DANGEROUS HOMECOMING

Deputy Clay Starke has come home to Wrangler's Corner for one reason only: to solve his brother's murder.

But Sabrina's willingness to assist him soon draws her into the troubles of Clay's past. Now both Clay and Sabrina have targets on their backs, and Clay is at risk of losing not only his heart, but also his life. Will finding his brother's killer cost him the woman he has come to love?

Wrangler's Corner: Family comes first

My Review

I've always been impressed with this author's writing, and this Love Inspired Suspense was just the right level of thrill for me. Clay and Sabrina begin working together when the teen she is searching for leads her to evidence in the murder of Clay's brother who was Sabrina's good friend. Sabrina's focus on the children in her stewardship keeps her investigating even when her own life is in danger. There are plenty of hair-raising situations along with quieter moments where Clay and Sabrina grow closer as they develop trust and realize their growing attraction. I loved getting to know the family members of both as well as community members they interacted with. I was drawn right into the story and was kept riveted all the way through to the end.
