A McKade Law novel

Fleeing from her dangerous ex-boyfriend, on-the-run single mother Nicole Dyer takes refuge in a cabin—and is discovered by the ranch owner, Deputy Matt McKade.

When everything Nicole loves comes under direct fire, can Matt keep her—and her heart—safe?

Ratings and reviews

Once again, this talented author, gives us a Christian suspenseful romance filled with twists and turns that have you trying to figure the “whodunit”. As good as the suspense was, the relationship between single mom, Nicole Dyer, and Deputy Matt McKade was the real star of the story, as well as the faith in God. At times we forget that in order to feel an inner peace and find the right answers to our concerns and problems, all we have to do is do our best and leave the rest to God. This is a story about hope, love , faith , family and the miracle of Christmas. If you have read the previous stories about the McKade clan, you will enjoy catching up with them. If you haven’t , I highly recommend that you take the time and “meet” the family. Another engaging story with complex characters. I can’t wait to see what the author has in store for Kendall, Matt’s sister. I was entrusted a copy of this book. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

This is book three in the McKade Law series. It is a stand alone book, however I fell in love with the McKade family in book one and love the entire series. You do miss some history on the family if you jump into this novel but nothing that keeps you from understanding what is going on in this novel. I love the writing style of Sleeman, her books are always full of mystery, Suspense, romance and more. This book will focus on the handsome deputy Matt McKade. He has his life all mapped out and that does not involve a wife and child yet. But when Nicole Dyer and her beautiful, spunky daughter enter his life everything gets turned upside down. There are many twist, turns and suspense in this novel. I look forward to hearting more from the McKade family.

I love this McKade family! They are tough law enforcement people but better yet, they are a tight-knit family that not only help each other, but anyone else that needs their help! I really enjoyed this story about one of the sons, Matt. He has a lot on his plate as he has a goal of running of sheriff to take his dad's place soon. He's just out checking the family's cabins on their dude ranch one night and runs across a woman (Nicole) and her daughter in one - what??? He's naturally suspicious, being a law man - so when he hears her story that she's running away from a stalker ex-boyfriend, he's a little leery of her. But, her darling young daughter gets to him and he's not going to let them stay in the cabin during the winter so he bring them into his family home. Of course his loving family just embraces them and surround them with all their "law enforcement" connections! Nicole doesn't know what to think! Is this family for real? They practically adopt her daughter and her! I absolutely fell in love with Nicole's daughter! What a cutie! The stalker ex-boyfriend is a cop so that is extra hard to deal with! You definitely need to pick up this book and read it! It has a lot of twists and turns but I guarantee it'll keep you reading until the last page!
