About the book
Sometimes it takes a stranger to see you as you really are.
Under Texas Stars, Book 2
Born and raised on sprawling Texas land, Margaret O'Brien prides herself on her competence as a rancher. But her father believes she's made for more than just dawn-to-dusk work. He wants her to have the love of a good man, to raise children, to build a life. But Margaret gave up such dreams years ago. She's convinced no man would have her, that the ranch is her life now.
Born and raised on sprawling Texas land, Margaret O'Brien prides herself on her competence as a rancher. But her father believes she's made for more than just dawn-to-dusk work. He wants her to have the love of a good man, to raise children, to build a life. But Margaret gave up such dreams years ago. She's convinced no man would have her, that the ranch is her life now.
So
when Margaret's father hires Daniel Cutler as a new foreman, she's
frustrated and suspicious. Then an overheard conversation links him with
a gang of bank robbers, and she's downright worried. Daniel swears he's
not involved, but Margaret's not convinced. She knows the man still has
secrets. But would a criminal be so kind and talk so convincingly of
his faith? As a series of tragic "accidents" threatens all she holds
dear, Margaret must decide what to trust: her own ears, her best
judgment . . . or what her heart keeps telling her.
My thoughts
Safe in His Arms has a bit of everything to please a wide range of readers. The main character is a strong, female. There is romance, faith, growth, along with a tornado, an illegitimate child, murder, assault, bank robberies, and kidnappings. I found myself unable to put the book down, either because I was on edge to see how the mystery would play out or how the romance was going to grow. There are some parts that I was able to predict, but I was not certain of my predictions until they were revealed by the author. I recommend this book to any one who enjoys a good romance, or books with a strong female as a main character, or a good mystery.
