Take a Hike

by Katie Ruggle

2025

Charlie Pax heads to Simpson, Colorado, hoping to flush her fugitive mother out of hiding before her family loses everything. There she teams up with firefighter and murder suspect Kieran Byrne, and the trap gets complicated fast.

Series background & context

Beneath the Wild Sky is best understood as the next stretch of the Pax sisters' story. These books pick up after the earlier bounty-hunter novels and keep following the family into rough country, quirky mountain towns, and messes that refuse to stay small. The tone is a little lighter and more openly adventurous, but the stakes are still real, and the family trouble is still very much in motion.

The series opens with The Scenic Route, where Felicity Pax chases her missing mother across the Rockies while a private investigator, Bennett Green, dogs her every step. Crossing Paths shifts to Norah Pax, the quieter sister, whose work behind the scenes no longer feels safe once local criminals decide she are vulnerable. Take a Hike follows Charlie Pax into Simpson, Colorado, where she sets a trap for her mother and ends up tangled with Kieran Byrne, a firefighter who needs help clearing his own name.

The big difference here is the feel of the setting. These books roam. You get road trips, odd little towns, wilderness hikes, campouts, militia compounds, and the sense that the landscape is always pushing back. The men in these stories tend to be mountain types, gruff, capable, a bit feral around the edges, and the heroines are more than ready to give as good as they get.

The mountains are gorgeous, but they are not tame.

Family remains the real center. The Pax sisters are still trying to hold onto their home, survive the fallout from their mother's choices, and keep each other upright while danger keeps changing shape. That gives the books a satisfying mix of romance and momentum. Even when a single love story is in focus, there is always the sense of a larger family battle moving in the background.

If you liked Rocky Mountain Bounty Hunters and wanted more of the sisters, this is the natural next stop. Expect strong women, scruffy men, fast banter, outdoor trouble, and a series that feels like it has both open sky and unfinished business hanging over it.
