Swept Away

Trouble in Texas Book 1

Mary Connealy

Ruthy finds herself swept downstream after a fatal river crossing. She is thankful to be alive and equally thankful to be away from her adoptive family. This saves her the trouble of running away. The only problem will be the man who rescued her. When Luke begins his journey back to save his father's ranch, he never imagined that he'd have a wet, bedraggled woman along for the ride. But she's in the thick of it now, and there is nothing he can do about it.

I really had fun reading this story. It grabbed my attention from the very beginning. While it definitely had its moments of drama and suspense, it also had humorous and romantic parts. Christian elements were woven in quite nicely. One of my favorite parts was the elements of brotherhood that enabled Luke to reclaim his ranch. While tying up the current story the author also left parts open for the next book in the series. I'm now eagerly waiting for September so I can continue reading the story.

I received this book free of charge from Bethany House and Book Club Network in exchange for my honest review.
