A Marshal of Her Own by Linda La RoqueI hadn't read any of Miss LaRoque's work before but was pleased to read this novella. It had a really good feel to it, a sweet romance that gently develops. Marshal Cole Jeffers would be charming man to meet if time travelled back to the 1890s, his thoughtfulness in juxtaposition to the toughness of his job-though the reader is never really shown anything of the real realities of his harsh justice. Dessa Wade is a spirited character, yet has times when the situations she encounters shows her vulnerability. She has a big problem to solve- stay in 1890 with a gorgeous hunk of man in Cole, or return to her own time of 2010. Miss LaRoque only hints at her mechanism of time travel, lets you glimpse Cole's incredibly brief period of being in 2010, but makes it clear Cole and Dessa want to remain in Prairie, Texas of the 1890s.  It was an enjoyable read!
