Marine's Promise (Iron Horse Legacy Book 3)

Marine’s Promise: Iron Horse Legacy Book 3 is by Elle James. This is a novel of family and community solidarity as well as second chances.James and Hannah had been married over thirty years and had raised four sons and a daughter. He had made The Iron Horse Ranch into the wonderful place it was. They had raised four boys and a girl on the ranch and all four boys had entered one branch of the service and gave it their all. So far, none of them had married. Molly had stayed home to learn how to run the ranch, hoping to run it when their father retired.Because he knew the mountains so well, the sheriff asked him to join looking for an escaped convict. James got caught up in an avalanche and went missing. The four sons all came home to help look for their father.Colin hadn’t come home very often during college or while in the Marines. It wasn’t that he couldn’t or that he didn’t want to see his family; it was because he didn’t want to see his best friends, Alex and Emily. They had been the Three Musketeers for too long. Alex had won Emily’s hand in marriage and Coal wondered who won, Colin or Alex. However, he was home for his dad and even now was considering where to go next as he drank a beer at the tavern. Suddenly, someone ran into him. It was Emily and she was frightened. What was going on?

Yet another book written by Elle James for me to love. Colin, Emily & Alex were the Three Musketeers in high school. Then life happened. Now Alex is dead/murdered, Emily is a widow and lost her baby, and Colin is in town searching for his missing father. And that is just the beginning. Then it gets fast-paced and exciting. I highly recommend reading this book, then reading again to make sure you didn’t miss anything!!!

I have read a few Elle James books in the past, but in this whole series the Iron Horse Legacy is the best. She has really come into too form! I fell in love with Colin and Emily. They had such a long but turbulent romance, and so many scary problems before finally getting things together. After reading the first 3 books in this series in less than a week, I am anxiously awaiting for book 4 to come out! Probably what I call an "all-nighter! I'm a word, can't put it down!

The search for the McKinnon continues. US Marine Colin McKinnon is home to help in the search and encounters Emily who broke his heart years ago when he joined the Marines and she married his best friend......banks are blown up- organized crime threatening-arson attempt- another clue to finding the missing father.

Collin was searching for his dad and ran into his first love Emily. She is a recent widow and some one is trying to kill her. This is a very exciting story with love and intrigue thrown in for good measure. Anxiously awaiting the next book in this series.

Marine's Promise: Fantastic writing, story telling and love story! Loved the suspense and excitement! Characters are wonderful. I loved how Colin's attraction to Emily was still there even after 10 years of being away from her. Loved it!

Elle James has you sitting on the edge of your seat holding on tight with all the intrigue, romance and humour this series of books hold. Off to read the fourth one now. Happy reading!

Mystery,suspense,thrills,and a whole lot of action.Starts of fast and never slows down.Had me sitting on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next from the very beginning to the end.

Emily should have married Colin, but she let fear rule her future and chose the safe option - Ha! Fate has kicked her in the ass, her husband is dead, there is a price on her head and the only one who can keep her safe is Colin...but can they keep their hearts to themselves? The danger and intrigue is ramped up again not only for Emily, but for the McKinnon's too, especially when it appears the threat to Emily may be tied to their father's disappearance. Watching Emily and Colin fight their chemistry as they dig for the truth makes you hope with every page that they finally get their second chance at love.

Yet another awesome book, I love the Iron Horse Legacy Series. I love these brothers, & sister, and each book has been a wonderful experience to read. Cannot wait for Bastians story & hope that they finally find their Dad.

These books are an excellent read, cant wait to see if they find their dad.
