Shielded by the Cowboy (Thunder Ridge Justice, #1) by Connie Queen

Shielded by the Cowboy (Thunder Ridge Justice)
ABOUT THE BOOK

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.



MY THOUGHTS.....

This book was a great way to end my 2025 reading year! Author Connie Queen's thrilling story begins with a double murder that quickly escalates into a cat-and-mouse game with the young woman who witnessed these murders. Will Holly escape the killers before they harm her and her unborn baby?

I loved the plot, the engaging characters, and the inspiring faith message. Shielded by the Cowboy had non-ending danger, intense emotions, and questions that kept me turning the pages. What secrets were hidden in this small community? Would Holly and Clive's dangerous predicament create a bond of friendship and trust that couldn't be severed?

Shielded by the Cowboy is the first book in the Thunder Ridge Justice series. I recommend it to all who enjoy romantic Christian suspense.

I received a copy of this book from the author. There was no obligation for a positive review.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
