The Lawman's Redemption

Grace Reilly is every inch a lady from Minneapolis' High Society, but when her brother--her only living kin--seeks her help, little does she know he's about to embroil her in his thirst for revenge against the man he believes responsible for their mother's death. Jack Hollister gave up his dream of being a lawman after he shot his outlaw father dead. Now he's quite content living the cowboy life. But like any man with the law running through his blood he can't walk away from an investigation. Especially when there is a damsel in distress. Even if she intends to shoot him dead where he stands. Sprinkled with historical figures, The Lawman's Redemption is set in the Montana frontier. This Western is my first Pam Crooks book, and I am hooked. I love the world she has built around Great Falls, from the rutted snow covered streets to the small details of the barbershop. But let's not stop there; Jack Hollister is one heck of a hero who knows how to get what he wants, and he has an eye for detail, especially where Grace is concerned. And Grace Reilly, well, she's a perfect blend of outward composure and inner strength, even in light of her insecurities. She's not afraid to face her adversaries, but of course, she knows Jack will come to her rescue. The emotional strands of longing and forgiveness left me wanting more. The intimate details from simple hand holding to wiping away a tear wrapped around my heart and left me breathless. Even though The Lawman's Redemption is the third in this trilogy, I hope Crooks continues to write stories set in Great Falls, Montana.

This is a great book, got some bad words in it that I don't use, but all in all the book was very good. Jack Ketchum is out looking for his father and his gang that has always been really bad bandits. He found his father and things didn't go that well. He meets this beautiful young lady that he could not get out of his mind. He becomes a good lawman but is always on the side of the law not matter what or who it hurts. This book was sent to me by the author Pam Crooks for review.
