Dana Mason

Finding Bailey is an emotional roller coaster ride. As the author takes you through an intense story of kidnapping, abandonment and angst. The heroine must come to grip with a past she knew nothing about. Bailey and Ryan are just friends having grown up together as next door neighbors. They spent as much time in each other's homes as they did their own. Small town living at its best and worst with everyone knowing each other. When Helen Bailey's mom died everything came crushing down.

Character development and storyline will keep you riveted to your seat as you try to keep up with the twists and turns of the story. All of the characters are true to life and you will not want this book to end. The author is a story teller of the first order and you will want to read more of her books. The pace and rhythm of the book comes to a convincing end and was not rushed.

I found this book well developed a mystery and continued to build that mystery right to the end. The emotions stirred by the clues and incidents bring the reader to an exciting end, well worth the time and read! I look forward to reading another book by this author!

I was so happy to learn Dana Mason had a new romantic suspense novel in the works! I loved her Embrace series and could hardly wait to read another romance with enough suspense to keep me on the edge of my seat while I forgot about the rest of the world.

Finding Bailey does NOT disappoint. It’s got everything: great characters you really care about, a compelling story line with a lot of dark twists, some surprises and heavy family baggage, a nasty ex-boyfriend. And then there’s Ryan, who quickly became one of my favorite boyfriends! It’s hard not to cheer for Ryan and Bailey as they deal with Bailey’s past, her present danger, and the growing realization that the two of them are made for each other.

Mason creates a community of caring friends, the kind of people you want to have supporting you (and Mason does such a good job describing her characters that they do feel like friends.) I did not want this book to end, and I hope to see Bailey and Ryan again soon, along with the rest of their Lake Tahoe friends. Let’s hope Finding Bailey is the first of a series!
