Genre: Romantic Suspense

When the FBI sidelines Special Agent Stephanie Kramer over health concerns, she sees her hard-won dream career go down the drain. Suddenly adrift and without purpose, she jumps at the chance when a friend offers for her to stay in their trailer by a quiet, secluded creek near Libby, Montana. As much as she tries to enjoy the tranquil settings, it’s not long before local wildlife—and the man chasing it—invade her sanctuary. When it appears the job she’s trying to leave behind is following her to Libby, the illusion of her solitary retreat is shattered.
After that last special ops assignment cost Jackson Hart his leg, he’s had a hell of a time getting back on his proverbial feet. Being hired as a member of the High Mountain Trackers team went a long way to reclaiming his sense of identity. He’s back in the saddle and adapting to a pared-down, mostly solitary existence. So the sudden jolt to his gut, when he encounters the blond federal agent he remembers well, is a harsh reminder of what is missing from his life.
Still, as much as they try to avoid the other, they seem destined to cross paths. Whether it is the intimidation of a local predator, or the threat of a former nemesis, it becomes clear they stand stronger together.

The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . HIGH VELOCITY (High Mountain Trackers: HMT 2G, #4) . . . Shattered Careers and Second Chances: An Explosive Finale!
"I am not ready for this series to end. I have loved both High Mountain Trackers (original and HMT 2G)," and this latest installment delivers a fantastic blend of emotional depth and thrilling suspense!
HIGH VELOCITY brings together two fiercely competent people struggling to reclaim their identities. Special Agent Stephanie Kramer is sidelined by the FBI over health concerns, watching her hard-won dream career go down the drain. She retreats to Libby, Montana, seeking a quiet sanctuary, only to find her life is about to be invaded—both by danger and by a protective hero.
That hero is Jackson Hart, a member of the High Mountain Trackers team who is fighting his own battle to reclaim his sense of self after a special ops assignment cost him his leg. Being back in the saddle as a Tracker helps, but his solitary existence is suddenly jolted by a harsh reminder of what is missing from his life when he encounters the blonde federal agent he remembers well.
The attraction is undeniable, and the stakes are real! As you mentioned, Jackson and Stephanie find themselves working together, with the chance to have more than just a working relationship. And as per usual, Freya Barker makes this a romance with suspense tapping on the doors at almost every turn. They may not be able to do their job in their chosen professions anymore, but protection is their specialty. Whether it's the threat of a former nemesis or an intimidation of a local predator, they stand stronger together and will absolutely get the job done.
If this is indeed the end of the line for HMT 2G, it’s a high-impact conclusion that beautifully wraps up the themes of sacrifice, healing, and finding a new purpose in love.
