Relentless Dawn by Jannine Gallant

A chance encounter awakens a nightmare from her past—recollections that could prove fatal . . .

In a small Montana town, Blythe Young runs into the man who murdered her parents—triggering long buried childhood memories. When she discovers the killer is a local deputy with an influential ally, she’s forced to flee. Escaping into Yellowstone National Park, Blythe loses herself in the rugged backcountry where she crosses paths with another lone hiker. Unsure whom she can trust, Blythe warily relies on the handsome stranger.

While backpacking in Yellowstone to sooth his battered soul, Jake Mansfield encounters a desperate young woman. She’s everything he doesn’t need in his life—a terrified beauty who tempts him to risk his heart again. Jake’s endured enough tragedy to last a lifetime, but turning Blythe away isn’t an option. Especially when he learns he has an unwitting connection to the horror of her past. Together, they must uncover the identity of a ruthless and powerful man . . . before Blythe becomes the final casualty.
