Clare Chandler divorced her husband Ramzi and fled his home country of Abu Fujarah after learning about his other wives. The trouble is she took their two year old son Jimmy, who is the sole male heir of Ramzi, and he will do anything to get his son back. Being on the run with a two year old is not easy and Clare is running out of places to hide and people to trust. Then out of nowhere came her knight and shinning armor in an old Ford pick-up truck.
After hearing Clare’s story Josh knew the safest place for her and Jimmy is with him in Zavala Springs, where he is heading home to his grandfather’s funeral. Once there Josh recruits his sister Maggie and his brother Ethan to help come up with a plan to keep Clare and Jimmy safe from Ramzi, but Josh is losing his heart in the process. As much as Clare cares for Josh she refuses to let him go to the extreme measures that she must in order to keep Jimmy. But Josh has one last option to explore, but it will require him to face a past that he has spent his entire life running from.
SAFE WITH A STRANGER is the first book in a brand new series by author Linda Conrad called the Safekeepers. Linda says this series focus’s on the strength’s of a woman and this story does that in abundance, but don’t sell the men in this series short. Josh is fighting some demons of his own in this story but it is his love for Clare that gives him the strength to face them. SAFE WITH A STRANGER is a fast paced, heart stopping, emotional romance that kept me turning page after page until before I knew it I had read the entire book. Once again Linda Conrad’s true talent shines through and I will be anxiously awaiting the next installment in this suspenseful new series.
