“Deadly Christmas”by Dana Mentink

MY REVIEW:

“Deadly Christmas” is book 2 in the “Roughwater Ranch Cowboys” series but they can be read as stand alone novels. I liked this story much better than the first one. It wasn’t as “dark” even with the suspense and mystery. Book 1 characters are also mentioned in this book which was fun to see how relationships had progressed.

I liked the twins aspect of Maggie and Tammy and I liked their relationship as they work with Liam to protect themselves from the danger they got into while trying to do the right thing.

I have read several books by this author and I like her writing style and interesting plots and characters. Great steady story line, clean christian romance and suspense. I really enjoyed reading it.. and who doesn’t love a holiday story??!!

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

More from Dana

I just love Christmas, don’t you? In our area we have a lovely holiday train. It’s an old steam type train which is decked out in lights for festive holiday tours. I was so thrilled that this cover features just such a train. Of course, in the novel the train is the scene of hair raising danger! Maggie, our heroine in this novel, is a cook. She serves up some mouth watering dishes (when she’s not dodging a killer.) I thought perhaps you might enjoy a Mentink holiday family recipe! God bless you as we enter this holiday season!
