Tina Cahill has found her mission field in Broken Wheel, Texas, and is dedicated to picketing the saloon in hopes of shutting it down. She's willing to picket for other causes in her spare time, of course.Vince Yates isn't the only man fascinated by Tina's mission. Plenty of men — not Vince, of course — go to the saloon just so they can catch an eyeful of the fiery but beautiful woman. When Vince's dysfunctional family catches up with him in Broken Wheel, Tina finds a new cause… and Vince finds trouble stalking them all once again.This third and final (?) book in the Trouble in Texas series keeps the reader in touch with old friends from the previous stories. Connealy knows how to keep suspense high while offsetting tension through humor. Another great book.I received a copy of this book for my honest review. Just when Vince Yates thought that life had settled down in Broken Wheel and the red west Texas Palo Duro Canyon dust had cleared from previous adventures, feisty Tina Cahill shows up and decides to make the saloon of the town her mission from God. Then life really gets turned upside down when his tyrannical father shows up with his mother, who is showing signs of dementia, and a sister he didn't even know existed. Life starts to spiral out of control for Vince when his best friend and his sister start acting cozy and then Tina's picketing causes more problems that he could possibly imagine. Can he and his best friends, who have been together through numerous adventures since they were in Andersonville Prison during the Civil War, come to the rescue before anyone gets hurt? Can Vince get over his past so that he can move forward with his future, which hopefully involves the beautiful and strong willed Tina?I loved Connealy's book, Stuck Together. Her wit and humor had me laughing out loud, while the touching points in her story were deftly written with compassion and grace. I love how Connealy expertly mixes humor, adventure, suspense and romance all together in a historical western setting. I recommend this book to anyone who loves a well written novel with any and all of the a-fore mentioned themes. This is the third book in the Trouble in Texas series, but can easily stand alone by itself.Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the Bethany Publishing Company book review bloggers program.

What do You think about Stuck Together (2014)?
Just a sucker for a happy ending I suppose, but really like Connealy's writing style and characters.
