Texas Ranch Cold Case - (Cowboy Protectors) by Virginia Vaughan (Paperback)

Ally Fulton returns to Harmon Ranch determined to find out what happened to her mother over a decade ago. But as she finds out, trying to find out the truth can be deadly because someone wants the truth to stay hidden. When her mom disappeared, Ally was only a small child. Now, she is a teacher and an adult and wants answers. Unfortunately, from the minute she starts investigating her life is in danger. The good news is that Tucker Harmon has returned to the ranch about the same time and is right there when shots are fired at Ally and can help her in her dangerous dilemmas. Tucker and his cousins are inspired by Ally to seek the truth about her mom Tonya and to find out along the way what really happened to their grandfather Chet. The story is riveting, with crisp writing that weaves suspense with an underlying romance. The characters are believable and relatable and the action is non-stop all the way to the exciting conclusion.

This suspenseful, hard-to-put-down read concludes the wonderful Cowboy Protectors series. I love this series that follows the lives and loves of the Harmon cousins of Jessup, Texas. This is Tucker Harmon’s story. Danger abounds as Tucker and Ally seek to find the truth about the disappearance of Ally’s mother 20 years ago. Well placed plot twists and a couple of major shocking revelations heighten the suspense. Sweet romance takes a back seat to the action but adds interest. The characters are realistic and easy to connect with. It was great to reconnect with the other Harmon cousins and see how they all come together as a family to help Tucker and Ally. I appreciate the gentle faith thread with reminders about trusting God. I highly recommend this book and the series as must reads for Inspirational Romantic Suspense fans!
