MAVERICK HEART by Loree Lough

This is book 2 in the Lone Star Legends series and I liked it just as much as the first book.  It brings together two people who desire love and acceptance and when they finally find it in someone they have a hard time accepting the plans God has for them.  It is a story that takes you through many challenges and hardships.  You will have a stagecoach robbery,  spend some time on a cattle drive, enjoy the good times and the bad times with people you will come to care about.  It truly is an adventure in the small community of Eagle Pass in 1888, where book one also took place.  This could easily be read as a stand alone, but it is such as enjoyable adventure, you will want to start at the beginning with book one, "Beautiful Bandit" and keep on reading till you finish the series.  I am on to book three now, "Unbridled Hope".

Excerpt taken from the back cover of this book: "Levee O'Reilly and her husband, Dr. Liam O'Reilly, are headed from Boston to Mexico to set up a medical clinic when their stagecoach is attacked by the infamous Frank Michaels, who kills Liam.  All alone now, Levee makes her way to Eagle Pass, Texas, where she turns to teaching for her livelihood.  Rancher Daniel Neville has battled doubts and distrust for most of his life.  . . . Dan dedicates himself to serving his family and working with horses on their ranch.  Marriage is far from the top of his to-do list.  Can these two mavericks accept the plans God has for their lives?"
