Product Description:
Devon Brady is a devoted veterinarian working in a makeshift hospital on a remote search and rescue mission. When a man arrives with his wounded black Lab named Ned, Devon has no idea that she’s about to be plunged into a whirlwind of terror and destruction…
Jude Marrock is out for revenge—and he has no choice but to involve Devon in a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game with an escalating body count. She doesn’t trust Jude one bit… but when the shots start flying and friends start falling, Devon finds herself with nowhere else to run. And there are innocent lives, both human and animal, at stake, including Ned and his mysterious pack. Is Jude her salvation or her damnation? Are the secrets he’s protecting worth killing for—or dying for?

Being a dog lover and thoroughly enjoying a story with engaging characters and a story that pulls my imagination along with every scene, every question, and every revelation, I must say I very much enjoyed this story. A delightful vacation for my mind. At the end of the book I was smiling, happy and hoping Iris Johansen had written more books like this one.

I read about the plot of Dark Summer somewhere: probably the New York Times Book Review. I thought that it sounded intriguing--ordinary person gets swept up into extraordinary circumstances. I always enjoy books or movies that start with that pattern. Unfortunately this book turned out to be a disappointment. Poorly written and populated by two dimensional characters, it became more and more of a grind to read as I progressed. Worst of all was a plot that was ridiculously implausible. Dark ... Read More

What in the world has happened to Iris Johansen? Her earlier books are some of my all-time favorites, but her past few have been terrible. This one was no exception. Neither of the main characters were likable at all. I could have cared less about them, and I just wanted to tell them both to get over themselves. The dialogue was choppy, repetitive, and silly. I seriously wanted to gag at some of the lines. The plot was pointless and way too far-fetched. If you want to read good romantic suspense, ... Read More

Have been a Johansen fan for years! Usually snatch her books up right away and impatiently await next one. Was disappointed in Dark Summer. Didn't fit in to any of the other books; was hum drum. Hopefully; next one will take me back to the fast pace excitement she usually creates.

Her editor needs to reign her in. Her last two books have had at least one of her characters exclaiming "dammit" in almost every conversation! Didn't waste my time counting, but it was a ridiculous amount - I was saying a lot more than that every time I came across another one. Perhaps she thinks it's cute; it's not, it's "damn" annoying. I will not waste my time on another one of her books. Too many authors, too little time.
