MERCY'S
RESCUE
by
Debra Holt
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Fighting
for his life after an ambush, Sheriff Josh Wellman awakes to find
himself looking into the eyes of a real-life angel of mercy. Despite
his groggy condition, he knows his life has changed the instant their
hands touch.
Devastating
heartbreak has left Mercy Smith's faith in tatters, her heart guarded
against more loss. Her dedication to the air evac trauma team she
leads has insulated her from the realities of the earth below, so now
Josh faces the biggest challenge of his life.
Can
he find a way around the walls that fortify her heart and convince
this angel to stay on the ground with him? Can Mercy open herself to
life again and find a way to restore her faith in God ... as well as
love?

Excerpt;
“Three
minutes out. Descent begins in one.” The pilot’s voice crackled
through the headset as he tossed a look over his shoulder to Mercy,
strapped into the jump seat. She responded with a quick thumbs-up.
“The scene is secured,” he added. “We’re in and out fast.
There’s only one to transport.”
A dull,
leaden weight sank to the pit of her stomach. Mercy Smith knew his
words meant the other injured person had died before their arrival.
“We
can’t save them all, Mercy.” Paul Robards, the second medic
onboard who was seated across from her, responded to the shadowed
look that crossed her face. “Some things are out of our control.”
“That’s
true. I just wish we had the chance to try.” She’d served four
years in the trauma-one unit on the ground before accepting the
promotion to join the air evac as team leader, so she was a realist.
She knew they would lose some of the patients they were called to
assist, but that never stopped the feeling of defeat when they lost
someone before they could intervene and attempt to save them. Mercy
used to tell herself that everything was in God’s hands. She didn’t
delude herself with that platitude any longer. The only hands she
could count on were the two folded in her lap. She just needed the
opportunity to try.

AUTHOR
Bio and Links:
Born and
raised in the Lone Star state of Texas, Debra grew up among horses,
cowboys, wide open spaces, and real Texas Rangers. Pride in her
state and ancestry knows no bounds and it is these heroes and
heroines she loves to write about the most. She also draws upon a
variety of life experiences including working with abused children,
caring for baby animals at a major zoo, and owning a wedding planning
business (ah, romance!).
Debra’s
real pride and joys, however, are her son, an aspiring film actor,
and a daughter with aspirations to join the Federal Bureau of
Investigation. (more story ideas!) When she isn’t busy writing
about tall Texans and feisty heroines, she can be found cheering on
her Texas Tech Red Raiders, or heading off on another cruise
adventure. She read her first romance...Janet Dailey's Fiesta San
Antonio, over thirty years ago and became hooked on the genre.
Writing contemporary western romances, is both her passion and dream
come true, and she hopes her books will bring smiles...and sighs...
to all who believe in happily-ever-after’s.
The
Seymour Agency represents Debra and she is soon to have two
contemporary romances published by Spencer Hill/Tulip Romance and
Astraea Press. Debra invites you to visit her website at
www.debraholtbooks.com. She loves to hear from other aspiring
authors or readers via email at debraholtbooks@gmail.com.
