Summary:
Murder, mayhem, marriage, and a horse named Mutiny...
Minnie's impulsiveness has been getting her into trouble her whole life. She never expected it to land her on a suspect list for murder, though. With nothing left but a few trunks of possessions and her own defeat, Minnie leaves San Francisco behind and returns home. In an effort to protect her family and friends, she keeps them in the dark about the ongoing investigation and the possibility that danger may have followed her to Larkspur. When events force her to trust someone with her secrets, she turns to the sheriff and finds both a friend and an ally.
It may have been four years since he last saw Minnie, but how could he ever forget her? When Art finds her sneaking through a back alley in town, he knows somethings wrong. The once vivacious Minnie is a mere shadow of her former self, all sparkle gone from her eyes. Art knows that time spent with her will be dangerous to his heart, but he can't turn Minnie away. Even if it means protecting her from her own impetuous decisions, he vows to keep her safe.
In her attempt to take responsibility for her own choices, Minnie shut out her friends, family, and God. An unsolved murder isn't all that's chasing Minnie, though. Will she find her way back to the heart of her faith before it's too late?

My Review:
…..I received this book in exchange for an honest review…
Minnie doesn't have the greatest track record with good
decisions in her life. She has one lead
her to the next and then her life is upside down on a ship that seems to be
sinking. When she has to return to her
hometown she thinks that everyone will see through the lies and judge her as an
outcast. It is hard to be a completely unforgivable person. What Minnie doesn't realize is that in life, we are not alone.
We are surrounded by those who will willingly help us if we let them. This is a hard thing to do for her to do and
even more so for ourselves. It doesn't have to be this way. There is
forgiveness available for those who feel it is not available to them.
This was a delightful read for me. I even found myself talking about it to the
hubby. THAT shows that it was an
all-around good book. There was suspense
and love and family; very well rounded excitement. It covered many areas of interest in book
genres (not just romance).
My Rating: 4 stars
