Since then, life has left her scarred. The abuse she suffered in the foster care system, her first love's betrayal, and the jaguar attack that nearly destroyed her career have led to an unshakable distrust—in men, in God, and maybe even in herself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter fifteen years, returning to her hometown is a last resort to finding her life again. She's hoping the wildlife refuge where she's accepted a veterinarian job will be the perfect place to heal from her recent traumas and unlock her memories about the night her parents died. But the day she arrives at The Sanctuary, a body is discovered on the grounds. Soon, a series of deadly events threatens not only her future, but the man who, despite all odds, still makes her pulse stutter. Arson, a shooting, a break-in, and multiple instances of animals being freed from their enclosures all point back to him, but Paradise knows Blake Lawson isn't responsible. Not the man who has been helping his mother manage The Sanctuary these past six months and care for his stepbrothers in the wake of their father's death... even if his betrayal years ago cost her everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSomeone dangerous is lurking beneath the town's moss-draped trees, and Paradise refuses to let another murderer disappear into the shadows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColleen Coble's \u003cem\u003eAmbush\u003c\/em\u003e is just what her readers want—edge-of-your-seat suspense perfectly balanced with closed-door romance.
