But that's the easy part. Once he finds her, can he convince her to stay? The plot is suspenseful and has some eyebrow-raising Dixie Lee Brown lives and writes in Central Oregon, inspired by gorgeous scenery and sunny days a year. Having moved from South Dakota as a child to Montana and then to Oregon, she feels at home in the west. Dixie has two daughters that are grown and off living their own dreams. She resides with two dogs and a cat, and they are currently all the responsibility she can handle!
Dixie Lee Brown has delivered another action-filled romance that will grip you and leave you watching the calendar for the next installment of this series. The plot is suspenseful and has some eyebrow-raising revelations that add unexpected twists to keep the story from being predictable.
In the midst of the danger, the hero and heroine struggle to rekindle their stalled relationship, which has never really progressed beyond friendship althoughtheir feelings for each other run much deeper. Rayna and Ty do have one explicit, sizzling love scene that is also sweet because their union is based upon more than just lust. When Andre Komarov abducts Rayna as a means of blackmail, Ty and the rest of the team come to her rescue, and Ty must deal with his unresolved connection to this ruthless criminal. Even though Ty worries he may lose Rayna once his secrets are revealed, he is still determined to protect her until Andre is no longer a threat.
Much of the action is focused on rescuing Rayna from multiple kidnappings which eventually becomes overkill. However, the climactic final showdown between Ty and Andre is great and kept me riveted the entire time. Rayna and Ty are surrounded by a great cast of characters. The heroes from the previous books, Joe and Walker, continue to play prominent roles in the series, and I like being able to stay connected to these characters.
I do plan to backtrack and read the first book so I can fully experience the entirety of this series, yet, I also think readers can still enjoy If You Only Knew without having read the previous novels. The first half of this book I did not like Ty at all.. He was a whiny crybaby about Rayna leaving him.
She apologized numerous times, said she wanted another chance and he ignored her and kept crying about her leaving. I wanted to smack him.
But thankfully he snapped out of it and I grew to like him a lot. The book was action packed from the beginning and I loved the story line. Dixie is one of my favorite authors and I look forward to more books from her. You showed the truth, that they are all not bad and should not be judged and found guilty solely on their appearance. They are good dogs and are only what we made them to be, now its up to us to try and correct what we have done and give them a chance.
Even a dog used in fighting can be a loving wonderful companion. See all 52 reviews.

Feb 10, Camille Flores rated it liked it. Rayla and Ty have been together, building friendship and possibly love, while being part of a mercenary team. Ty, on the other hand, has decided to leave thei 3. Ty, on the other hand, has decided to leave their mercenary team as well, not only because his past might put everyone he cares for in danger, but because the very place where they live remind him so much of Rayla and that, he could bear no more.
But a video sent to their leader, one showing Rayla in captivity by a Russian mafia boss, one who wants something very badly from Ty, his heart leaves no room for doubts or recriminations, only the desire to save the woman he has loved for a while now. I really like the mix of romance, suspense, and action in this book. The pacing went so well and at times it had me at the edge of my seat in anticipation of what will happen next. What I like about the romance between Ty and Rayla is that they already know each other. But as the story progresses, the readers also get a pretty good look at what was tearing them apart and it was really entertaining watching them do a kind of cha-cha dance with their feelings.
Being insecure, then hurt, overcoming the past, and then braving through it all because what could be more important than living a life with the one you love? The mystery behind the man who is hunting Ty down because he wants something from him was also developed well. In this case, even when it was already revealed, the author was still able to give off the feeling that it might just be a revelation on the surface and that something must still be lurking underneath.
The villain might be a villain but the author fleshes him out too so the story does not make it like the main couple are against the ultimate evil. There was a bit of lag in some of the scenes just because it seems like a particular plot was just being repetitive at times.

But the elements did build up nicely towards the climax so it was still good. If you like some suspense and action in your romance read, I heartily suggest reading this book. The connection between our main couple is sizzling and the high-stakes and high-adrenaline circumstances that they find themselves in this book surely add nicely to the tension and conflict that they have to overcome, which is a pretty good read to me. Camille Girl meets Books Oct 02, Pauline Frost rated it it was amazing.
