An Unexpected Texas Reunion (Triple C Ranch, #4; K-9 Companions, #40) by Heidi Main

An Unexpected Texas Reunion: An Uplifting Inspirational Romance (K-9 Companions, 40)
ABOUT THE BOOK

Rebuilding a life
one paw print at a time.


After a traumatic experience, Brenna Park hopes that leading a youth summer camp with her emotional support dog, Lulu, will help ease her back into her life. Only, she didn’t expect to be sharing the responsibility with the man she left behind a decade ago. Recently widowed, Owen McCaw returns to his family’s ranch with his infant daughter to mend his estranged relationship with his parents and agrees to help out at his mother’s camp. As Brenna and Owen clash over every decision, they can’t ignore their growing connection either. When camp comes to an end, the two must decide if risking their hearts is worth a second chance at love…

MY THOUGHTS.....

This author is incapable of writing a bad book! Heidi Main consistently shares stories laced with sweet romance, realistic situations, and inspiration. She makes me want to befriend her characters, help them overcome their problems, and rejoice with their success. With this book, she's done it again!

I loved another visit with the McCaw family at the Triple C Ranch in Serenity, Texas. Owen McCaw struggles with immense guilt that has altered faith. Why had he worked late the night his wife was killed in an accident? Watching him in his troubled faith walk reminded me that it's all too easy for life circumstances to steal our total trust in God. And then there's Owen's surprising reunion with Brenna, a young woman who was also dealing with faith issues. Could these two hurting souls help each other draw closer to God?

If you enjoy second-chance romances, strong family connections, and heartwarming faith, grab a copy of An Unexpected Texas Reunion.

I received a copy from the author and publisher. There was no obligation for a positive review.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars 


ABOUT THE AUTHOR


Heidi Main writes sweet inspirational romance novels set in small towns. She lives in the central North Carolina’s suburbs, but dreams of acreage and horseback riding, which is probably why her novels include wide-open ranches and horses.

She loves to take walks, garden, play board games, curl up with a good book, and watch HGTV. A perfect Saturday is lounging on the deck with her husband and watching the many birds in their backyard.

Detecting Deadly Threats (K-9 Search and Rescue, 16) by Carol J. Post

Detecting Deadly Threats (K-9 Search and Rescue, 16)
ABOUT THE BOOK

With ruthless criminals closing in,
this K-9 is on a mission to defend.

Amateur photographer Lauren Hollander narrowly escapes a kidnapping attempt—moments before a disastrous earthquake rocks her small town, destroying her store. She’s saved from the rubble by Zachery Kimball and his search and rescue K-9, Ranger. Someone is determined to get to Lauren—but who, and why? Is it tied to her brother’s criminal past? Or are the culprits after the pictures on her camera? Under Zach and Ranger’s protection, Lauren races to discover the truth behind all the attacks. But as the danger escalates, can they survive long enough to untangle the mystery that’s putting their lives on the line?



MY THOUGHTS.....

"God, please help me look at Zack as nothing more than just a friend."

Is it any wonder that Lauren might have intense feelings for the person who saved her from being abducted by kidnappers and dug her out of the rubble of an earthquake? Wouldn't you be tempted to fall for someone like Zachery Kimball?

If you like stories with brave heroes, compassionate heroines, and a grieving child in need of a family, this book is for you! If you enjoy sweet romance and a whole lot of suspense, you will love Detecting Deadly Threats. Author Carol J. Post kept me fully engaged in a mystery that becomes even more intricate as the story progresses, and she made me yearn for a happy ending for Zach, Lauren, William, and Ranger, the best canine friend ever!

I recommend Detecting Deadly Threats to all who enjoy romantic suspense laced with inspiration and faith.

I received a complimentary copy from the author and publisher. There was no obligation for a positive review.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR


From medical secretary to court reporter to property manager to owner of a special events decorating company, my resume reads as if I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up. But one thing that has remained constant through the years is my love for writing. I currently pen fun and fast-paced inspirational romance and romantic suspense stories. My books have won several awards and been nominated for two RITA® awards and an RT Reviewers’ Choice Best Book Award.

After spending most of my life in Florida, a few years ago, I moved to the mountains of North Carolina, where I write my stories outside on the back deck in the summertime and inside in front of the fireplace in the wintertime. When I’m not writing or doing writerly things, I enjoy hiking, camping, kayaking—almost anything outdoors. My two grown daughters and grandkids live too far away for my liking, so I now pour all that nurturing into taking care of two sassy black cats.
