Carlene Keim Releases Latest Western Novel, THE BUCHANANS: CHANCE by BWW News Desk
- August 17, 2015 A sheriff's deputy finds an unexpected sight when he reaches the sheriff's home: His lifeless body in a pool of blood and no sign of his wife and son. Fearing that his hot-tempered wife finally snapped, according to the story in this new novel, they call in the Texas Rangers. The handsome lawman brought in to help with the case is Chance Buchanan, a member of one of the most prestigious Texas Ranger families, although he didn't know it for years.
'The Buchanans: Chance' is the third book for Carlene Keim, continuing the stories begun in 'The Buchanans: Storm' and 'The Buchanans: Cole,' where Chance learned he's related to the infamous Buchanans. The Rangers are feeling pressure to find the small-town sheriff's killer and his kidnapped son. Chance's hunt leads him to Paddock, Texas, and fate steps in when he meets the beautiful Sara Dieterich, whose heart is as big as her confidence is small.
Although setbacks and unexpected discoveries in the case lead Chance to doubt his abilities to do his job and question his heart, an ambush points him in a direction that may lead to the killer. In the end, the man who never found a reason to settle down learns sometimes solving a case isn't the greatest reward life can offer.
BlueInk Review, one of Dog Ear Publishing reviews services, writes that Keim's first book, 'The Buchanans: Storm' is 'a well-crafted romantic thriller with exciting action scenes, steamy but tasteful sex scenes and a denouement that is surprising and satisfying.' This review envelops the tone for Carlene's next two books, Cole and Chance, which entail qualities of writing with greater adventure and stunning revelations.
Author Carlene Keim spent five years as a volunteer tutor and mentor at Syracuse-Dunbar-Avoca High School after working for four years with her husband at his family's business. Keim spent more than 25 years as a teacher and substitute teacher before entering the family business. She has a bachelor's degree in vocal and instrumental music and a bachelor's degree in elementary education from Midland University. The author enjoys traveling, singing, preserving fruits and vegetables from her husband Bruce's garden, painting, drawing and writing. They live near Syracuse and have three grown children.
