This is the third book in this series and while this book can be read as a stand alone it really is best read as a series to understand the issues in the past to know what is happening in this book.Wren and Sky have come to live and work at Blue Spruce Lodge in order for Sky to get to know the father she had no idea was around. And in all fairness, he had no idea she was in this world either. Trigg was an Olympic snowboarder who had retired to run the lodge and now finds out that he has a 12 year old rather upset tween on his hands. Oh and the mother is dead and she has been left in the hands of her Aunt whom he is attracted too. This book for me was confusing in parts and slow but it was well worth reading past those times. Wren and Trigg have their chemistry and the Father Daughter push and pull between Sky and Trigg is good reading. Then we have the issues of the lodge itself. Author Dani Collins pens a really good book that is do recommend

Loved this story!! Wren has taken a job on at Blue Spruce Lodge, so her niece, Sky can get get to know her father, Trigg. Trigg has given up competition as a world reknown snowboarder to get to know his daughter and help rebuild the ski lodge. Loved these characters!! Wren has put her life on hold raising her niece after her sister dies and has no time for a personal relationship, until she meets Trigg. But of course she shouldn't have these feelings. Sky, is the typical sassy teenager. She is loved by both Wren and Trigg but she is having a hard time with all these changes. Then, Trigg just wants to do the right thing for his daughter. Added in the romance between Trigg and Wren makes for the perfect read.

5 star review of In Too Deep (Blue Spruce Lodge #3) by Dani Collins Dani Collins is a new author to me and I am not sure why that is. As soon as time permits I will be going back and getting the first two books in the series. This is Wren Snow and Trigg Johanssen’s story and what a tangled story it is.Wren has been left as guardian to her 12 year old niece Skylar, who is pushing the boundaries and driving her mad with her bad behaviour. She seeks out Trigg (who turns out to be Sky’s father) in the hopes that he can help. Wren is the new manager at Trigg’s Blue Spruce Lodge and although Trigg is finding it difficult being thrust into a fatherly role (he only just learned of Sky’s existence) he also has to face the fact that despite himself he is attracted to Wren. This book was told in 3 points of view which is a little unusual and took me a while to get my head around but once I did I was captivated and honestly I feel this was right for this story. I really liked Wren and felt the pain and suffering that she had been through. Trigg in the beginning was an arrogant jerk whom I wanted to smack across the head. Sky was your typical pre teen complete with attitude and yet I really felt for the vulnerable young girl beneath the brash and often rude surface. This was an emotional read at times with all parties struggling to come to terms with their new realities. It’s hard to blend a family together and even harder when outside forces are trying to drive them apart. As the relationship between Trigg and Wren develops, will Sky put a damper on it before it can even grow?
