** Book Review- Silver Creek Bodyguard (Book #4 of Silver Creek) by Lindsay McKenna

   

Romance

New York Times bestselling author Lindsay McKenna returns to Silver Creek, Wyoming, where a veteran SEAL who is now one of a security team’s finest, is assigned to guard a beautiful woman haunted by her family’s dangerous past…
 
With a fresh start in the heart of big sky country, Sara Romano is thrilled to bring her herbal remedies to the lovely people of Silver Creek, Wyoming. But when her dark past follows her, and Sara is nearly killed, she knows she is in imminent danger. Reluctantly accepting the bodyguard her mother hires, Sara opens her home to Wes Paxton. Trained to protect, the ruggedly handsome stranger soothes her fears, making Sara feel cared for in a way she has not felt in a long time.  If only she had the courage to tell him her family’s secrets…
 
A former orphan who found family in the military, Wes can’t ignore the feeling that Sara is holding back.  The more time he spends with her, the more he understands how afraid she is—which only sends his well-honed protective instincts into overdrive.  So when danger finally closes in, Wes is an army of one, ready to do anything to protect the woman he’s falling hard for…

4 STARS

 Both of the main characters were people that I really liked.  Wes drew me right in and how could he not?  The way that he was written made it so easy to have compassion for him .  And I loved the "star family" explanation by Wes.   Sara was such a talented woman who was also filled with compassion, healing skills and empathy.  Wes had no  natural family that he knew of.  Sara on the other hand had some good family that included her mother and grandmother.  But she also had two dangerous family members; her father and her half-brother Manny.  Manny has had murderous feelings against Sara since his youth.  

The story includes some Native American customs, herbal information and natural foods information too.  And then..the physical dangers exploded. 

At the end even Dan, the county sheriff said "Well that was a helluva twist".  And I totally agree.  I liked how it ended with everything wrapped up.  And even though there wasn't a part marked specifically as an Epilogue, it felt like that's exactly what we got when it came to Sara and Wes.

 " I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy of this book through Netgalley. And these are my honest opinions about it.”
