Donna Grant – Sons of Texas Series Reading Order + Five Fun Facts about the series!

By Leave a Comment

<— MILITARY HEROES SERIES CONCLUSION ALERT!!! The Guardian (Sons of Texas Book 5) IS LIVE and we’re celebrating with some fun facts about the series sent to us by the author herself, and Donna Grant is sponsoring today’s Friday Finds newsletter! Also… The Defender (the book right before this latest release) is on sale… until the 28th.

Five Fun Facts about the series:

  1. I wrote The Guardian when Covid first release, and as with any writer, real life found its way into the book.
  2. I’d been dying to write a romantic suspense for years, and The Hero was my first foray into that genre
  3. While I love all three Loughman brothers, Wyatt (The Legend) is my favorite.
  4. My favorite part of writing these books was all the amazing locations the characters took me to
  5. Out of the five heroes in the SOT series, Lev (The Defender) is who I fell for the hardest.

About The Guardian:

=&0=& =&1=&

As a double agent, Maks Petrov has been so many people, he doesn’t know who he is anymore. While he prefers to work alone, taking down an organization like the Saints requires some help—even if he loathes asking for it. Just one day in the company of a sexy, fearless, and brilliant information broker makes him realize what he’s been missing in life…and fantasizing about what he could have. read more

Reader Question… Solved! The book about her reclusive, alcoholic, angry neighbor and she’d check in on him…

Maarja needs our book help, and she made me giggle when she said she doesn’t even know if she liked it that much (she wasn’t finished reading it) but she’s obsessed about finding it now. LOL! Let’s help! 😀

In fact, I have 2 guesses, but the first one is the one I’m pretty sure she’s looking for. 😀

She asks:

Hi Maryse!

I’ve been a silent stalker of your blog for a while (it’s amazing!), but now I`d like to try my luck with finding a book I started a while ago and never finished. I’m not even sure whether I liked it that much, but now I’m just obsessed with finding this darn book! 😀

I believe the hero used to be a hotshot movie director/screewriter something like that, and then something happened to his wife (she died? was cheating on him? divorced him? Something along these lines) and he moved to a cabin in a small (mountain) town and basically became an alcholic and a recluse. read more

Reader Question… Solved! The book about the player hero that teaches tennis, and the mousy heroine…

Ashley needs our book help! I love this trope! Opposites attract of course, but even better when the hero falls for the girl that’s not normally his type. LOVE THAT! Although, Ashley doesn’t mention the “falling for” part, but I’m deducing it from my past “opposites” reads. 😉

She asks:

Hello Maryse,

I am looking for a specific book.

The hero moves to a new town, to be close to his father, who doesn’t know who he is. He starts working at a country club and teaches tennis lessons to the ladies, amongst other things. read more

Reader Question… Solved! The book about the mafia man that thought the girl was his paid escort…

Ann is looking for this one! Actually this one sounds a LOT like a recent reader question that we received not that long ago, so I wonder if this is the same book?

She asks:

I am trying to find a book I read a long time ago.

I just remember it was a mafia man who answered the door and thought the girl was his paid escort and she was not.

I love your blog.

Thanks

Anyone have a guess?

Maryse: I don’t have a guess but there is THIS question – Reader Question…Solved! The book about the woman who pretends to be the prostitute he’s waiting for… <— and maybe that’s the one Ann is looking for too? read more
