THE TEXAN'S TRUTH
He's always been a loner, but coming home could change everything...
Returning to his hometown, Bridges Espinoza's surprised to find his cousin's widow, Lillianna -- the woman he once secretly loved -- there as well. But even more stunning is the child who shows up claiming to be his son. Certain he can't be a father, Bridges works with Lillianna to find the truth. But a shocking discovery about Cooper's parentage could tear their makeshift family apart.
A Cowboys of Diamondback Ranch story
My Review:
Wow, woowww, wwwwoooowwww!!! This is all that is good in a Love Inspired novel...ten-fold. Beautifully written with a whole lot of heart. It's heartwarming and funny and poignant and inspired.
Love the unrequited love angle. Poor Bridges, secretly harbouring feelings for Lillianna since their childhood only his cousin made his move first. Now Bridges is on the sidelines, feeling guilty that his long suppressed emotions are surfacing again even though Lillianna is a widow now. That's all kinds of complicated for a romance but then an orphaned boy shows up claiming to be Bridges' son. Phew! Complicated becomes completely complex!
And Bridges' large, boisterous, in-your-face-with-an-opinion-on-everything family is sheer delight! The chaos! The laughter! The frustration! Bedlam in the nicest kind of way.
An engaging, heart-tugging romance with characters who come to life under Navarro's skilled storytelling!

DeleteWOW! When LIS book gets a 10 times good review, it deserves to go to the top of the TBR list. Sounds amazing and I can't wait for the opportunity to read it. Love the cover! I want to just stroll down that old dirt road and enjoy seeing the sights and critters - well as long as I had me a trusty pouch to keep away the snakes. :)
