Entertaining

I enjoyed this story very much. It is entertaining, and pulled me into the story making me feel like I was part of it.

Now this is a great romantic suspense!

Looking for a western, historical romance? Love a little romantic suspense? Well here it is! Virginia Barlow gives us her addition to the Wylder West series and it's amazing! Not wanting to live the life her father has planned out for her, Maryanne takes things into her own hands. Planning her escape, nothing goes as planned, and when she finally finds herself in Wylder, she is in a heap of trouble. Lucky for her, she finds Jackson. He runs the livery and takes her in to nurse her wounds and keep her safe. But he refuses to give her his heart. When her past comes knocking on the door and things go crazy, he begins to realize all the things she never revealed. But will it be enough for him to chase her and bring her back to Wylder? I love this couple. Maryanne is an independent woman, and for the time, it's not an easy thing to be. I love her spunk and willingness to do what it takes to survive. Jackson has such a teddy bear heart. He is sweet, caring and protective! This is a great listen with a fantastic supporting cast of characters. Some to love and some to hate, it's the perfect mix of romance and suspense. A great addition to the series.

Dawson McBride continues to bring the Wylder West alive. His voice is one of my go to for a good comfort listen. He brings an easy pace, great voices and the perfect story telling. It's a pleasure to hear his narration.

She'll capture the Wylder Bachelor's heart.
