Shelter Mountian - Robyn Carr

Shelter Mountain by Robyn Carr

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


John "Preacher" Middleton is about to close the bar when a young woman and her three-year-old son come in out of the wet October night. A marine who has seen his share of pain, Preacher knows a crisis when he sees one—the woman is covered in bruises. He wants to protect them, and he wants to punish whoever did this to her, but he knows immediately that this inclination to protect is something much more. Paige Lassiter has stirred up emotions in this gentle giant of a man—emotions that he has never allowed himself to feel.

But when Paige's ex-husband turns up in Virgin River, Preacher knows his own future hangs in the balance. And if there's one thing the marines' motto of Semper Fidelis—always faithful—has taught him, it's that some things are worth fighting for.

(Summary from Goodreads.com)

Boy, oh, boy, was this a good book! Carr took a tough guy ex-marine and exposed his heart of gold along with being gentle and caring. That made the hero, Preacher, all the more enticing and sexy to boot! He is one of my favorite characters in this series and Carr did an excellent job conveying the message that true love conquers even the worst of situations! This book is on my favorites list!
