Cowboy Bodyguard

The newest Gold Country Cowboy series by Dana Mentink had my heart beating fast throughout the entire story! Between rival biker gangs and the potential threat of an all out turf war between them, it was constant knife edge tension. She seriously had me under my blankets, sucking my thumb & calling out for my mommy...lol! Wickedly scary stuff, but it's this kind of suspense that keeps me coming back for more. I've enjoyed each installment in this series and getting to know the Thorn family more. Evie Thorn especially, she'll engulf you in her love and feed you until you burst. It's her way of diffusing a tense situation and looking out for those she cares for...she's a mama bear you don't want to mess with! I had no idea how Jack, Shannon, and little Annabell were going to outrun Cruiser and his biker gang. It seems they were cut off at every corner and Shannon's life was threatened at every turn. There was no place to hide and I wondered who was the crooked crook who ratted on their whereabouts! And talking about hiding, what are they going to do about their marriage on paper only? I guess, you dear reader, will find out how all these things play out in the pages of this keep-you-up-all-night story! If you love suspense with a sprinkling of faith and a well deserved happily-ever-after, you'll be in for a treat with this one. Dana Mentink is a must-read author for me! I can't wait for younger brother Keegan's story next, he's been a bit of a mystery throughout the series.

Cowboy Bodyguard is the third book in the Gold Country Cowboys series. Shannon Livingston is serving her internship at Mercy Hospital in Los Angeles. She befriends a young mother, who is being threatened by a biker gang. But, to be able to protect them she’ll need help so she calls on the only man that she trusts. The man she married in secret seven years ago, Jack Thorn. Together they will protect the baby while the mom looks for her brother. Protecting the baby is one thing but will Jack be able to protect his heart from being broken all over again? The story has lots of action. But the best part was how Ms. Mentink wove the spiritual content into the story without being over bearing. It took awhile for Shannon to understand God’s love, but she eventually got there. I loved how the family all rallied around and was willing to do whatever they had to, to protect one of their own. Another great story from Dana Mentink. I received this book from the author in exchange for my honest review.
