More than a love story, this book is also a good ole-fashioned "shoot-em up" western. I haven't read her books before and this book was the third of a trilogy. I definitely plan to read the first two. Captain Walker Larson is sent home to protect his wife from a killer. His presence there was requested by the town sheriff who is unable to protect Lacy Walker, editor of the only newspaper in town, twenty-four hours a day. He figures only her husband can do that and the Army agrees with him. The problem is Captain Walker was married to Lacy by proxy after his father bought her for his son in a wife lottery. The story goes on from there as these two strangers who have only met once before learn to tolerate each other and more. It is an adventure with interesting subplots which will obviously lead to more books in this series. It was a fun distraction that makes you realize that if men only figured out what every woman knows, romance novels wouldn't be so interesting, that is, there are three little words that make all the difference, namely I LOVE YOU!
