Texas Ranger Dad (Mule Hollow Matchmakers, Book 10) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Rose Vincent has led a hard life. She's been through it all--seeing a murder, witness protection, then getting stuck with a wife beater for a husband, living in shelters and moving she and her son all over the country just to stay hidden. Now her life is finally on track and an idea for a better life for she and her son. Just when everything is going well an old flame comes back into her life and she isn't exactly pleased to see him. Zane walked out on her without even saying goodbye 14 years ago, leaving her pregnant and on her own at a time when she was terrified.
Zane has finally realized he has to make up for his past mistakes where Rose is concerned. He tracks her down to a little town in Texas. Now all he has to do is convince her to forgive him and the two of them can go on and live happily ever after. He should have known it wouldn't be that easy. Then he gets the shock of his life. Not only is Rose much more stubborn then he remembered her to be, but he also has a son.
Debra writes a good storyline, but frankly this story has been done to death. The best thing she has going however is the secondary characters. This is a continuation of her Mule Hollow series and the supporting cast are all back with helpful advise. One of the things l liked best about this story is that even with the theme of the story being about matchmakers, the group of ladies that make up the matchmaking team decided that they shouldn't do anything because they were asked not to. Zane and Rose made a nice pair, as well, even though they had a lot issues between them to work out. I really like the author's writing style and the town setting and the added characters gives new life to a well used subject matter.

Everyone in Mule Hollow can see the resemblance between former Texas Ranger Zane Cantrell and Rose Vincent's son. The same goldflecked amber eyes. The same smile. Not that Zane is smiling. He's in shock! How could Rose have kept their child a secret from him? Rose reminds Zane that he's the one who walked away. He has to make her see he had no choice. But Rose is as prickly as the cactus jelly she makes. And that's where their hopeful son and the Mule Hollow matchmakers come marching in.--This text refers to the Kindle Edition edition.

Small-Town Moms: A Dry Creek Family\A Mother for Mule Hollow (Love Inspired) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Two novellas that are packed full of inspiration and romance. This book was a breath of fresh air. Three sisters were all given up to the foster care system when their parents were killed in a car accident and were split up and never saw each other again. One sister passed away but the other two finally get a chance to meet and that's when they find out their sister Dawn left behind a son and a daughter and they are both determined to meet their new found niece and nephew.
In A Dry Creek Family, Maegan goes in search of her niece Lilly to find out if she is being well cared for and she spends time getting to know her and the uncle that is taking care of her. Janet has a talent with the details, there were a lot of side conversations going on and she painted a vivid picture of the scenes. The characters were both haunted by their pasts and insecurities and I thoroughly enjoyed that there was no fighting within this book between the characters.
In A Mother for Mule Hollow, Maegan's sister Olivia finally gets invited to meet her nephew Wes so she packs up her daughter Trudy and heads out to meet Wes, his father Gabe and the grandmother Geogetta. Gabe is not pleased with meeting his ex-wife's sister but realizes he doesn't have much of choice in her getting to know his son Wes. I really enjoyed this story a lot! I felt Debra Clopton just had the reader jump right in to the story from page one. I knew within the first pages I was going to enjoy this novella. The characters were so realistic and well-rounded! I enjoyed the way Gabe was protecting his son and his heart! I enjoyed this story a bit more than the other one and I think it is because I like less details and more character interaction!
There are a lot of spiritual threads in this book, I felt there was more preaching going in A Dry Creek Family but it was still good. I truly believe God is in the restoration business and this is evident in this sweet story of restoring broken families and situations! Very inspirational read that I highly recommend.
I received a copy of this book to read and review from the author. My review is not biased by the fact that I was given this book. I HONESTLY read and review any book whether bought or given to me. If I did not like the book I would definitely not give a rave review or recommend it.
