A shocking murder.

A high-speed robbery.

Can ex-cowgirl Emily stand up to a criminal convoy?

Emily Bernal may have traded the fast-paced rodeo world for paralegal work, but the change hasn’t made her life any simpler. Between romancing her sexy attorney boss Jack and fighting for custody of her foster child, she wonders if riding a bucking bronco would be easier. But when two runaway teens beg for her help after witnessing a truck-stop murder, the former rodeo queen springs into action.

As she follows the clues along the Texas interstate, she can’t help but notice her boyfriend is hiding something from her. When the investigation turns deadly, Emily’s only chance to keep the runaways alive is to stand toe-to-toe with a criminal conspiracy that could make her the next victim?

Earth to Emily is the second stand-alone novel in the adrenaline-pumping Emily trilogy and book five in the What Doesn't Kill You romantic mystery series. If you like Sandra Brown or Janet Evanovich, you will love USA Today best-selling author Pamela Fagan Hutchins. A former attorney, Pamela splits time between Snowheresville, WY, and Lake Mooselookmeguntic, ME.

Wow! What a great story. I didn't know what to expect when I started this book. Too late I realized it is the 2nd of three so woo-hoo I have two more in this series. Emily, paralegal extraordinaire, doesn't just work in the office. Jack, her boss, described in such yummy detail, worries about her. The book is filled with zany characters, hair-raising danger, bad cops, good cops, devoted friends, mind enemies. As a continuation from book 1, continues Emily's hope to adopt Betsy and keeping everyone safe from the bad guys. Hutchens has a very well developed plot and characters. And the proof reading was excellent. Definitely a can't-stop-reading-until-I'm-finished book.

The title makes sense by the conclusion of the story. Characters are interesting and colorful. The plot was twisted with each item revealed. Overall well done.

Earth to Emily is book 6 in What Doesn’t Kill You Romantic mystery series by Pamela Fagan Hutchins.
Emily Bernal has fallen in love with a little girl in the Child Protective Services and has decided to try to adopt her. The first step is to get accepted as a foster parent. Child Protective Services Investigator Wallace Gray is doing all he can to help her. However, he also needs her help in finding two teen runaways- Greg and Farrah. Emily had also had a chance to meet these two teens before. She had made a connection with them so Wallace asked her to go to the Love’s outside Amarillo and try to find them and bring them in. She goes to meet them with her boss, and hopefully boyfriend, Jack Holden. She discovers Greg is helping Farrah get away from an abusive situation and they do not want her help now. She gives them her card to call her if they change their minds. They have also seen something at the Love’s that they shouldn’t have seen and are running from someone; but they won’t tell her who or why. Emily and Jack get pulled into a murder investigation by their presence at the Love’s station.
Emily has good intentions but somehow manages to get herself into impossible situations without trying. Jack seems to be there to help her get out of trouble. Can he help her now with Greg and Farrah and with adopting the little girl? Can he do it without getting crosswise with the law, after all, he is a lawyer.
It is a fun book and series to read.

What an enjoyable read, you won't want to put down the book. Have to know what is going to happen next. Love Emily. Her and Jack make quite the pair. The book contains suspense, twists, murder, humor and romance. Enjoyable cast of characters, who you get to know what quite well and will love them all, well most of them except the bad guys. Good storyline. Suggest you read Heaven to Betsy first, then you will appreciate this book even more. Emily has a way of getting herself in sticky situations but some how always comes out on top. Who are the good cops and who are the bad ones? What will Emily finally find out about what happened with her father? Can she protect the fosters kids? What is happening with Betsy? Will she be deported? Quite a few twists at the end. Can't wait to read the final book in the Emily series to see how everything ends. Have enjoyed all the series within this series that I have read so far. Recommend. Worth the money to buy. If you like romantic suspense, and have never read a book by Pamela give her a try. You won't be disappointed.

I have read and enjoyed the Patrick Flint series. The book was available and I got it and read it in one day. I currently live in Amarillo, TX and was born and lived in New Mexico. So this series intrigued me. I was not disappointed! The twists and turns were great. I was blown away by who were the bad guys and who was the undercover.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice story.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 15, 2024
I got this book free on Bookbub and I notice that all the other reviews are by women but I won't let that put me off. I quite liked the story and the characters although I can't see why Emily is chasing her boss as she should be off men for life after her dad and her husband even though the dad thing is sorted out later. She is dying to adopt little Betsy after her own problems and Jack is behind her in this and as the story progresses she solves a few crimes and a few peoples' problems quite effectively earning herself a hospital ward named after her, albeit indirectly and only by the police.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 21, 2019
Although the second book about Emily, this is a stand-alone read. To the extent that it frustrated me a little because I wanted some little kick backs and references to the first book so that I could smile along again! I do recommend you read Heaven to Betsy if you haven’t ....
Apart from that selfish moan, this is a great romantic mystery and Emily’s big heart and mad moments will keep you enthralled .
Some great dialogue and believable drama- with an ‘on topic ‘ social subject - I loved this romance/ drama.
