Ranger to the Rescue ~ Renee Brumbaugh Green


This is book 2 The Texas Ranger series.  It is another book about Amelia and Evan in the small Texas town.  Amelia is a reporter for the town newspaper and Evan is a private investigator.  In this book we learn more about their relationship and if they want to continue as a couple.  Amelia is ready to make a commitment, however when Evan is made a temporary Texas Ranger for the town, she is not ready for that.  When the bad guys come back into town and kidnap Amelia and Evan's sister, he is out to find them and come to their rescue. Will this be a chance for him to get Amelia back?  or will she take this another strike against them being a couple?


I would recommend this, however, you should read book 1 before.  Book 2 picks up from book 1 and gives more of a back ground to where the story is in this version.  You might be able to read as a stand alone, but I was glad I did read book 1 before, it gave me more of an understanding.   If you like an afternoon Hallmark movie type read, then this is the series for you.  I really like this series and can't wait for the next one.  The relationship of comedy, stubbornness and romance between Amelia and Evan keep the story line going.

Author: Renae Brumbaugh Green
Genre:  Christian Historical Romance
Release Date: April 14, 2020

Amelia Cooper has sworn off lawmen for good.

Now any man who wants to claim the hand of the intrepid reporter had better have a safe job. Like attorney Evan Covington. Amelia is thrilled when the handsome lawyer comes courting. But when the town enlists him as a Texas Ranger, Amelia isn’t sure she can handle losing another man to the perils of keeping the peace.

Evan never expected his temporary appointment to sink his relationship with Amelia. Or to instantly plunge them headlong into danger. But when Amelia and his sister are both kidnapped, the newly minted lawman must rescue them—if he’s to have any chance at love.

 More from Renae

Every once in a while, when writing a character, I become vaguely aware that in many respects, I am that character. In those moments, I also become aware that God is the author, and he’s teaching me something through this particular character’s journey. After all, it’s a lot easier to learn through someone else’s mistakes than to recognize our own mistakes – especially if that someone else is a fictional character.
Amelia’s journey is one of fear and anxiety, which is something I’ve dealt with a lot. Like Amelia, I appear composed and confident on the surface. Like Amelia, I’m often a mess on the inside, scared to death of what will come, scared to death of how it will all turn out.
While writing this story, while dealing with Amelia’s anxiety, I (all-knowing author that I am) wrote that fear is the opposite of hope. Fear is the belief that something bad will happen, while hope is the belief that something good will happen. The Bible tells us that ours is a God of hope (Romans 15:13). When we truly trust Him, we can let go of fear, knowing He has good things in store for us.
At one point in the book, Amelia has this revelation:
”And suddenly, it was as if a haze lifted and she saw herself clearly for the first time. She’d let herself be ruled by fear, and in so doing had confined herself and clipped her own wings.”
Those words, disguised on the page as Amelia’s thoughts, were actually my thoughts. I hope you enjoy Amelia’s journey. And as you read, I hope you’ll remember these words from Isaiah 41:10: ”So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
God bless, and happy reading!
