About this ebook

 When widower Truett Mahan finds a trespasser hiding in one of his building renovation projects, he thinks he has a runaway teen on his hands.  He's right about the runaway, but Hope Larson is all woman, and in desperate need of help. True never turns away a person in trouble, but helping Hope wakes up feelings and dreams he thought buried with his wife years ago.

Hope was forced to run to protect the people she loves, paring her life down to what fits in her backpack. True tempts her to stop running and set down some roots in Whiskey River, a town she's come to love.

Can this strong, honorable man help her retake her life, or will the danger she'd left behind strike out at them both?

Ratings and reviews

An emotional story of two thoughtful individuals who, despite their initial reservations and painful experiences, grow to love one another in a small community and have the support of their people!

I LOVED this story. It's emotional, heartwarming, and hopeful. Tru and Hope are two characters that live up to their name. This is a wonderfully written story that you don't want to miss. Tru has loved and lost. Now he lives his life to help others trying to make up for not being able to help his wife. When he finds Hope injured and bloody he knows she has troubles and he can't help himself, he has to help her. Hope has witnessed something that changed her life. Now to protect those she loves she has to keep moving. Staying in Whiskey River isn't an option no matter how much she falls for the town and Tru. Can these two come together and find a way to heal each other? A recommended read!

Whiskey River Runaway is the second book in the Whiskey River series, but can be read as a standalone. It has a strong character development and it is easy to become connected with the characters and their world. Looking forward to more in this series.
