I'm surprised at the positive reviews this novella has. It was well-written, but the characters and plot seemed to get progressively more absurd. For example: the hero and heroine bicker like children upon meeting, stubbornly refusing to explain their behaviors to each other simply to be contrary. The hero bodily arrests the heroine in the middle of her suffrage speech, yet she's fine with him kissing her moments later. The hero has to be the most incompetent sheriff I've ever read about, lusting over a new visitor to his town and missing a simple fact that cleared up the case in about two seconds. It wasn't a terrible novella, but it wasn't a great one either - the romance was iffy, and the storyline even more so.
