Protect Forever

I received a copy of this book to review via Netgalley. Thank you for the opportunity.
This book is a sweet, easy to read romance. It is well written with good character development. I liked the family aspect of the book and I suspect the author will be building on those relationships in further books in the series. The characters are cute and quirky like Burns and Miss Janet giving an extra depth to the romance story.
There are a few typos in the book that make it slightly confusing e.g. Cloth for clothes but it is not major. In addition, it was a bit tropey and repetitive at times such as the repeated use of the word beautiful and the main character having blond hair showing there was little representation.
On the whole, a good book.

Really liked this one!! It was a little short but still really good!! It had intrigue and suspense, some mild drama some heartache and heartbreak! It's definitely worth reading! Don't miss out on this book it's well worth the read! Thank you NetGalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!

Clint meets Dawn when she starts working behind the bar in Benny's he's struck by her beautiful eyes but sees the fear behind them.

This is my first book by this author and I really enjoyed it.
The characters were very likeable and I'm looking forward to reading more in the series

This is my first book by this author and has I can find no others by her I am assuming that it is a debut novel and if it is then this is an author that is going to be worth watching. Her story draws you in and the secondary characters are the making of the story line

Dawn is on the run trying to escape her past and she gets a job working at Benny's a bar in Peak Valley Kansas That is where Clint sees her for the first time He is instantly attracted by her eyes but he can also see the fear in them Clint is a bit of a loner a town recluse something that he encourages but in Dawn he sees he could have a future Can he give her a chance to feel safe and will he be the one for her You will have to read to see

Protect Forever is a suspenseful, romantic filled ride.

From the prologue, I was hooked. The story begins with our heroine, Dawn being introduced with a dramatic and action filled bang and we are given no rhyme or reason behind the events that results in her hiding out in Peak Valley.

Our hero, Clint is instantly ensnared by Dawn from the moment he locks eyes on her. Built like an ox with icy blue eyes and ruggedly handsome, sign me up. Despite his upbringing and disarming appearance, that causes anyone that come in contact with him to run scared, he is a decent and sweet man.

The author wrote the characters in such a way, that I felt the weight of Dawn’s anxiety and fear pressing against my chest and Clint’s despair at people’s outright fear of his presence. The story is enriched with the secondary characters that provide humor and layers to the story. The small town feel and theme of family in this story is felt in the interactions of the characters. Mr. Burns is officially my favorite character.

Clint’s protectiveness of Dawn is heartwarming. He immediately understands her and never forces a relationship, even though his attraction and needs to be with her is overwhelming. He is patient and considerate, where she is isolating herself due to her fear of being hurt and abandoned again. He helps her cultivate a life for herself. Even when her instincts told her to run, she put her trust and faith in Clint and those around her.

I found the underlying drama and suspense believable and realistic.
