Texas Ranch Cold Case

Fasten you seatbelts!!

Fasten your seatbelts….this is going to be an intense ride! Ms. Vaughn knows action and mystery. From the opening scene to the very end, this story captures your attention with each page you turn. I couldn’t put it down! So many interesting twists and turns in the development and solving of this 20 year old cold case.

I really liked Tucker and Ally as the love interest/couple of this story. Both not looking for love and have had some traumatic backgrounds/upbringings that bring the two together and allows each other to better relate to one another. Although the romance is not very romantic, there were several sweet and tender moments between them as they got to know one another in solving her mother’s case. I admire the Harmon family - cousins and all - coming together to do what is right and solve the cold case.

A very well written story and characters. I enjoyed the faith elements woven throughout the story as well. It is not quite full on insta-love but it is a pretty quick relationship development over a short amount of time. This book really is more 4.5 stars ⭐️ and my only honest complaint is I felt there was no good wrap up in the epilogue on Tucker’s case that originally brought him back home. I would’ve liked to see a victory/win there.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and Harlequin - Romance Publishing for the advanced copy. All my thoughts and opinions are entirely my own.
