 In this Gold Country Cowboys novel, Jack Thorn gets a surprise call from the woman he married in secret years ago.

 My Review:

 This romantic suspense is action packed. The suspense centers around California biker gangs. The danger they create is portrayed well. Some of the characters are from previous novels in the series but this was my introduction to them. Mentink portrays them well. I admired Shannon and her drive to complete her medical training. But sometimes such drive becomes an obstacle to love. Her compassion for the infant and mother in need was wonderful. Jack and the entire Thorn family were so caring and protective, they are an inspiration.

I recommend this Christian romantic suspense to readers who enjoy lots of suspense experienced by characters that grow on you. There is a good Christian message included too.

My rating: 4/5 stars.

 Guest Post from Dana Mentink

 I’ve spent a bit of time in emergency rooms lately. Not to complain, mind you. The asthma related treatments worked like a charm and we were blessed by good care, so I am not grateful. There’s a bonus, too. The emergency room is a great place for people watching! Hour upon hour I spent surveying patients, relatives, nurses and doctors. I came away pondering what it must be like to work in the strange bustle that is an emergency room. That’s where character Shannon Livingston was born. The E.R doc and nurses must be brilliant problem solvers with nerves of steel because they never know what will roll through their doors. Since they are not responsible for follow up care, they have only a short term relationship with their patients. But what would happen, my fictional mind wanted to know, if one emergency room treatment ensnared Shannon in a “run for your life” scenario? And what if her incredible life saving skills weren’t nearly enough to save her own life, or the baby she’s suddenly become responsible for? Ah me! The perfect scenario for a suspense novel, no? I hope you enjoy Cowboy Bodyguard. I can promise it’s going to be a bumpy ride!
