Book excerpt: Fans of Robyn Carr's Virgin River series will love this feel-good, small-town romance! Ashley Fisher’s job as a reporter at The Daily Times is a stepping-stone to greater things. When she uncovers a story that wraps one of America's richest families in a web of lies and deceit, she runs for her life. Someone wants to stop her from exposing the truth and they’ll use whatever force is necessary. Three years ago, Matthew Gray made a promise that’s about to turn his life upside down. When he’s sent a silver ring in the mail, he knows Ashley’s in trouble. Dropping everything, he travels halfway across the country to bring her back to Montana—and the one place she never wanted to call home. THE PROMISE is the fourth book in The Protectors Series and can easily be read as a standalone. Each of Leeanna's series are linked so that you can find out what happens to your favorite characters in different books. Happy reading! Praise for The Protectors Series: “I am addicted to Leeanna Morgan's books! The only problem with them is that I hate coming to the end of one, and can't wait for the next good read. I love how she weaves the characters together, and draws you right into their lives. If you haven't discovered her, please do give her books a try. You won't be disappointed, except for not having found her sooner!” “I thoroughly enjoyed this book! I couldn't put it down. I purchased it today and finished it just now.
