QUITE A TENDER LOVE STORY

Laura Ferguson had a rude awakening when she heard gun-shots while walking in some wooded area about a mile from her home. She was walking her German Shepard, Samson. She has moved her family to Reding to avoid the hazards of city living after her husband died.She is not thrilled when she finds out that her sons, Scott and Danny are introduced to Bryce McClain, a gunsmith. She has developed such a strong aversion to guns that she can't stand to even be around Bryce. Therein begins a very big problem.Scott has taken an immediate liking to Bryce and it isn't long before Danny reluctantly accepts his presence also. Between attraction and aversion, Laura finds it difficult to keep her emotions on an even keel.And then things begin to happen. A cop she knew from the city is found dead on a backpacking trail. When she goes to the city to sign papers on the sale of her home she learns that another fellow officer is shot in a robbery attempt. Then she has a roll-over accident.Did I say she was training obedience dogs and further, guard-dogs? What a shock when Sasha, her female German Shepard is shot and causes a traumatic reaction in her son Danny.Bryce decides that he needs to protect this family even though Danny will no longer talk to him and Laura periodically insults him. He can't believe that he is falling in love with this woman. Even when she invites him into her bed. [silly woman]She has the strange feeling of being watched but can't account for this feeling. Strange, the house was locked when she left, but now.......And Danny is wary, it seems that someone was watching him leave school.Samson and Bryce do come through in the end.Front cover kind of dumb but back cover is more in keeping.Thoroughly enjoyable story - excellent characters - neat little mystery - Definitely Recommended --M.
