review 1: Cute with women who are not scared of kicking butt. three stories in one book.Doctor in Petticoats: Starts with Beth, who has been back East to go to nursing school and has plans to come back home to be a doctor. Beth is on her way home specifically to make it to her sister, Mandy's, wedding. The only other person on the stagecoach is a drunk who smells like it has been weeks since his last bath and does nothing but sleep. On a steep and dangerous mountain pass, they come up on a wreck. Low and behold, the drunk is actually a doctor. Things don't go as Beth had planned of course, but with a little help and a lot of patience, she makes her dreams come true. Tells a lot of Mandy's story in this Wrangler in Petticoats: Tells Mandy still, but this is actually Sally's story. On... more her way to help Mandy with the third in three years, her party is set upon by dry-gulchers. She is wounded and ends up falling off a cliff. Certain is going to die, she sees the last thing she expects. She sees a man at the bottom. When the dry-gulchers go to strip the dead, they can't find the cowpokes body. This sets them on a long and dangerous mission to silence all witnesses.Sharpshooter in Petticoats: This is now officially Mandy's story. She is a recent widow, but is hold up in that dang castle her idiot husband built for her and her children's on safety. Until a man from the past comes back into her life to complicate things. Those dry-gulchers and some old bodyguards of Sidney's are actually family and believe there is a score to settle.
review 2: Mary Connealy loves to write about strong women. Women who can out-hunt, out-shoot, and out-rope any man alive. Her heroines are vibrant, beautiful women who are not afraid to use the talents that God gave them even if the men in their lives do not understand them. This is what makes her books so riveting. Her humorous writing style along with her vivid descriptions that would leave Festus Hagan (of Gunsmoke fame) speechless are simply priceless. I have read the Lassoed in Texas series and the Montana Marriages series as well as Sophie’s Daughters. While all of these books are delightful, I must admit that I like Sophie’s Daughters best. Maybe it’s just because each book seems to get better than the last. I also think it has to do with the delightful way that the Sophie series neatly ties up all the loose ends and connects characters from all of the first books. If you love a good western, if you love a good love story, if you love humor and wit; you will love these books. Start at the beginning and read all nine books. By the time you are through you will be ready to rope a calf, shoot a grizzly, and read tracks like the written word—all while you build a house, plant a garden, raise six children and keep the gleam in your man’s eye. less
