My Review:
High Noon is the fourth book in the High Stakes Saga and cannot be read as a stand alone. It begins where book three left off.
When the assets land this time, they find themselves in the Old West. It’s wild and dangerous and conflict abounds. But and even greater danger seems to be surrounding Eve than usual. She finds herself the controversial visitor in a Lakota tribe . . . who have had visions of her and now want to see if she has visions herself.
Battling to stay alive from the Nephilim as well as Abram, Eve also finds herself dealing with disturbing visions of her possible future, preparing to face unknown threats when she is pulled back to her own time and an unknown illness that may kill her faster than the known threats out to get her. She can only hope and have faith that when she makes a choice, she makes the right one for everyone.
Ohhh, High Noon . . . hot damn. While I’ve come to expect the unexpected from this series, High Noon really took that to the next level. Honestly, this book had so many plot twists and OMG moments that it was a non-stop thrill ride that is steamrolling straight to the conclusion, High Treason!
I really loved the addition of the Native American aspects to this saga. It added a phenomenal level of depth. As always, I loved watching the play between Eve and Enoch and really hope that when they make it back to Eve’s time, there is a way for them to have a HEA . . . although after some of the reveals in High Noon, I’m wondering if that can possibly happen.
The High Stakes Saga is stunningly unique in a world of formulaic PNR and I love every suspenseful moment of this series and cannot wait to see how the journey ends in High Treason. 5 stars.

Blurb:
Historians weren’t being modest when they described the settling of the western frontier as wild. That means with Eve’s record of landing in the most inhospitable locales, of course she drops right in the middle of an unforgiving land, rife with conflict and fueled by desperation. Though a treaty was signed between the Native Americans and the settlers who continued to pour into the west in droves, a tension lays over the land, as thick as the blood being spilt over it.
But there are more than just gun fights and saloons scattered across the barren plains; there is an ancient source of magic known to its inhabitants that predicts a very disturbing image of Eve’s future. Battling her thirst to return home against her desire to stay with the man she loves, she must fight to ensure that what was predicted never comes true, and safeguard against becoming the thing she hates the most…

It’s been fabulous. Vampires and time travel . . .sounds like it should be cheesy as can be, but it is the complete opposite!
