More from Renae
Lassoed by the Lawman is the third and final book in the Texas Rangers Series, and I honestly think it’s my favorite book of the series. The main characters, Juliana and Cody, are loosely based on me and my husband, Rick. We’re both creatives, we both love music, and we both try to balance our love for creativity with our need to actually make a living! Our shared love of music initially drew us to each other.
Like Cody, Rick is rugged and masculine, and he melted my heart the first time I heard him sing. As a matter of fact, during our courtship, we often wrote songs together. One of the songs Cody sings to Juliana in the book is actually a song Rick wrote for me. (Sigh.)
The attraction Cody and Juliana feel for each other is both white-hot and pure… the kind of passion God wants husbands and wives to experience. It’s the kind of passion Christ has for us, his bride. As I worked on these pages, I giggled at times, blushed at times, and grinned with mischief always.
Through hardship and heartache, Juliana and Cody find joy. And through hardship and heartache, God wants us to find joy, too…the joy of an abundant life in Christ. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I enjoyed writing it. As a bonus, here’s a link to a song Rick and I wrote and recorded for each other. It’s not the song from the book, but it’s pretty special to us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDjVxp2m5
God bless, and happy reading!

My Review
Lassoed by the Lawman is the third installment from Renae Brumbaugh Green’s series, The Texas Ranger. Even though it is part of a series, I believe it can be read as a stand alone. Like the previous two books, this one is a great read. It is probably my favorite of the three. I loved getting to know Juliana. I adored this character. It was wonderful watching her grow throughout the story. Especially when she meets Cody. I was entertained with those two from the start and had no problem reading their story in one sitting. I just had to know how it would all end.
Lassoed by the Lawman will be getting a well deserved five plus stars from me. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy reading clean historical romance.
I received a copy of Lassoed by the Lawman from the publisher. This review one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
