Customer Reviews

A wonderful rapid-fire suspenseful romance

Deanna Manetti is running for her life. When her escape is cut short by a wild stallion, she finds herself depending on a man named Shepherd Jones and the kindness of strangers. But who can she trust? "Along Came Jones" is an action-packed tale of suspense and second chances. Linda Windsor paints a colorful picture of a close-knit western community. Her writing style flows smoothly from action sequences to romance to intrigue to spirituality and back to action again. This is a wonderful novel - so engaging, I didn't want to put it down.

Along Came Jones

I have never written an online review before, but I just HAD to review this one. It's my first Linda Windsor, but it won't be my last. I loved this book! Romance, action, humor, lovable characters, a great plot, and cowboys...what's not to love? Deanna's journey back to God, and the trust she learns to rely on are common in every Christian's life at some point. A friend loaned it to me, and I went out and bought it. This book should be a movie. Read it!

Loved it!

What a refreshing book!!! I loved the characters along with the humor. Even though Deanna is in deep trouble, Linda Windsor does not dwell on that fact and keeps things "light". Instead, she works at developing the relationship between Deanna and Shep, while teaching good Christian principles. Shep is such a charming man. Are there any men out there like him? Don't miss this one!!

A Delightful Read!

I just finished this book. I read it in 2 days because it was soo good. Its about a city girl who is on the run. Her car gets run off the road by a cowboy's horse and while her car is being fixed she stay's at the cowboy- Shep's house. This book is cute, and comical but there were 2 things i didn't like. They fell in love and Shep asked her to marry him without even knowing each other that well, they had just met.The second thing was Shep didn't even wonder or ask if she was saved. If he really liked her that should have been the first thing on his mind. All in all this was a great book, especially if you would rather have a handsome cowboy rescue you then a knight in shining armor! lol
