Linda Conrad saved the best for last with IN SAFE HANDS. The entire series has kept me completely captivated and anxiously awaiting the next book to see what will happen to the three Ryan siblings. IN SAFE HANDS brings this series to a conclusion that left me feeling completely satisfied and a bit sad to see it end. Watching Colin struggle with his feeling for Maggie because of things he learned in his childhood yet wanting to believe that just maybe they could be different was heartbreaking and bittersweet. In all three stories Maggie is strong, loving and so full of life you can’t help but love her and all those characters shine through in her story making THE SAFE KEEPERS: IN SAFE HANDS one of the best stories I have read in a very long time.
