After a party at the Pullman ranch, their oldest son King learned that he was to become a father. This changed his carefree lifestyle completely and he started working to provide for his son with the boy’s mother, Gayla Anderson. But Gayla seldom let King see Gary, and after years of providing for the child, questions about his paternity surfaced. While all this unfolded, Meagan was searching for her family’s heirlooms, which had been stolen during a break-in at her apartment. This led her to meet King, who owned a pawnshop in town.

The Cache: Secrets Revealed and Treasures Discovered by Lauren Anne Davis is a mystery novel that will make you laugh as you fall in love with the characters. Meagan was a young widow alone in the world. With everyone she loved gone from the world, all she had to remind her of them were the heirlooms they left behind. However, she lost everything in a burglary. When the police could not help her, she took matters into her own hands and tracked her family jewels to King’s pawn shop. Meagan did what any other person would: get a gun and try to get her heirlooms back that way. But King had a business to run and prove a point to the people trying to harm his family. Neither Meagan nor King realized they would become integral to each other’s lives and make it much more exciting for both.

Fast-paced and packed with plenty of action, the story opened with a bang and many emotions. Meagan's family heirlooms were her only connection to the people she loved and lost. She was terrified of letting go, while King, on the other hand, lived in the present. He had his battles to fight and demons to destroy, but he didn’t let that overtake his present. They contrasted each other perfectly and worked together very well. The narrative style of author Lauren Anne Davis was perfect. It hooked me, and I was intrigued to find out what would happen next. At the same time, I was looking forward to finding out if Meagan and King would find all the heirlooms.
