When everyone is keeping secrets, it's impossible to know who to trust

To put her life back in perspective, Kara Galway has moved home to Texas after years in New England. The up-and-coming defense attorney intends to concentrate on her career and spend time with her Texas Ranger brother. But fate has something else in store.

While Kara is devastated to learn her former mentor, Connecticut governor Mike Parisi, has died suddenly, she's pleased for her best friend, Allyson Stockwell, the new governor. Then Allyson's children show up at Kara's Texas home. They are terrified--and hiding something. Afraid for themselves and their mother, they are certain the circumstances of Mike's death are suspicious.

Kara must return with the children to Allyson's home, Stonebrook Cottage, to unravel what exactly is going on. Are the children really in danger? What secret is Allyson hiding? And then there's Sam Temple, the Texas Ranger Kara has fallen head over heels in love with. Sam has followed her to Connecticut and has no intention of leaving without her. Kara must uncover the truth if she is going to protect the people she loves.

As mentioned in my review of “The Cabin,” it was particularly enjoyable for those that watched Walker, Texas Ranger (TV Series 1993–2001). In the novel the Texas Ranger cowboy hat is white rather than black and suits this reader's imagination just fine. I added a comment on 27-Sep-2019 after reading the news online: Jared Padalecki to Star in 'Walker, Texas Ranger' Reboot
Link: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/jared-padalecki-star-walker-texas-ra...

I was not familiar with the name Jared Padalecki before reading the Hollywood Reporter article and viewing his photograph. Without a doubt the photograph was easily absorbed as my image of Texas Ranger Sam Temple.

The interwoven twists and turns of suspense and romantic overlays that Carla Neggers brings to each of her novels are finely etched in this novel. This story also portrays the innocence as well as the fears of children as they respond to the crises that bring multiple changes to their family. ( )

I suppose my major reservation about STONEBROOK COTTAGE is that it's best read after the others in this New England-Texas series; it would stand as a good story on its own, but as usual there are all these characters hanging around from earlier books.
I enjoyed the characters - the children rang true, and it's always fun to 'catch up' on characters from earlier books. The secondary love story between the new governor and a local farmer has a nice, different twist. The hero was very much the alpha male of women's popular fiction intent on getting his own way, but since Neggers counters this with an equally strong heroine equally intent on getting her own way, it works.

It's light summer reading; not the best book I've read this summer, but far from the worst. I haven't yet decided if it will go into the keeper pile. ( )