I loved this story. Well written, perfectly paced with strong characters. Keeps your interest from beginning to end with all the twists and turns. Could not put it down. Feb 15, Gaele rated it liked it Shelves: The third in this series, I had no issues picking right up with the action or understanding what was happening: Dixie Lee Brown manages to keep a solid storyline with tension peaking like mountaintops, giving readers little time to relax. Rayna is reserved and frightened: Ty is all alpha, and determined to protect Rayna and keep The third in this series, I had no issues picking right up with the action or understanding what was happening: Ty is all alpha, and determined to protect Rayna and keep her safe, even in the face of some pretty steep odds.
But, while their relationship and chemistry was off the chain, the push-pull from Rayna had me wanting to shake her silly. Yes — I was right, but the ride to the end was tons of fun and kept me turning pages. I received an eArc copy of the title from the publisher via Edelweiss for purpose of honest review for Tasty Book Tour. I was not compensated for this review: Aug 12, Molly rated it it was amazing. The story starts out with Rayna Dugan having suffered the loss of her parents and older brother and who knows how she can handle any more loss.
So she has decided to cut ties with Ty Whitlcok before she falls any further in love with him because he has a very dangerous job and she can't face losing someone else. Ty's whole world comes crashing down when Rayna lies and tells him she does not love him anymore and is ready to leave and go off to college.
He had hopes and dreams of eventually having The story starts out with Rayna Dugan having suffered the loss of her parents and older brother and who knows how she can handle any more loss. He had hopes and dreams of eventually having the white picket fence and the loving wife and Rayna fit that picture perfectly.
If You Only Knew
But when he gets called into his bosses office and witnesses a "proof-of-life" video from Rayna's kidnappers and receives very specific instructions to follow in-order to keep her alive he knows his past has finally caught up with him and its about to ruin everything he has ever dreamed about. This was such a great book I stayed up all night reading it. As soon as I saw this was being toured, I jumped at the chance. Rayna and Ty are a part of the team that works with the characters from the previous two novels. For fear of giving spoilers away, I will say what I like the most about this book.
When the past comes back and Rayna gets caught in the cross fire, Ty's loyalty brings on the team that we all know and love if we have read the series. I really hope there are more in this series. Jul 19, Merle rated it liked it Shelves: Reyna Dugan fought her way into the team afeter her brother, team member Charlie, was killed. She was only interested in revenge. Ty, one of the other team members, falls hard for Rayna. She keeps him at arm's length since she doesn't want anything to interfere with her revenge.
Ty is not willing to let her go, even though she only wants to be "friends".
See a Problem?
He swallows the hurt she causes and lets her leave to go to school and then to medical school which is what Charlie wanted for her. However, when she leaves, she unwittingly gets caught up in Ty's past, which is not known to a lot of people. Twisting and turning its way through the plot, the affection these two, and the rest of the team, have for each other isn't blatant, but it's there in their actions.
Alex is back and the foreshadowing of a new story shows up. Jan 07, Danielle Gypsy Soul rated it it was ok Shelves: I was really disappointed because I really enjoyed the first two in this series. However, Rayna drove me crazy! First of all she kept making stupid decisions, getting kidnapped or hurt and then falling apart.
I can understand why she'd be really upset but then Ty would try to take care of her or not tell her information that would upset her and she'd get furious. Or she would want to come along to get the bad guy when she just finished falling apart and couldn't understand why he didn't want her I was really disappointed because I really enjoyed the first two in this series. Or she would want to come along to get the bad guy when she just finished falling apart and couldn't understand why he didn't want her to. Also these two couldn't communicate to save their lives, in fact what they said was rarely what they wanted or at least I think because frankly I was confused about it half way through the book.
Sep 29, Debra Jones added it. If You Only Knew is a very well written book that grabbed my attention from the 1st word and held it until the last word. I had to stop reading every now and then but immediately came back to it. I absolutely loved this book.
Brown has managed to write this story in such a way that this reader had no problem whatsoever to be able to picture the characters in my mind as I read. I was able to picture the whole story as I read. This is definitely a book that I will be re-readi Fantastic read!!! This is definitely a book that I will be re-reading and will be recommending it to others to enjoy.
