Shielded by the Cowboy by Connie Queen

 


Kroosreadsandreviews:

Gosh, these books capture me from the beginning and then the author adds a pregnant victim?!?   This was next level and I worried throughout the book for Holly and her baby.  It's such a good thing that she came in contact with Clive and his family.  

I was left guessing throughout the book who was behind all of the criminal activity.  

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.

Synopsis:

A witness in danger…
and a protector standing guard.

Pregnant widow Holly Myers just wants a fresh start for her and her unborn child, but when she witnesses a double murder, her quiet life is shattered. On the run, she finds refuge with former Deputy Sheriff Clive Cantrell, who is determined to keep her safe. But with killers on their trail who’ll stop at nothing to silence Holly, staying alive might just be impossible. Especially when clues link the murders to a drug trafficking operation hidden on Clive’s family’s ranch. And stopping the criminals could prove lethal for them both.

The two are a formidable pair who are working hard to prove their homesteading claim and build a family. But as Mary faces struggles of young motherhood and questions about her family of origin, she realizes...

Reverie by Drew Taylor

 I've never read a story like this before.  It was written as a story within a story.  This at times was a little confusing for me. I really enjoyed the main characters Esme and Noah.   Noah is super flirty and romantic!  Esme has been through the ringer of life but is going forward with such strength.   There were some loose ends that should be remedied in later series.   Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.

  The mystery of who is after Pilar captivates the reader.  Thankfully she has Chase and his family to support her throughout the challenges.   I listened to this as an audiobook and I wanted to speak to this as well. She did a great job being clear and articulate.   Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.
