A WILD HOPE

Wild animals can't be tamed—a traumatic lesson Katie Vincent had learned firsthand as a child. So when her estranged father passes away, she has no choice but to sell his beloved zoo to an animal park in Arizona. But when the park's director, Luke Rittenhouse, reports that the panther she'd hand-raised is dying, he threatens to return all the animals unless she comes and nurses the panther back to health.

Katie has to try to save the big cat, even though she knows she's doomed to fail. She hasn't worked with animals in more than a decade…and she has an immobilizing fear of them since the accident. But Luke believes everything deserves a chance—even Katie. And if she can let go of her fear, he might just be the one who rescues her.

Pamela Tracy is an award-winning author from Arizona, where she lives with her husband (He claims to be the inspiration for most of her heroes) and son (He claims to be the interference for most of her writing time.) She was raised in Omaha, Nebraska, and started writing at a very young age (a series of romances, all with David Cassidy as the hero. Sometimes Bobby Sherman would interfere). Then, while earning a BA in Journalism at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas, she picked up the pen again only this time, it was an electric typewriter on which she wrote a very bad science fiction novel.)

Finally published in 1999, Pamela has since published twenty-three more books, both in suspense and contemporary romance. Her most recent is Once Upon a Christmas a Harlequin Love Inspired. Her next release "The Christmas Proposal" in the anthology A Timeless Christmas will be a November 2019 release. In 2009, she took first place in the American Christian Fiction Writer's Book of the Year short suspense contest. In 2008, she was a RITA finalist.

Pamela spends days as an English professor. Besides being involved in her church, writing, teaching, and taking care of her family, she is often asked to speak at various writers' organizations in the Phoenix area. She belongs to Romance Writers of America, Sisters in Crimes, and she is the past president of the local chapter of the American Christian Fiction Writer's Association.

I love stories set in Arizona so that was the first ...

I love stories set in Arizona so that was the first draw this book had for me. Throw in great characters, animals, twists and turns, and this book is a great read. If you're a fast reader, you can finish it in a day or two. I did. I love the way the author, Pamela Tracy, has of making the reader feel a part of the story.

I really enjoyed Katie's story. Will there be a sequel? I would love to see one.

The interaction between the characters and animals made me feel all of their emotions.

"Hatari" in Arizona

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 18, 2014

"Hatari", an old John Wayne movie, was a favorite of mine when I was a kid. I loved the scene when the heroine was trying to run away and hide from John, trailed by three baby elephants wreaking havoc in the African city. While "Katie's Rescue" in no way follows the plot of "Hatari", it does evoke its spirit - the love of wild animals and the respect for their very wildness even if they have been rescued and now must live in close proximity to humans. It also has a cast of colorful characters, all with their own traumas, foibles, and desires, and like the movie, it's a heartwarming story.

'Katie's Rescue' is set in a small zoo in Arizona, formerly owned by Katie's deceased father. Katie has made a new life as a teacher and interpreter for the deaf. She mothers her younger sister, intent on getting the would-be-party-girl through college. One day she receives a call for help--the panther Katie hand-raised is dying. She is caught between a rock and a hard place--she has guaranteed the health of all the animals and the new owner threatens to return them if she doesn't help. But Katie witnessed a panther attack her sister when they were children and she is now terrified of animals.

"Bridget's Animal Park" is a small zoo, named for Luke's beloved sister, who died of Down's Syndrome. She loved this zoo and its animals. That's why Luke left a career in marketing and never looked back. His big heart sometimes gets him in trouble. He always says yes when an animal needs rescue, whether it's an anaconda, a camel, a bear cub, a lion, or an eagle. It seems he collects humans the same way--Jasper, the holocaust survivor and circus veteran; Fred, the retired veterinarian; Ruth, the elderly widow who 'knows where the bodies are buried'; or Meredith, the young animal-keeper, intent on advancing her career. Is it Luke's job she's after?

Enter Katie, with a passel of fears and a fair share of buried anger. Even Luke can't save them all. And leading with your heart isn't always good business. The zoo is running out of operating capital. Will "Bridget's Animal Park" survive?

I cared about the characters in "Katie's Rescue" and enjoyed this layered tale with its underlying themes of facing your fears, being willing to take risks, laying aside anger, and forgiving those who have hurt us. With several smiles and a couple tears, it is book that will be enjoyed by fans of Debbie Macomber, Rachel Hauck, and Judy Duarte.
