The Trouble in Texas continues with the story of Dare Riker, who upon returning to Broken Wheel, TX after the Civil War, has by default become the town's doctor. He is seeing more patients since Glynna Greer has opened a diner. Glynna originally came to TX as a mail order bride, but her abusive husband was killed while trying to steal Luke's ranch. Now she must make a living for herself and her 2 children, even if cooking isn't one of her gifts. Dare learns that she makes a much better assistant to him, especially after his life becomes endangered. First there is a rock slide, then his house catches on fire. When aDare is injured with a knife from Glynna's kitchen, questions arise as to who would hold a grudge against him. Glynna has already had 2 bad marriages and she can't subject her children to another one, but Dare is convinced that neither Glynna nor her children have had the right man in their lives.
I read Book 1 and I liked how this book just picked up where the first one left off. There is just enough mystery/suspense thrown in. The men are godly characters that are trying to show Glynna's son what a real man of God should be like. The ladies are hard working ranch women, yet caring of each other. Definitely a story you don't want to miss! Thank-you Bethany House for providing a free copy for me to review!
