A Reckless Love (Daughtry House, #3) by Beth White






In the fine tradition established by her Southern grandmama, Aurora Daughtry has recently orchestrated the marriage of her eldest sister and facilitated her middle sister's engagement. She also rejoices in her part in transforming the family's dilapidated plantation manor into a luxurious and lucrative resort hotel. Just when it seems there is nothing left to absorb her considerable talent for managing people, in walks federal deputy marshal Zane Sager.

But Zane is not at Daughtry House for a vacation. He's tracking a killer and collecting two key witnesses to a federal judge's murder.

Aurora takes it upon herself to disabuse the cynical lawman of his conviction that the world--and God in particular--is out to get him. But just as she's on the verge of cracking Zane's defenses, the man he is after reminds him that no one he loves is safe. Ever.

Award-wining author Beth White closes out her Daughtry House series with this exciting and emotional tale of two strong-willed people who may have met their match.

My Review





We are back with the Daughtry sisters, and their struggles, and are reunited with those we have come to care about. Now, this is the third book in this series, and I have read the other two, just as great as this read, you will not be lost if you pick this one up first. Evil is still walking around this Mississippi area, still rebuilding after the Civil War, and some holding their personal hates, and greed.
This is the youngest daughter's story, Aurora, and meeting Federal Deputy Zane Sager, and his quest to bring justice. I loved how the facts unfold and surprise meetings in the past, along with other surprises.
Can you imagine these sweet southern women inheriting a saloon, yup, and watch [or read] what happens to the ladies who are still in the building!
There are a few scary times here, and you wonder if all will survive, and there is also the compassion these sisters show to their fellow man, and I loved being with them again.
I wish there were more sister's here for another book, and be sure to read the author's notes at the end, great insight!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Revell, and was not required to give a positive review.
