Terrabyte Security

Mountain Town Mysteries, #2

by

Suspense and passion done right!

Terrabyte Security is the second book in Tena Stetler’s suspenseful and passion-filled Mountain Town Mysteries series, and cases involving returning characters and new ones combine for an intriguing return to the small town of Aspen Ridge. With business booming and romance blossoming, I was hooked by the latest cases and enjoyed the story from start to finish. 

While Candle Bearclaw and her new husband, Miacoh, are the main protagonists of the series, this new adventure focuses on their friend, employee, and confirmed bachelor, Cayson Eriksson. However, Molly Malone Reacher, a new client and the apparent victim of identity theft and a stalker, might just be the woman to change Cayson’s personal status. Although they experience an immediate attraction to each other, both resist following through initially, but they realize quickly that there’s something special between them. The resulting passion is a scorcher. 

I was absorbed by the intricate plot, which presents multiple mysteries to unravel. One of these mysteries involves Ben Alrich, the husband of Candle’s best friend, Gabby. The tension surrounding his disappearance was particularly intense, and Gabby’s distress was truly heart-wrenching. New client Molly’s situation is complex, with a couple of theories to pursue as to who is behind her troubles. One such theory involves the thesis she was working on for her degree, and, if the statistics about missing Indigenous women cited in the story are correct, they are absolutely shocking. This complexity and suspense will keep readers on the edge of their seats. 

Between the compelling plot and slow-burn romance, I couldn’t put this book down. I recommend TERRABYTE SECURITY to readers of adult romantic suspense.
