Whirlwind Secrets por Debra Cowan

Rancher Russ Baldwin is co-owner of the soon to be opened Fontaine hotel in Whirlwind, Texas. His partner arrives in town (pretty Lydia Kent) from Mississippi. Lydia is planning to secretly use part of the hotel for abused women. (She is part of an underground network trying to save battered women who are escaping from abusive situations, to help them begin new lives.) She doesn’t want Russ to know about this (the women are put in a secret room) but he seems to be getting suspicious of her activities at night. As time goes by, they become attracted to each other. Should Lydia tell Russ about her secret?

I really enjoyed this book. Lydia was a good heroine. She was a kind, strong minded, and practical woman, and I liked how she was trying to help the battered women. (Especially since her sister died at the hands of her abusive husband.) I also liked the hero Russ. There was a sweet secondary romance between Lydia’s maid Naomi and the town blacksmith, Ef, which I enjoyed. Lydia and Russ made a good couple and I liked meeting the townspeople of Whirlwind. I also liked the western, hotel setting.

An entertaining historical romance by Debra Cowan.… (mais)

My rating is 4 out of 5 stars.

Her ex-boyfriend was convicted and sent to prison on charges of human trafficking and drug running based on her evidence. He vowed to get even, so she was left with no choice but to leave behind her family, job and friends to start over in a new city with a new name and new life. She has just learned that her father needs a bone marrow transplant or he will die. She is the only match for a donor, but can she get back home unnoticed? Her aunt’s security company sends a body guard for her. Soon after the attempts on her life begin. Her protector is Griffin Devaney a former Navy SEAL. He is carrying a load of guilt over his last mission as a SEAL that had devastating results. He has grown far from God, but once he meets Laura and sees her resilience and peace with God in her life, he begins to think more about God. Laura has only a week to proceed with her donation before she must return to Witness Protection, but she and Griffin are in several hair-raising attempts on their lives and fall for one another. However, to keep everyone safe from her ex-boyfriend’s attempts to kill her, Laura must return to Witness Protection only this time she will have to move again and start her life over with a new name again. All this is only possible if Griffin can keep her safe as time and again her life is in jeopardy.
These are my “go-to” books when I have a few free hours and I want a story that wraps up in that time frame. I like how these stories get readers involved from the first few pages with plenty of action, tension and excitement. There is always a faith them and a romance to add to the depth of the story and make it interesting for a varied audience. I thought the ending of this one was a bit predictable, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I got involved with the characters and was rooting for them to find a way to be together, but wasn’t sure if that was going to work out. I will be posting more Love Inspired Suspense reviews this month, so check out my blog for some exciting adventurous stories!… (mais)
