ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 5, 2022

Manager for Hart’s Horse Rescue, Lucy Lenoir, finally feels she has a handle on life after having worked hard to leave her old one behind. So hard, there are times she almost forgets what she escaped. Memories which suddenly come flooding back when she catches a glimpse of a familiar horseman in town.

What’s worse, he’s in the company of the unlikely cowboy she’s only just beginning to trust.

High Mountain Tracker, Bo Rivera, tries hard never to repeat his mistakes. A huge one changed the course of his life and made him particularly cautious, especially around women. So much so, he almost passed up on the best thing to ever walk into his life; the compact, blonde ballbuster in need of a gentle hand.

However, the more he learns about her, the more he realizes a soft touch alone won’t keep her demons at bay. Those will need a firmer hand…to keep the gun steady.

•••••

REVIEW: HIGH IMPACT is the fourth instalment in Freya Barker’s contemporary, adult HIGH MOUNTAIN TRACKERS romantic suspense series focusing on a group of former US Special Forces soldiers who own and work for High Mountain Trackers in Libby, Montana. This is forty-four year old tracker Bo Rivera, and thirty-eight year old Hart’s Horse Rescue manager Lucy Lenoir’s story line. HIGH IMPACT can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Lucy and Bo) HIGH IMPACT follows in the wake of the rescue of a mother goat and her kids, a rescue that sees Lucy the target of some questionable attacks forcing Bo Rivera to take control, offering his protection to the woman that stars in his fantasies and dreams. When the original owner of the goats is found dead, Lucy becomes the prime suspect, followed by another threat against the animals Lucy so desperately works to foster and protects. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Lucy and Bo, and the potential fall-out as the attacks against Lucy begin to play out a familiar scenario.

Lucy Lenoir has a secret past one that she slowly but reluctantly reveals to our story line hero. As Bo Rivera begins to dig into the circumstances of Lucy’s past, Bo himself must come clean with his secrets about the past. The relationship between Bo and Lucy begins acrimoniously but Bo has lusted after Lucy for as long as he can remember but getting past Lucy’s barriers means letting go of his own demons in the dark. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including ranch and High Mountain Trackers owner Jonas Harvey and his wife Alexandra Hart; Fletch Boone and Nella Freling: Jonas’ teammates James Watike, Sully Eckhart and Pippa Freling, as well as Jonas’ father Thomas Harvey, and FBI Agent Wolff. We are introduced to Bo’s mother Zuri. The requisite evil has many faces.

HIGH IMPACT is a story of obsession and ownership; power and control; betrayal and vengeance, love and acceptance, family friendships, and relationships. The fast paced premise is intriguing and entertaining; the characters are spirited and cheeky; the romance is seductive and provocative.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 8, 2022

Not much has gone according to plan for mechanic, Pippa Freling, recently. With lots of bridges burned behind her, she decides to stick close to her sister and give Montana a try.

Things are looking up when she joins a local group of animal activists, buys an auto shop for a steal, and even tries her luck with the opposite sex. But it doesn’t take long before her hopeful new future is derailed once again.
This time permanently.

Maintaining tight control is the stronghold in Sully Eckhart’s life. It served him well during his years in special forces and has kept him out of trouble since. But his self-restraint stretches only so far whenever he finds himself faced with the one woman who has the ability to shake his determination. A woman he’s tried to avoid for months—since the first time she shook his resolve—but who now finds herself in the middle of a serial murder case.

However, when she not only ends up a person of interest to the FBI, but firmly in the crosshairs of a killer, he has no other option but to stick close. And give up all control.

REVIEWHIGH GROUND is the third instalment in Freya Barker’s contemporary, adult HIGH MOUNTAIN TRACKERS, erotic, romantic suspense series focusing on a group of former US Special Forces soldiers who own and work for High Mountain Trackers in Libby, Montana.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 18, 2022.

When her sister, Pippa, goes missing, Nella Freling tells her boss she’s taking time off from her job as a research librarian, hops in her sensible van, and heads south of the border to Montana. However, local police don’t seem too concerned about a missing woman living in her motorhome. So Nella will have to look for Pippa by herself, unless she can convince a highly recommended tracker to help her, but sadly the rude and angry cowboy won’t even listen to her at first.

But Nella can be persuasive.

The first time High Mountain Tracker, Fletch Boone, laid eyes on Nella, her ass was stuck in his grocery cart. The next time was at the ranch; she was wearing mud, head to toe. But when he catches sight of her a third time, hanging off a cliff, he can’t turn his back again. What Nella lacks in survival skills she makes up for in sheer determination. Unfortunately, neither of those is enough protection when bullets start flying.

Fletch has no choice but to jump in before the woman gets herself killed.

And that would be a damn shame.

