This book has been on my to read list for quite a while now and I have no idea why I waited so long! It has everything I want in a clean romance novel. Perfectly written characters, great plot, multiple point of views, and romantic suspense.

I love Knox and how much he fiercely protects and cares about those he loves. He is so easy to want to cheer for even in his grumpy moments and moments where he is trying to sort life out. He is someone you want in your family to take care of things and be your older big brother to rely on.

Kelsey is such a sweetheart and my heart ached with reading about her story and everything that happened to her and what she has to overcome. I love that she found her support from those friends around her that became like family to her. I love that she is able to be vulnerable and find comfort and safety with Knox.

I also love that this book is part of a series where even in book one I am already falling in love with the other members of the Marshal family and that their stories will come next. This is going to be one of those series where it is going to be hard to take a break and read other things too instead of just staying in this world and family forever.

If you are looking for a romantic suspense book with swoony kisses, danger, cowboys, and just a perfectly written book give this one a go!
