Who will save her from herself?
After helping another girl escape, Mercedes Nobles suffers unspeakable abuse at Jericho. So when an American cowboy rides into town, she jumps at the opportunity to start a new life… even though she carries a secret that could destroy any chance of happiness for either of them.
John Durbin may have turned in his badge, but he still believes in living by a code of honor. That includes returning to a seedy Mexican saloon and rescuing a woman who helped his friends escape. However, the tables turn and he finds himself married in name only.
Struggling with cultural differences, they questions if their marriage will survive. Will John sacrifice his faith to make his new bride happy? How will Mercedes redeem herself when John learns of the secret she’s hiding?

My thoughts

"Twice Redeemed" is the second book in the Jericho Resistance series and I did not read the first book. I didn't feel totally lost, so it isn't necessary to read the first book first, but it would probably be better to meet the characters in the first book. The book had twists I did not expect it, which makes it fun that I was surprised by things. I liked watching Mercedes' journey to God and acceptance of her worth. John never told Mercedes whatever his past had been. I'm not sure if I would have learned more about him if I'd read the first book, but it would have been nice to know a little more about him. I just realized I have the first book, so I am definitely going to be reading it!
