Another great book by Mary Connealy!


I’m so excited that Mary Connealy has another new series in the works.  I just finished reading the first book in the series–Swept Away.  I couldn’t put it down!

Ruthy MacNeil is a hard-working orphan who gets Swept Away when her wagon train is overtaken by a flash flood.  When she was a little girl & her parents died, Ruthy had been “adopted” by neighbors who treated her as a servant and expected her to marry their creepy son.  Understandably, Ruthy isn’t too heart-broken to be rid of her adopted “family.”

Luke (remember Seth Kincaid?–this is Callie’s brother) is on a mission of his own–to reclaim the ranch that was stolen from his family by a ruthless outlaw.  When he stumbles upon a half-drowned Ruthy, he is honor bound to keep her safe, even though it means taking her along on his own mission.

Though neither Luke nor Ruthy is looking for romance, they find that they compliment each other.  I love that the characters in Connealy’s books connect to each other–though I was a bit disappointed that the Kincaid brothers didn’t show up in this novel to help out their brother-in-law!

Connealy’s books usually have a similar theme & even the same types of characters, but she manages to make each character unique and intriguing in his/her own way.  There’s action, romance, and an exploration of each character’s relationship with God.  I highly recommend this book, and I can’t wait to read the next one in this series (I’m already guessing about how the characters we’ve been introduced to in this book will find each other)!  🙂

*Disclaimer–I received a free copy of this book from Bethany House in exchange for my honest review.*