REVIEW:HIGH STAKES is the second instalment in Freya Barker’s contemporary, adult HIGH MOUNTAIN TRACKERS erotic, romantic suspenses series focusing on a group for former US Special Forces soldiers who own and work for High Mountain Trackers in Montana. This is forty-seven year old Fletch Boone, and forty-three year old researcher Nella Freling’s story line. HIGH STAKES can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Fletch and Nella) HIGH STAKES follows the search for missing Canadian hiker Pippa Freling. Nella Freling hasn’t heard from her sister in close to fourteen days, and with the advise of a friend, Nella arrives in Montana only to be greeted by a grumpy former warrior who wants nothing to do with our story line heroine but searching on her own means falling victim to the elements, and Fletch refuses to let another ‘hiker’ go missing on his watch. A sudden storm traps Nella and Fletch in a cave overnight but the discovery of tracks and some blood lead our couple to Nella’s missing but injured sister. As Nella struggles to make sense of what happened and why, our heroine begins an investigation of her own in the hopes of finding her sister’s RV, only to discover that all is not well in Libby, Montana. What ensues is the building relationship between Nella and Fletch, and the potential fall-out as the search for the truth places a target on our heroine’s back.

Fletch Boone doesn’t do relationships, and prefers to work on his own but a feisty woman with more energy than sense throws Fletch for a loop, and our hero knows that to leave Nella to her own devises could blow up in both of their faces. At every turn Nella is defying Fletch, and the local law enforcement, and in doing so finds herself risking her life to take down the people responsible.

The relationship between Fletch and Nella begins acrimoniously. Fletch doesn’t want anything to do with our story line heroine, or searching for a woman who is probably not lost but evidence begins to surface about the possibility of something much more dangerous going on, and Fletch refuses to let Nella go on her own. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters include ranch and High Mountain Trackers owner Jonas Harvey and his wife Alexandra Hart; Jonas’ teammates James Watike and his wife Ama, Bo, Sully Eckhart, as well as Jonas’ father Thomas Harvey. We are introduced to Nella’s sister Pippa. The requisite evil has many faces. Pippa and Sully’s story is next in HIGH GROUND.

HIGH STAKES is a story of family and friendships, love and desperation, betrayal and vengeance, acceptance and love. The premise is edgy, dramatic and entertaining; the romance is seductive and tender; the characters are sassy, energetic and determined.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 21, 2022

An emergency call to pick up an injured stallion on the side of the road sends Alexandra Hart, the new owner of Hart’s Horse Rescue, into action. A recent addition to the area, she is not impressed when the animal’s taciturn owner shows up. With his less-than-stellar disposition, he’s the kind of man she normally avoids at all costs, unfortunately, he owns the ranch just down the road.

However, when the manhunt for a pair of escaped prisoners gets a little too close for comfort, Jonas turns out to be a better neighbor than she expected.

The Alex who shows up at his ranch to help with his prize stud’s recovery is not exactly who Jonas Harvey expected. This is the same bleeding heart he met on the side of the road. Worried she’s not up for the job, he’d prefer to keep a close eye on her but his High Mountain Trackers team gets called in to track down a group of domestic terrorists.

But the slip of a woman proves him wrong. On all fronts. Alex not only charms his horses but him as well, and when trouble comes calling she proves to be a worthy ally to boot.

•••••••••

REVIEW: HIGH MEADOW is the firsts instalment in Freya Barker’s contemporary, adult HIGH MOUNTAIN TRACKERS romantic suspense series. This is fifty year old ex-special forces soldier and rancher Jonas Harvey, and horse rescue owner Alexandra Hart’s story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Jonas and Alexandria) HIGH MEADOW follows the building romance and relationship between fifty year old ex-special forces soldier and rancher Jonas Harvey, and horse rescue owner Alexandra Hart. An injured horse finds Alexandra Hart face to face with Jonas Harvey, a man whose first impression leaves something to be desired. Working together in an effort to ensure the recovery of Jonas’ horse, Jonas finds himself drawn to our story line heroine but Jonas and his former Special forces team mates also operate a search and rescue operation in Montana called High Mountain Trackers, and their latest assignment has the team going in search of escaped prisoners, prisoners possibly linked to home grown terrorism. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Jonas and Alex; the search for potential terrorists; the unexpected health concerns of Jonas’ father, and the dangerous mission that hits too close to home.

Alexandra Hart is a widow with a grown son but a woman who is equally capable of running her own business. Where Jonas struggles with the temperament of his own horses, Alex is able to calm the beast including our story line hero. Jonas Harvey served several tours overseas but was never able to completely leave the life behind. Owning and operating a search and rescue business, he and his former teammates are always on call, at a moments notice, and the hunt for a terrorist threatens the well-earned peace of everyone involved.

The relationship between Alex and Jonas begins acrimoniously as first impressions were equally awkward but Jonas quickly realized that his attitude may have been misplaced and directed at the woman with whom he would fall in love.Working side by side meant more time spent together, time where they would eventually fall in love. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including Alex’s friend and cook Lucy, and Alex’s son Jackson; veterinarian Dr. Evan; Jonas’ teammates James Watike and his wife Ama, Bo, Sully and Fletch Boone, as well as Jonas’ father Thomas Harvey. Fletch’s story line is next in HIGH STAKES. The requisite evil has many faces.

HIGH MEADOW is a story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, family, friendships, relationships and love. The character driven premise is intriguing, fascinating and compelling; the romance is seductive and captivating; the characters are energetic, determined, and strong.
