About this listen

When Trace Riley finds the smoldering ruins of a small wagon train, he recognizes the hand behind the attack as the same group who left him as sole survivor years ago. Living off the wilderness since then, he'd finally carved out a home and started a herd - while serving as a self-appointed guardian of the trail, driving off dangerous men. He'd hoped those days were over, but the latest attack shows he was wrong.

Deborah Harkness saved her younger sister and two toddlers during the attack and now finds herself at the mercy of her rescuer. Trace offers the only shelter for miles around and agrees to take them in until she can safely continue. His simple bachelor existence never anticipated kids and women in the picture, and their arrival is unsettling - yet enticing. Working to survive the winter and finally bring justice to the trail, Trace and Deborah find themselves drawn together - yet every day approaches the moment she'll leave forever.

The Accidental Guardian

What a wonderful story. Ms. Connelly is a marvelous story teller. The story of two sisters who survive a wagon massacre with a baby and a three year old is very heart warming. Their rescuer Trace is a young man who had survived a similar massacre ten years earlier. Together they find the men responsible for the massacre and grow to live each other. A wonderful love story.

I loved this story!

Mary has written a great story! I loved her characters. They are so full and fun to learn about. She wrote a great story about the pros and cons of living at that time. Although my grandfather from the 1900’’s said that his cabins took awhile to build and were marked and taken down for a year so the logs would shrink and fit closely. But of course their cabins were great! And the height of the snow was so accurate. I loved this book!

Great story line

Loved the story line and characters. I appreciate the bond and trust the men had for each other and the respect and care they showed to the female characters. The woman were strong and understanding. I loved had the characters grew and changed in the story. The story had some good twist and kept my attention.
