ABOUT THE BOOK
Ethan doesn't expect Audra to affect him so profoundly, and when she begins to, he's terrified of the pain he's felt before when someone he loved was seriously injured on his watch. He's determined that his new wife will do as he says so he can keep her safe from the dangers that lurk on their ranch. Audra has been cared for all her life by one man or another--and they've done a poor job of it. Now she's planning to stand up for herself. And her new husband had better agree or get out of her way!
What will it take to transform two wayward hearts fearful of getting in too deep into two trusting hearts ready to risk falling deeply in love?

Christy here. One of my favorite authors is Mary Connealy. There's always a lot of laugh out loud moments with her down to earth cowboys and their gals. In Too Deep doesn't disappoint. In this story, we see strong heroines, strong heros who get tamed by their strong heroines, and a whole lotta bad guys. While Connealy keeps the story light, there is a deeper, heavier message the author addresses and I felt she did it quite well. She tackled issues of letting the past rule our present and future. How fear grips you and can hold you back from God's blessing.
I'm looking forward to Book 3 and hope it will be the romance of younger brother Seth, who's also known as "loco" throughout Book 2. He may have been "loco" but what happened was his character tugged at my heart strings even more than Hero Ethan. I don't know how that happened! I loved Ethan too and it's his journey in which is so profound into overcoming the past.
As noted, this is Book 2 in the Kincaid Brides series. I have not read Book 1. I recommend reading Book 1 first because the characters that are primary in Book 1 play a large part in Book 2. I felt I had missed a piece of the puzzle by not reading Book 1. Book 2 can stand alone, however, but if you are particular about feeling rooted in the characters, read Book 1 first. Just my opinion and advice here. I think Connealy did a good job of giving enough information about Book One's Hero and Heroine - Rafe and Julia - for us to move forward with the story, but since Julia and Audra had connections that stemmed from Book One, this is part of the reason I would recommend reading the first book first. (And maybe you do that anyway! Normally I do too!!)
I recommend this story and look forward to picking up Book One while I wait for Book Three!
