About the book:
Swept Away by Mary Connealy
Trouble in Texas: Book 1
Bethany House
Luke Stone is a cowboy on a mission and that mission
involves a Texas sized dose of revenge. The Civil War is over and Luke is on his way
back to Broken Wheel, Texas to reclaim his father’s ranch that was stolen by
the malicious Flint Greer. When Luke finds Ruthy unconscious in the river he
has no choice but to take her along for the ride.
Ruthy MacNeil is hard working and feisty. Orphaned at a
young age she was taken in by the Reinhardts, who had anything but Ruthy’s well-being
on their minds. She has spent the last few years of her life serving as the
Reinhardt’s personal slave and fighting off advances from Virgil Reinhardt.
Suffice it to say, she is just fine with being separated from her “family” in a
flash flood.
Swept Away was a
fast paced, enjoyable read that kept me turning pages till the last gun was holstered.
Mary Connealy certainly knows how to weave together action, humor and a few
handsome cowboys! A Wild West shoot out never hurts does it? The best part of
this book, however, had to be the strong band of supporting characters. I fell
in love instantly with sarcastic Dr. Dare Riker, Pastor Jonas Cahill, slick
lawyer Vince Yates and Texas Ranger Big John Conroy. I’m looking forward to the
rest of the series to hear more from these wonderful characters. I would
recommend Swept Away for anyone who
loves an exciting western read with plenty of action.
