Logan’s neighbor has been attacked, and is clinging to life in ICU, while her 3 year old is the only one who knows anything. Logan has found her neighbor has been living a new life to escape a sadistic ex and is all in on supporting this little family.
As always, I’m eternally wowed by how much information Davisson fits into a story without any of it feeling out of place, feeling judgy and forceful with opinion, and without any stumbles with all of the stories woven into each addition to the series.

Honestly, I wouldn’t have guessed sea otters being the thing that could make Logan McKenna novels even better, but here we are. Logan has time with her daughter, Amy, when she comes home to get treatment for malaria and rest until she recovers. They find an orphaned sea otter and discover the Rescue Center when seeking help for its safety. In the midst of Logan volunteering and Amy establishing a group to care for the orphaned pup, there are battles of the legal sort and greed as well as injuries, B and E’s and a murder.
As a historically large storm approaches, Logan finds the victim and director and also notes the missing boat, sea otter, and daughter. She is desperate to find Amy and keep her safe, but she can’t do it alone. The community around Logan helps to solve the mystery!

Another win in the universe of Logan McKenna – at least in the wonderfully told story. It’s been 2 years since Logan was made a widow and learned of exactly how her life with her husband really was. She has been rebuilding her life step by step, and even is feeling out a very new relationship. Logan decides to treat herself with a trip to Portland, OR and is having a wonderful time – until an explosion rocks a food truck near her hotel, and she finds she knows people involved and a woman who died in the fire. Logan is worried as no one is giving her new friend, the owner of the food truck, a fair opportunity to have the case solved. The cops are refusing any conversation, assuming things instead of investigating, and Logan has to help. Another case of Logan and her incredible attention to detail, Davisson’s effortless streamlining one string of a storyline with the others and teaching you things without bias in a pretty incredible way.

Having read a couple of later Logan series novels as my introduction to her fantastic stories, I felt she was like an old friend who had suffered trauma in her past. Reading this filled in so much more and was so well written. There are multiple characters with well understood storylines without muddying up the journey – expertly woven and playing off one another throughout the story.
Logan McKenna hears of a car accident that has taken the life of her husband. While she considered THIS the life altering scenario that shattered her, she suffers through so much more – the box that appears on her doorstep from her husband’s mistress on the day of his funeral, sharing every dirty detail of the betrayal – to the selling the parts of the computer/tech company the two of them had built up together, to just learning to live a new life without both her husband and their company. Logan takes a job as a teacher, and is excellent at it…so good, in fact, that her students perform exceptionally well on their tests and a jealous fellow teacher accuses her of cheating to make herself look good. She truly fears she will lose her job over the accusation.
Buying a new house is a move to help her find herself and relax into this new life – but now she has heard a close friend has been accused of the horrific murder at a festival. Thomas refuses to talk about it at all, even to defend himself, the cops have found evidence of payments between the victim and Thomas, and Logan can’t help but try to get to the bottom of it to save her friend. As the situation gets progressively more dangerous, Logan proves herself strong and capable throughout the book. Will she catch the killer? Is it Thomas, or will she redeem him?
