SOMEONE TO WATCH OVER ME by Jerrie Alexander is a short
story but
it comes with a huge plot. Stacey McKinney goes back home
to Texas,
hiding from a man who won't take no for an answer. He
stalks her,
confronts her, verbally abuses her, and she knows it is time
to disappear.
He knows nothing of where she grew up, so she figures she is
safe back
there. Not long after she is back, she runs into her old
high school love,
Cash Butler.
When they were seventeen, they were happy and in love.
Until one day,
Cash up and leaves. Stacey is crushed and vows to never
fall for Cash
again. Well, guess what happens when she sees him after all
these
years?? Yup!! When Cash left, he went into the Army and
became an Army
Ranger. He had done a lot of growing up and is no longer
the boy from the
wrong side of the tracks. Will he get the chance to prove
that to Stacey?
Will her father, who basically ran him out of town, ever see
that he is not
who he thought he was? Will he ever have another shot at
love with
Stacey?
When Stacey's past follows her home, Cash is very protective
of her and
insists on her staying at his home. It also just happens to
be the house
Stacey grew up in. At first, Stacey refuses his offer as
she is afraid she is
putting Cash in danger. The boy at the bar where she works,
and keeps
trying to date her, winds up dead, as does her landlady.
Stacey knows it is
because of her and doesn't want any harm to come to Cash or
his workers
at the ranch. Cash doesn't give up and finally she relents
and stays at his
ranch.
SOMEONE TO WATCH OVER ME is a quick read, but, it really
held my
interest. I found the story well written with just enough
romance and lots of
suspense. The romantic tension between Cash and Stacey is
perfect and
keeps you turning the pages. I was quickly caught up in
Stacey and Cash's
business and found myself cheering for Cash. I really wanted
him to win his
girl back! I can't wait to read more by Jerrie Alexander.
Stacey McKinney returned to her home town to escape a
stalker. When people around her turn up dead, she fears he's
found her. Is the maniac keeping his threat by killing off
anyone who gets close to her?
That isn't the only risk in town. The man who broke her
heart has also come home. Their attraction is stronger and
hotter than ever, but he walked away once. She doesn't trust
he won't do it again.
A bullet ended Cash Butler's career as an Army Ranger. His
life on his horse ranch is without complications until he
hears Stacey is in town. He was a kid when her dad used his
wealth and power to drive him away. He's not that kid any
longer.
When Stacey goes missing, a search proves her stalker
followed her to Oak Hill. But he's dead. Who killed him? And
who has Stacey?
