review 1: Abby was definitely an interesting character. Lily Graison kept me guessing as to what secret she was hiding and why she needed to marry any willing man. Morgan was the town Sheriff and he was intrigued by Abby and wanted to get to know her. Before long they fall for each other and then Abby's past comes back to haunt her. It had some twists and turns and we eventually find out what happened to make Abby go on the run. Overall a decent, easy read.
review 2: The Lawman takes place in 1869 and starts with Abigail running from her ex-lover. She decides to be a mail order bride and goes to Montana to meet the man she has agreed to marry but he has been arrested and not there to marry her. Even though she is out of money, she has to get back on the stage coach
... moreand keep moving or get married right away. She enters the saloon to get the stage coach driver and accidentally starts a brawl that destroys the bar. Marshal Morgan Avery walks in on the kayos and arrests her. He takes her to the jail and locks her in a cell.This story is uniquely set in the time period. It both conforms with and goes against the times.I liked the characters in The Lawman. Abigail was feisty and tried to get herself out of the problems she unknowingly created. I was surprised with how brazen Abigail was for that time period. Morgan was a good man and always wanted to do the 'right thing'. But the fact that he ALWAYS wanted sex lowered his appeal to me. When Abigail and Morgan got together, it felt more of a business arrangement than attraction for each other so that part wasn't believable. less

Silly. The kind of romance that makes people roll their eyes when you say you like romance.
