Texas Rangers are the pride of the Lone Star state as law officers not as sons-in-law. Few parents welcome a courting ranger, with his hard, dangerous life. Who would want his daughter involved with a lawman of the Old West, in a state full of characters willing to break the law in any possible way? But the attraction of the ranger is hard to resist, as Serena Talbot learns. Though her father is planted firmly in the path of her dreams, she knows she must follow her heart and trust God to provide Serena's Strength for the challenges awaiting a ranger's wife. Amelia Donovan discovers that love can strike unexpectedly when she ignores A Woman's Place and offers a ranger her opinions on snagging cattle thieves. What will he do about this headstrong woman? Wrongly accused of aiding a band of robbers, April Hansen is The Reluctant Fugitive in the custody of a Texas Ranger. How can she prove her innocence? Her love for a ranger tore Grace Delaney from her family years ago. Could another ranger end up Saving Grace from an even crueler family separation? Relive the Old West with the men who protected it and the courageous women who stood by them. With their lives ultimately in God's hands, these women will rise to the call of love.

Yellow Roses is an anthology of Christian romances set in 19th century Texas. Each novella is a stand-alone story of plucky heroines and Texas Ranger heroes. All four novellas are good, short reads, but two are outstanding: Serena's Strength and Saving Grace.DiAnn Mills skillfully weaves a tender romance between Serena Talbot and Chet Wilkinson while portraying their spiritual struggles in an unobtrusive, believable way in SERENA'S STRENGTH. Her historical and cultural accuracy blends an engaging story line and an authentic narrative of life as Texas Ranger in the developing Republic of Texas.Kathleen Y'Barbo narrates the story of a tenacious Texas Ranger widow, Grace Delaney who struggles to keep her home and family together and Jedadiah Harte, ex-Texas Ranger turned preacher in SAVING GRACE. Their spiritual journey with God and to each other is a well crafted, uplifting read.While all four are well-written and wholesome romantic stories, I'm sure you'll want to read other titles by both DiAnn Mills and Kathleen Y'Barbo.

All four stories were great. Each one different, characters seemed so real. I loved all four of them. From funny, to suspense, bit serious parts, heart warming... I loved the story where he thought she was a 12 year old. Stories were short, about a hundred pages long. Not one left you wondering what happened about any thing. They were full stories, and easy to read large print. A gal or a guy would enjoy them. A delightful afternoon read.

Courageous heroines and intriguing heroes populate the four stories comprising this anthology of Christian romance novellas. A standout is Serena Talbot in SERENA'S STRENGTH, by DiAnn Mills; a spunkier, more outspoken heroine would be hard to come by -- although Amelia Donovan in A WOMAN'S PLACE might give her a run for her money. Kathleen Y'Barbo's Grace Delaney in SAVING GRACE displays quiet determination as she comes to terms with widowhood and opens her heart to love again. All in all, a good read.

This book was great. Tho I wish Each story would have been longer. But I enjoyed them either way. The only one I didn't much care for was Saving Grace, I found places where it didn't seem to make much since, but at the same time it did. haha. Im not sure just a lil confusing, but otherwise it was a great read :)
