ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 17, 2025

A surprise single dad, small town romantic suspense…

I’m the last guy on the planet who should be a dad. My life is chaos. My sins written dark and deep. So, imagine my surprise when my doorbell rings and I open it to find the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen standing on the other side. And she’s holding the hand of a little girl who looks just like me.

Emery tells me her sister, the child’s mother, is dead. I feel like dirt since she’s a woman I can hardly remember, and it’s no wonder Emery doesn’t trust that I’m worthy of caring for her niece. But I can’t turn my back, and I insist on raising Maci. So, we strike a deal—she’ll stay with me for one month to ensure the little girl is safe.

Emery tries to hate me for who I am, but neither of us can resist the attraction that blazes between us. One brush of her hand, and she has me on my knees. One kiss, and I’m falling fast. Soon, we find ourselves tangled in my sheets.

But when it’s discovered her sister’s death wasn’t accidental, the secret life I’ve been living collides with the past Emery has tried to keep hidden. And when the fiends come back to finish the job they started, I’m in a race against time to save the two people who I’ve come to love most…

REVIEW:“Find me in the darkness, bring me to the light.”

Ms. Jackson has delivered yet another amazing addition to the Moonlit Ridge series with the latest story, At the Edge of Surrender. Kane and Emery’s story along with little Maci is one that will stick with you at night, begging to be read again. As always, I recommend reading the series in order to get the most out of it, but each book can be read as a standalone in the interconnected series.

When the unknown happens what is a guy to do? When Emery floats into Moonlit Ridge with shadows in her eyes and pain in her heart, she blows poor Kane’s basic life right out of the water. He has a daughter, one that he never knew about, one that doesn’t know him. When he learns that Maci’s mother has passed recently and that he is the only parent she has left, Kane has a choice. Step up, or step out. Given his line of business, the latter isn’t even an option, but given his dangerous lifestyle, is he even capable of giving little Maci the life that she deserves. Better yet, will Emery let him try? Together, Kane and Emery agree on a trice of one month, where they move in with him, and Kane must prove to Emery that he can be what Maci needs. Now the only problem, how to avoid the connection and chemistry they both feel.

I just love a single dad romance! Kane has to be the most protective guy in the bunch so far. It may take him time to let down the walls to those around him and trust, but when he does, he protects that love with everything he has in him. The connection Kane and Emery have with one another is one that they fight tooth and nail, they know what is at stake and they don’t want to rush into anything that will hurt Maci in the long run. These two are complicated and secretive, neither wanting to give anything away to the other at first, but when things slowly start to unravel, neither have a choice. Together they have to protect Maci. Slowly as the plot progresses, the suspense builds until finally we learn what’s, what, the climax has a nice twist to it, keeping the reader on their toes to the very end.

Kane, Emery and Maci were a very nice addition to the Moonlit Ridge saga, and I hope to see more from this sleepy little town before it’s gone. Watching Kane bond with Maci was sweet and moving, the spicy bits of course are fan favorites, and seeing the characters from the previous two books was like visiting with old friends. For readers that enjoy a small town, mystery romance, Moonlit Ridge is a great series to start with.
