Runaway Reviews
-
How this book has gotten so many great reviews is beyond me. There was no character development; two days and the male and female characters were in love? The female character had next to no apprehension about marrying a man she just met. The whole thing played out like a melodrama.

Old style western

3.5 really. The premise was pretty good, but everything went way too easy, too easy :/
-
CONCEPT of the story was great: heroine running away from evil stepfather, changes her name and poses as mail order bride, marries hunky Texas Ranger who is also posing as someone else in an attempt to catch an outlaw - they fall in love, happily ever after.
Loved the hero. Absolutely adored him. Alpha male, dedicated and honest and didn't take any crap from anyone.
I'm on the fence about the heroine. I can understand her running and changing her name, no problem with that. But she goes from virgin on her wedding night to wanting to have sex multiple times a day, right away. Just seemed kind of odd.
The writing was horrible. Stilted and choppy, almost seemed like a first effort but I know this author has many published works. If this is an indication of her style, will not be reading anything else by her. -
I read this through Kindle Unlimited. I really debated between 4 and 4.5 stars. I loved this story. A women threatened with a forced marriage takes the place of a mail order bride to get out of town fast. Unbeknownst to her, the man who contracted for the bride is an outlaw who is basically using it and the ranch as a cover for hiding more outlaws. Luckily for her, the outlaw is stopped on his way to the ranch and when she gets there she meets the Texas ranger posing as the outlaw. This a well written historical western with wonderful characters and great story telling. The heat level was a 6 (1=Christian, 5= fade to black, 10= erotica). I've been reading Bobbi Smith for years and I love they are now available on kindle.

Picked this book up at the train depot at the book exchange. Enjoyed reading it while riding for 5 hours. Good western love story.
