Description

She doesn’t believe in happily-ever-afters…

Summoned to Angel Point for her sister's bridal shower, U.S. Marshal Dakota James's plan is to make sure her sister doesn't make the same mistake their parents did. But her quick in-and-out mission gets derailed when Taylor won't listen and instead tries to introduce Dakota to every member of the single male population in Angel Point. One former marine in particular sets off life-changing fireworks that tempt her to reconsider her single status.

He wants to be more than friends...

Beckett Leland came to Angel Point to check on his cousin's widow and young boys and found a quiet, out-of-the-way town where he and his retired military dog, Tucker, could peacefully make the transition to civilian life. What he doesn't count on is running into a fiery, passionate woman who doesn’t believe that love and happy endings are possible. But he wants more than friendship from the marshal who has taken his heart into custody. 

Can he convince her that true love is real and their happiness waits just around the corner?

    Susan Lute’s second book, Wanted by the Marsha,, in the Angel Point Romance series runs the gamut of feelings: anger, misgivings, elations, delight, and most of all love...in all it’s myriad of forms. With all the characters from the first book making a repeat appearance, Beckett and Dakota’s HEA story nearly turned the pages itself. Especially with the story centering around Veterans, human and animal like, the tone of the story was somber at times, but also buoyant in its view of recovery and the promise of a future of renewal. I’m looking forward to more stories set in Oregon’s small coastal town of Angel Point. This ARC book was complimentary, provided by the Publisher. I am voluntarily providing my honest review.

    Dakota James is a tough woman, a former marine and now a US Marshall. She’s created her tough exterior and built walls around her heart to overcome her childhood trauma and kind hearted former Marine Leland Beckett is just the person to break through those barriers. I really love the characters of Angel Point, the author has done a wonderful job creating relatable and lovable characters that have past wounds they find a way to push beyond. The author has also created the perfect small town on the Oregon Coast that readers would just love to be apart of. While the characters do of course fall in love it comes across authenticity, the characters get to know each other and have struggles along the way.

    This author is new to me and I am not disappointed at all. I love small town romances and this book was spot on. Yes the book was predictable, but hang in there it was totally worth it. I loved everything about this book. I loved how Dakota was strong, independent and stubborn, but she met her match with both Beckett and her sister Taylor. Taylor killed me I did not read her story but she's a pistol and has no problem telling people how its going to be. I really liked Claud and Betty oh my what a sweet couple. If you are looking a good clean read with a story that will get to your heart this is the story for you. I so enjoyed this fun read and can't wait for more from the town of Angel Point. I received an advance copy from the publisher. I was under no obligation to post a review and have given my honest opinion

    I loved book one in the series, and this one was just as good. That said, for those that have not read book 1 , rest assured that this is a stand alone. Our main characters are Marshal Dakota James and Beckett Leland. Beckett is a former Marine pilot who originally went to Angel Point to check up on his deceased cousin’s family, and became so enchanted by the town and it’s inhabitants, that he is now ready to settle down in town with his retired military dog and start a rescue center for retired military dogs. Dakota is a stubborn, fiesty woman whose childhood hurts has defined her as an adult, and whose life (professional and personal) is currently out of control. While she doesn’t believe in love, Beckett is not a one night stand guy, but rather one who believes in love , one that lasts forever. The story was engaging from the start with characters perfect in their imperfections. A story that reminds the reader that those experiences we have as a child, will deeply affect the individual as an adult. I can’t wait to see what else this author has for us in her next book. I was entrusted a copy of this book by Tule Publishing. The opinions expressed are solely my own.
