A cowboy veteran is determined to help a fallen solder’s struggling widow in this heartfelt romance of healing, faith, and family.

Three years ago, Daron McKay made a vow to his dying army buddy. Now he’s prepared to keep his promise by watch over the man’s wife and child. He just never imagined he’d fall in love with mom and baby.

As she struggles to hang on to her ranch, Emma Shaw’s daughter faces lifesaving surgery. But Emma doesn’t want a hero, especially one riddled with guilt. But Daron is ready to show the battle-scarred widow that letting go makes you stronger—and that loving is worth the risk . . .

    A really wonderful story of how a girl's faith in God's love and tender care can mend her broken heart and shattered self-confidence. He used a broken war veteran to show her that she is worthy of a man's respect, love and devotion. She was able to heal his wounds with God's great love.

    Great book. Daron made a promise to his dying Army buddy he would look after Emma and take care of her. Daron felt like he should do this since he's the one who asked his fellow soldier to go out with him on this last mission. Little by little Daron starts to see Emma in a new light. Emma who was burned by her ex is just trying to get by and raise her daughter. She also takes care of her grandfather. She is not looking for anyone either. These two are just right for each other it just takes them awhile to see that. It's great to see other friends from Martin's Crossing in this book also. 💜💜💜

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Read!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2017
    Daron and Boone work together as bodyguards, and Daron spends more time at Boone's ranch than his own, and he is still plagued by nightmares from his time in the military. One night he drives by Emma Shawl's place and notices something very wrong.

    When Emma's brother-in-law shows up looking for money to pay for his drug addiction, even though when her husband died everything went to his brother and not to her, but Pete thinks that she is holding out on him. Emma is determined to take care of her family on her own, without Daron's interference.

    Will Emma and Daron find that they are just what the other needs?

    I like Daron and how he wants to help Emma, and he admires Emma for her strength and determination to raise her daughter without being a burden to others. He loves Jamie, Emma's daughter and he wants to help as much as he can with her upcoming surgery.

    Emma is a hardworking mother, who also helps her granddad who is alot like her, in that he doesn't like depending on others and wants to do everything for himself. I admired her mettle, faith, and determination.

    Overall a great book with a lot going on, with great humor, Boone is especially apt at pushing Daron's buttons. It has great characters and dialog, and I liked how Daron's goals change over the course of the book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars NEVER CAN GET ENOUGH OF MS MINTION'S STORIES
    Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2017
    Too much time passes between new releases of BRENDA MINTON books. Each time I am aware of a new one coming out, I anxiously await its arrival. Needless to say, once it is out and in the stories I immediately purchase it. If I am currently reading a book, which is typically the case, I have a hard time not thinking about getting through my current read to begin MS MINTON’S book.

    Daron McKay made a vow to his dying army buddy that he would watch over his wife and child. It wasn’t a surprise that he’d keep his promise. What he hadn’t anticipated was falling in love with her.

    Emma Shaw is a struggling mother. Daron McKay came into her life due to a sense of duty, mixed with guilt. If only he could set aside both, perhaps she could allow her heart to love him.

    As is true to MS MINTON’S stories, HER GUARDIAN RANCHER is well written, with three dimensional characters that you will fall in love with. It is not uncommon for me to fall in love with the hero, but MS MINTON has a way of drawing you into the heroine’s character as well. Not only the main characters, but ALL the characters. The plot is wonderful, not lacking in anything. As typical of MS MINTON’S writing, HER GUARDIAN RANCHER is peppered with original humor and great one-liners.

    A quick and easy read. Can’t wait for the next. Would love to read Lucy’s story.
