It's set in the s in a remote part of the west, so it has a mixture of Western with a little modern touches. I enjoyed that the book touched on things such as the beginning of forensic evidence, Prohibition and more. Ruby was a good heroine for this time period, although I do feel that the intimacy between her and Ethan was a bit too rushed. Ruby's children wind up playing a big role in how the ro This book is a fairly quick read, and I read all of it on a train ride back from New York City.
Ruby's children wind up playing a big role in how the romance turns out, but I don't think there was enough time spent with Ethan developing a relationship with them. There is a good reason for Ethan's reticence, but I would have loved to see a bit more with how he deals with Ruby's daughters.
The mystery that anchors the book dragged out a bit too much, and I think that time could be used to develop Ethan's relationship with the girls. Dec 17, Jessica rated it liked it Shelves: romance. I found this book a bit of a departure from the usual formula with the attraction between the hero and heroine beginning strongly from the get-go, instead of building slowly and gradually.
I was intrigued to find out how the author would keep the tension going and she managed to build a great plot, provide interesting historical background and keep the characters interesting in the midst of it all.

She has purchased the old boarding house that has been used for suspicious activities. Is she part of the ring? Potential husbands are coming out of the woodwork trying to attract the lovely Ruby but she's had enough of husbands. She had to shoot the last one and just wants to live a quiet life with her two daughters.
The main characters are fleshed-out and interesting; the situation is rather different. Ruby and Ethan are very attractive individuals with serious problems. I read this in one day because I couldn't put it down. I wish I had started with the first book; these stories are about Gustavsons, Denbys and Seavers.
Unbeknownst to Jessica, her mother-in-law to be had also asked the photographer if she would be willing to do a photo shoot. The resulting images are a visual testimony to the strength and resilience of a young woman struggling with loss.
All these thoughts came in my head - 'I'm standing beside no-one, my groom is not here with me'. But mixed in with the grief, there was a lot of laughter. And the mosquitoes were terrible, I was bit up! That's another thing we were laughing at. I have to be brave for myself and others. It's not like Kendall's coming back. Having the wedding day is part of the healing process for Jessica and her family, she says. Included in the group of family and friends were some of Kendall's colleagues from the fire department where he volunteered when he was killed attending an accident.
I know how guys are, they are usually late at weddings, they don't want be there. I was in shock that they took the time and they cared enough to do that for me. The images went viral when her photographer posted them on Facebook.
