I loved the character of Leah, a girl who is raised in a town under siege by a tyrannical sheriff. Leah is educated in the art of self-protection and wilderness arts by a crusty mountain man, another great character. And Jace Gage, the bounty hunter in question, is just the right guy for the feisty Leah. It's a great, over the top Western tale that readers of the penny press would have adored.
Now on to reviewing three books for Booklist: Briar Patch by Linda Sole, a soap opera drama set in Britain; Silver Sparks by Starr Ambrose, one woman's crusade against a killer media star amid the glare of the popular press; and Demons Like It Hot by Sidney Ayers, a sequel to Demons Prefer Blondes about the world going to hell because two women opened the wrong antique box.
