In my head, I have visions of the old west and San Francisco in particular. I see it very differently from the rest of the world, or so I thought. It has taken me countless novels from this author to realize why I like her writing so much. Was it the way she tells us a story and makes us feel like part of the book itself? Or maybe it's the way she introduces characters to us that make us feel for them and want them to stay safe when danger lurks close by or the way we plead for them to have that one more kiss making the scene that much more dramatic. It could be a combination of all of these for many readers, but for this one, it's the way she builds a backdrop for each of her stories. She doesn't just introduce new characters and rehash an old scene where we seem to lose interest in the setting itself. Shirleen Davies brings us an exciting world of intrigue, suspense, romanticism and rawness that is the old west. At least what I envision it as. Wilder Than the Rest may be the last book in this series, but I don't ever think that it will be the last we hear of this author. I am sure right now as I write this, she is hard as work on her next exciting tale of romance and dangerous interludes and it's for that reason that I thank her for all of her hard word and the entertainment she has given me thus far.
