Protected by the Cowboy

A Contemporary Christian Romance (Blackwater Ranch, Book 4)

By: Mandi Blake

Narrated by: Lorana Hoopes

She’s running from trouble, and now he’s protecting more than just his ranch.

Laney Parker is in dire need of a fresh start. With broken bones and a broken heart, she shows up at Blackwater Ranch hoping to land the housekeeper position for the new bed and breakfast. When the caring family begins to ask questions, she struggles to trust them with her secret.

Micah Harding is the manager of Blackwater Ranch. His plate is full as it is, but he can’t turn his back on the secretive stranger. Laney may be leading trouble to their door, but he can’t help but think she’s worth the risk.

She’s beaten up and tight-lipped about where she came from. Slowly, Micah shows her that she can trust him with her heart. When Laney’s past catches up to her, Micah won’t stop until he brings her home.

Protected by the Cowboy is the fourth book in the Christian Blackwater Ranch series, but the books can be listened to in any order.

A great fight scene!

Like all of Mandi's books, this was a great story. The characters felt real and there were several laugh-out-loud moments. Great hero! This is my favorite book so far in this series!

She’s done it again!

Mandi Blake has done it again with this book! I’ve read this story before but I loved hearing it through the narrator! The storyline is fantastic. This is right along the lines of everything I like in a story and Mandi has a way of drawing you in. I liked that Lainey was smart enough to get away from her abusive ex, and that Micah is there to protect her! Sweet story, great characters!! Definitely recommend this and any book by Mandi Blake.

Good listen

This series is enjoyable and clean. I like the variety as well as the portrayal of family loyalty.
