"Swept Away," by Mary Connealy

"Swept Away," by Mary Connealy

"When a cowboy focused on revenge encounters a woman determined to distract him, there's going to be trouble in Texas!

Swept away when her wagon train attempts a difficult river crossing, Ruthy MacNeil isn't terribly upset at being separated from the family who raised her. All they've ever done is work her to the bone. Alive but disoriented, she's rescued by Luke Stone...so unfortunately, there are more chances to die in her immediate future.

Luke is on a mission to reclaim the ranch stolen from his family. But the men currently on the property won't let it go without a fight. Luke plans to meet up with friends who will help him take back the land, and since he can't just leave Ruthy in the middle of nowhere, she’s going to have to go with him.
But the more time Luke spends around the hardworking young woman, the more he finds himself thinking of things besides revenge. Will Ruthy convince him to give up his destructive path and be swept away by love?"


I really enjoy the books Mary writes and this one is no exception.  You get hooked into the story right away.  Luke and Ruthy are made for one another and you want them both to succeed in their goals.  The other characters that are also introduced will make for a great series and her next book "Fired Up," which will be released in September of 2013 and which there is an excerpt in this book, makes you want to read what happens next.

Stars out of 5 : 5  I loved this book, the characters are all relate able.  It's an easy read and it leaves you wanting more.
