I'm a big fan of the McKenna's Haven series, and in my opinion, Colt's Hope is the weakest link of the series. That being said, however, I still liked it and thought it was a good book. I think the couple highlighted in this book, Colt and Ellie, were just a little larger than life for me. Colt is a wealthy, famous, eccentric best-selling author, and I just couldn't relate to him as much as I could other characters in this series. Same with Ellie, -she's been working undercover for the FBI for years and at first glance, looks to be a hardened, tattooed, drug-using, who knows what, biker chick of the toughest kind. It's funny, because years ago, I actually lived next door to an undercover cop who looked like a murderer at best, --so to me, her character was believable to an extent. Still, they were both very extreme characters in very extreme circumstances. I still liked the story of them being drawn together, and the feelings that developed between them were heartfelt and touching. I definitely recommend as part of this series. Even though this was my least favorite of the series, I'm sure it will probably be someone's else favorite. It's well written and clever.
