Review:
In this sequel to last year's Blue Moon Promise, Margaret O'Brien was born and raised on a ranch in Larson, Texas. She doesn't care for household chores as she would rather be out helping her father on the ranch. Her brother had died in the war and ever since she has taken over his role in running the ranch. She hopes to one day inherit the ranch, but her dreams change when her father announces that he is soon to retire and he is leaving the ranch to her cousin. He wants her to fall in love, get married and raise a family instead of working as a rancher.
Margaret had given up hope of finding a husband and having children. She had accepted that her life is on the ranch, but know matter how she explains it to her father, he won't listen to her.
Life brings her an unexpected surprise when her father hires a new foreman, Daniel Cutter. Margaret is instantly attracted to him and he feels the same about her, but he has a dangerous past that might damage their future together.
The first book in the Under Texas Stars was a delight to read and I was eagerly excited when I signed up to review the sequel, Safe in His Arms, in exchange for my honest review. Once again Colleen Coble has crafted together likeable characters with flaws, such as Margaret's insecurities and Daniel's past. The descriptions and dialogue are beautifully written. It was nice to see a few characters from the first novel return for this one. Overall, I enjoyed reading Safe in His Arms and I recommend it to others.

I loved this one as much as the first book in this series. There is much more to Safe in His Arms than meets the eye. I really enjoyed this book
