Book Description:
Twenty year old Lane Montgomery never imagined her usually boring summer in the boonies would require her to trade her toe shoes for hunting boots or her monotonous college textbooks for treasure map deciphering. Never would she have imagined after breaking her grandmother’s precious Native American statue, danger, a lost treasure of Cherokee Gold and a hostage situation would arise. Nor could she predict that the one man destined to protect her and her family was her childhood nemesis and former crush, Maddox Diaz.
Returning after three years in the Army, twenty-three year old Maddox Diaz is confronted with more than he bargained for when agreeing to help his childhood buddy and deepest regret, Lane. Suddenly he is thrust into a dangerous game of cat and mouse with armed and ruthless treasure seekers that results in car chases and gun battles all in the presence of the one girl who still manages to haunt his dreams and drive him wild with desire.
Lane is determined to deny the sizzling chemistry with the man who stole her virginity and broke her heart. She just wants to stay alive with her heart intact. Will she be able to resist the man whose body sets fire to all her senses?

Review:
Search Me by Katie Ashley is a fairly quick, suspenseful and action-packed story from the very talented Katie Ashley. The story is told from the point of view of Lane, a young dance teacher who is spending her summer in the mountains of north Georgia, as she has done since she was a young girl. She is reunited with Maddox (love the name!), who was her first love and who also happened to break her heart when she was younger:
“When it comes down to it, you’ve always been the one, Maddox. Since I was fourteen years old, there’s never been another for for me, and there never will be.”
Lane and Maddox quickly wind up with a treasure map. Much drama ensures as Lane and Maddox end up on the run from villains who are also trying to get the map. Search Me is a fast-paced and suspenseful book, with a little romance, too! There is also a nice history lesson in here which was very enjoyable. All in all, Katie Ashley delivers an engrossing story with interesting characters that is lots of fun to read!
