It is always very exciting to find an author you have not read before. I was very excited when Lily Graison said she would be happy to participate in an interview, which I will do after I have read and reviewed the second book "The Outlaw". I immediately got busy reading her first Historical western romance, "The Lawman". I zipped through this book in just over a day and now like so many times before I am stuck waiting...waiting....waiting for the next book in the Willow Creek series. Why do I continue to torture myself LMAO! We all have experienced that, "It can't be written and released soon enough!" torturous wait.I was laughing out loud at the bar brawl that we step into the minute we crack the book. Abigail is a magnet for trouble and it amuses me. *grin* She is on the run from Fletcher, has a no-show husband, And immediately mistaken for a whore in the Diamond Back Saloon. Since she only has a few coins left in her purse she is stuck in this tiny town and is in need of a new husband.Lily is really good at descriptive writing and the description of the filth and smell in the jail cell about turned my stomach. I really felt like I was back in the old west and the realistic details were a breath of fresh air, or should I say stench. You just know it was a dirty, smelly, world back then and Lily gives us the reader the realistic west.The Lawman is a mixture of romance, drama and heat between the two main characters that made it hard to put the book down. I kept wanting to see what would happen next and why Abigail was on the run from Fletcher. "*whispers*....you will find out so keep reading"The Lawman himself, Morgan Averly, is a handsome, sex god of a man, with his green eyes, long dark hair and a ravenous appetite for Abigail. This is a man with all the right moves if you know what I mean. Of course there were moments when you wanted to smack him and say, "stop being a stupid man", but what man exists that a woman doesn't want to slap upside the head right?Abby on the other hand was far from timid and had a long list of secrets that kept surprising me right till the final chapter. Of course she sometimes made me want to scream or cry but that is just good writing.The Lawman is a mixture of romance, drama and heat between two characters that made it hard to put the book down. I kept wanting to see what would happen next and why Abigail was on the run from Fletcher.This was a fun book to read, my only complaint is that it was to short. Thank you Lily for a fun story!
