Review – Tender Hope

August 31, 2019 By The Suspense Zone

From the back cover:

As far as Thea Michener is concerned, it’s time for a change. With her husband murdered and her much-anticipated baby stillborn, there is nothing left for her in Ladreville. Having accepted a position as Cimarron Creek’s midwife, she has no intention of remarrying and trying for another child. So when a handsome Texas Ranger appears on her doorstep with an abandoned baby, Thea isn’t sure her heart can take it.

Ranger Jackson Guthrie isn’t concerned only with the baby’s welfare. He’s been looking for Thea, convinced that her late husband was part of the gang that killed his brother. But it soon becomes clear that the situation is far more complicated than he anticipated–and he’ll need Thea’s help if he’s ever to find the justice he seeks.

Amanda Cabot invites readers back to Cimarron Creek for a tender story of loss, betrayal, and love in the majestic Texas Hill Country.

My take:

This is the third and final book in the Cimarron Creek Trilogy. Even though you will miss lots of history from the Cimarron Creek family, this is still a standalone book. If you jump right into this book you will not have a hard time figuring out what is going on. If you like a series then start with book one (A Stolen Heart) and enjoy the entire series.

There are many different characters and things going on in this book, however the main story line is about Thea Michener and Ranger Jackson Guthrie. Thea and Jackson will have to come to grips with truth and try and find the gang of four before they find Thea.

There is lots of suspense, romance, sparks, mystery, history and more all wrapped into a great story.
