About book Running Scared (2010)

I had a very hard time getting into this book. I would read a few pages and get bored. Which is strange because I love her books. Eventually things picked up and I was able to read a bit more at a time. The book has all the elements of her other books with a second sight thrown in. Well the family is Irish! 15 years ago a young girl of a well off, blue blood family gets pregnant. The family makes an illegal, secret adoption agreement with a woman who just lost her own husband and child. She ends up in Oregon and has built a life for her and son. The family has decided they want him back and some will go to any lengths to make sure that does not happen. Although the title still fits this was more romance than scary suspense. Loved the cowboy character of Daegan and his willingness to grow and change as things happened in his life. Having Jon with his special ability to see the future added to the story and then kept me wondering when that was going to occur in the story. Lots of minor characters that actually got developed and added to the events.
