The storyline was well written, the plot flowed smoothly from page to page and the characters were written with such great detail and depth that I couldn’t put this book down so I ended up reading it in one sitting!

the Texas Rangers are a special breed of law enforcement.
This series follows Rangers with a connection to a region where a few had grown up.
Back as part of their normal operations, first Grady and now Luke find their way back to a second chance with women they loved.
Megs is now a criminal defense attorney – she was still in law school when Luke passed on the info she gave to him about her brother to the Sheriff. With her brother in prison for a murder she does not think he committed, but one he confessed to, Megs broke off her engagement to Luke and has had little to no contact with him in the interim – until Luke calls to let her know he just saved her aunt from a mysterious and near lethal car accident. Somehow, neither is convinced that Aunt June, a former heavy duty mechanic, confused power steering fluid and break fluid.
Brother Wade is attacked in prison, Megs assaulted, and the house she grew up in with her brother and her aunt burnt down – with Megs inside.
Luke managed to save her from the fire. Is there evidence that her aunt thought might save her brother, and maybe the only things to keep all of them safe? Can Megs, Luke and the Rangers get to the evidence and the bottom of a mysterious connection to the local Sheriffs Department?
Faith, love and a good kevlar vest might come in very handy in this exciting adventure – available on KU.

Luke’s and Meg’s story was so well planned and executed. The mystery was well thought through and even the reason for the second chance romance was so believable.
Anyone who has lived in a place where drugs were king and those who were supposed to be upholding the law were suspect will enjoy Meg’s journey to find redemption for her brother!
I enjoy listening to this narrator! She does an excellent job of reading this genre, and I am sure that she would do well with other genres as well.
