Cover Description:

If there’s one thing Gillian Hodge never wants to see again, it’s a man on a motorcycle. Her last encounter with one left her right hand crushed, ending her promising career as a concert pianist. But as she heads to Rainbow’s End Resort, a sudden thunderstorm causes a motorcycle to crash in front of her.

When TJ Benjamin’s wife died, he lost more than his best friend; he lost his faith. He’s spent the past year wandering the country on a motorcycle, trying not to think about his future. When he finds himself stranded with a busted bike and a reluctant rescuer, he has to wonder about God’s sense of humor.

Can this woman without a future and this man running from his past find romance in the present? Or are they too tied to the way life used to be?

Read on for my thoughts on On Lone Star Trail.  No true spoilers, promise.

While reading On Lone Star Trail I was often struck by the thought about that line… “When God closes a door, He opens a window somewhere else.”

Gillian and TJ were the perfect example of the truth, and possibilities, behind that line.  Each had suffered heart wrenching losses.  Each had to find, or try to find another path in life.  One chance meeting, with almost disastrous results, will open up some windows of possibilities for TJ, Gillian and Mike.  Question is will they step through those windows – and who will be at Gillian’s side when she makes that choice?

I enjoyed On Lone Star Trail.  It’s a very solid, second chance novel on many levels.  Although it is the third story in the Texas Crossroads series, you do not need to have read the previous stories to enjoy this one.  Some characters from the previous books make appearances, but they are easily introduced without a break in the current story.

If you enjoy Christian Romance, Women’s Fiction or even Contemporary Romance then you would enjoy On Lone Star Trail.

*I received an e-ARC of On Lone Star Trail from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.  That does not change what I think of this novel.*
