Swept Away is the story of Luke Stone who returns to Texas to reclaim his family home and land that had been illegally taken by a Flint Greer, a madman who killed his father while he had been away.  On Luke's journey back to Texas to reclaim the land, he finds a young woman, Ruthy (Rosie) floating on a river due to a wagon accident.  Luke can not leave her behind, so he brings her with to Texas.  She fits in perfectly with Luke's friends who are teaming up to take back the family homestead.  This book is the best one I have read in a while, one you can't put down and one you can't wait to continue.  The book ends with a cliffhanger, making you anxious for the next edition.  I ran to Amazon to find that "Fired Up" is the next installment of "Trouble in Texas, but I have to wait until September 15 for it!

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Bethany House Publishers in return for my honest review of the book after I had read it.
I give this book 5 stars.
