Dude Review: I actually wanted to give this book a solid 3.5 but rounded up because there were parts of this book that I indeed did like. Did I love it? Not wholly - my reason being is I'm more attuned to other styles of historical western romances by stacey kayne, cheryl st. john. My reason for rating this book is because although it is a great concept, great story, it starts off real choppy, and continues to be a bit jumbled throughout. This is a more new-aged historical romance, a bit more adulty, not in the vulgar sense, but just in the writing style (i'm not an expert!) Too many characters are thrown my way in the first chapter, I stopped trying to keep score, the author tries to withhold lots of information that's presented later on in the story, that's ok, it just leads to more confusion in the beginning. The book just didn't flow smooth.. several scenes had lots of good emotion, good comedy throughout. Although there's a medium raw dose of sexual tension, the actual rollin in the hay are saved for about one chapter in the middle of the book, so a decent dose of hanky panky that's graciously not overdone. I can't say I'll be re-reading this book anytime soon, but I do want to say that if you can spare the time and money, please do give this a try as it's a good action packed story with lots of comedy, entertainment and emotion.
