It's In His Arms (A Red River Valley Novel, #4)

by Shelly Alexander

Lorenda Lawson has built a safe, sheltered life for her two young sons since their father was KIA several years ago. She has a beautiful cottage and a support network of family and friends. No one in Red River suspects that her marriage to Cam was ever less than perfect. Nobody, that is, except the gorgeous ex-SEAL who’s shown up after a long absence: Cam’s notorious twin brother, Mitchell.

Mitchell Lawson was a teenage rebel who fled Red River after the local watering hole burned down, choosing the military over jail. Now he has a new mission: making amends with the town and his sheriff father for his hell-raising days, while resisting the woman he’s always wanted. Between Lorenda’s warmth and sensuality and her boys’ mischievous matchmaking ploys, it won’t be easy.

When a string of fires breaks out, suspicious eyes turn toward Mitchell. Lorenda risks her reputation for his sake—but she’ll need to risk her heart, too, to bring this onetime bad boy home for good.

[Jeff Sexton]

Much At Stake. In this book, we get our first entry in Red River where the female lead already has kids. And she, the male lead, and the entire town have some real stakes at play other than just the romance of the primary story. Alexander executes all of this very well, even though much of it is plainly obvious almost from the first time you encounter the characters in question. Still, a fun, fairly light beach read.

Unfortunately, this one is a DNF.

I didn't connect with the heroine or the people in Red River. I really liked the hero, though.

No rating as I didn't finish the story.
