I've read one other book by this author, Loving Liza Jane, which is book 1 in the Little Hickman Series. I have the rest of that series as well as this series on my watch list.
Hannah Grace feels that she is the least pretty of her sisters. She works in her father's general store and is practically engaged the town doctor. The only thing he seems to be in love with is himself, but Hannah refuses to see that she doesn't love him.
Gabe is the town's new sheriff and he arrives in town with a little surprise. Jesse, a scruffy looking little boy, has hidden in the back of Gabe's wagon. When Gabe tries to buy the little boy some new clothes, Hannah sees the bruises on the boy and suspects the worst. Once she finds out that he's the sheriff and he has the best intentions, the two join forces. Hannah takes care of Jesse during the day and Gabe takes him home at night.
Jesse isn't talking because he's on the run from a gang of criminals. He witnessed a murder and the gang knows that he saw them. They've been trying to track him down and make sure that he'll never be able to testify. The gang is heading to Gabe's quiet town.
I enjoyed this book. It was an engaging story that I would have had a harder time putting down had it been on my Kindle. Since it was a normal book, I was forced to put it down more than I wanted to. I hope that other books by this author drop in price. She seems to be a really good author and I would like to be able to read more from her. Good Book!
