It doesn't seem to matter what genre or the length of the book Dana Mentink delivers a good story every time. This time around it's a full-size Love Inspired set in the cold and harsh environment of Yosemite National Park.
As with her previous books in this genre, edge-of-your-seat suspense along with some pretty good romantic sparks drive Trapped In Yosemite forward. Between natural disasters and the elements our intrepid hero and heroine dodge bullets and attraction as they try to protect her baby and solve a mysterious murder.
I've long been fascinated by natural disasters like hurricanes, volcanoes, tornadoes, and by earthquakes. I had no idea when I started Trapped In Yosemite that it would feature a massive earthquake as a major plot point. I pretty much picked it up because it was both a Love Inspired novel and, more importantly, it's a Dana Mentink book. As usual the author did a great job getting me into the story and keeping there with her special blend of romantic suspense and natural disaster adventure.
I totally enjoyed reading Trapped In Yosemite and I am definitely looking forward to both more from Love Inspired Suspense and from Dana Mentink â�" and it's even better when those two come together....

An uplifting ending!
Trapped in Yosemite by Dana Mentink starts off with a bang. I thought the author captured the setting of Yosemite National Park. I was unable to connect with the two main characters, Stella and Von. I did not like Stella�s deceit and her justifications. Vonn was a tough nut to crack. I did like seeing the characters grow (personally, emotionally, and spiritually) by the end of the story. There are a number of characters introduced. It takes time to learn about them and keep them straight (which does not help the pacing). The way the characters talked and acted, it made me believe that Trapped in Yosemite was part of a series (it�s not). After the action at the beginning, the story slowed down for a spell. I was happy that the pace picked up in the second half along with the suspense. I did not enjoy the scenes where the two main characters evade discussing their feelings and Stella avoids telling Von about their baby (while everyone around them knows about it). There is tension, lies, gunshots, and extreme weather. Stella and Von work to uncover why someone wants to kill Stella. Faith is woven throughout the story. Two of the main themes are redemption and second chances. My favorite character in the story was Von�s dog, Bear. Trapped in Yosemite had an uplifting and satiating ending.

Great Romantic Suspense
With dozens of books to her name, surprisingly Dana Mentink is a new-to-me author. I will be on the look out for her titles in the future. Trapped in Yosemite is a wonderful suspense novel. I don't usually like books in which the romance develops too quickly, in this book that wasn't an issue as Von Sharpe and Stella Rivers has once been engaged. That ended eighteen months before an earthquake and a murderer threw them back together. Finding their way in extreme circumstances and adjusting to the changes that had occurred in their lives over their time apart both helped and hindered in defining their new relationship, or if there was ever to be a relationship. Being trapped at the Mountain Dog Wilderness Guides Camp with dwindling resources, fractious campers, and a murderer lurking about with his sights on Stella, caused a roller coaster of emotions in both Von and Stella, and that wasn't even the half of it! Mentink has written a believable suspense story that highlights God's grace and His willingness to give repentant people second chances, something we need to be willing to do as well.
I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy of Trapped in Yosemite from Harlequin via NetGalley without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own.
