The Accidental Guardian (High Sierra Sweethearts Book #1)
The Accidental Guardian (High Sierra Sweethearts Book #1) | Mary Connealy
4 posts | 5 read | 1 to read
When Trace Riley finds the smoldering ruins of a small wagon train, he recognizes the hand behind the attack as the same group who left him as sole survivor years ago. Living off the wilderness since then, he'd finally carved out a home and started a herd--while serving as a self-appointed guardian of the trail, driving off dangerous men. He'd hoped those days were over, but the latest attack shows he was wrong. Deborah Harkness saved her younger sister and two toddlers during the attack, and now finds herself at the mercy of her rescuer. Trace offers the only shelter for miles around, and agrees to take them in until she can safely continue. His simple bachelor existence never anticipated kids and women in the picture and their arrival is unsettling--yet enticing. Working to survive the winter and finally bring justice to the trail, Trace and Deborah find themselves drawn together--yet every day approaches the moment she'll leave forever.

Mehso-so

Deb and her sister Gwen find themselves stranded in the mountains alone with two young children when their wagon train is attacked. They are rescued by rancher, Trace who watches over the trails, running from his own dark past.
It‘s a sweet romance toeing the line of being Christian romance, neither of which are my thing.
There was a lot of unnecessary repetition and got a little trite in places but not bad overall.

Mrs. Connealy has created yet another keeper for my shelf! She has taken a story of intriguing suspense, wrapped it up with her trade mark swoon-worthy cowboys and sassy heroines, and dished her readers an unforgettable laugh out loud, love story. This book is perfect for that rainy day, or long drive for a summer trip. Don‘t wait to get this one. Go grab it up now! It‘s 5 star worthy and so much more! Well done, Mrs. Connealy! Well done!!!
