Shane McCall has dedicated his life to rising above the smear his father put on his last name. As sheriff of Marietta, Montana, his reputation is finally above reproach and he aims to keep it that way. A difficult task made impossible since he made the mistake of kissing Silver Adams. Courting a saloon owner is not Shane’s idea of respectability, but when his brother comes to town and turns her … her head, Shane realizes the only arms Silver belongs in are his.
Silver Adams has stared down many challenges, but when she moves to Montana, she finally has independence and a sense of pride. With her close circle of friends and a successful saloon, the only thing missing from her life is love. When Silver finds everything she has been looking for in the arms of an upstanding lawman, she feels her dreams have come true until her disreputable past threatens all Silver holds dear, and now Silver must make the hardest decision of her life—telling Shane the truth.

I loved how Shane did everything he could to deny his love and attraction to Silver until his brother comes into the picture. But also how other women treated her because they didn’t approve of her business
Shane is the Sheriff of the town that he grew up in. His childhood and his family were not well regarded in the community and Shane has worked hard to overcome the reputation.
Silver owns a saloon and while Shane finds her attractive he can not act on his feelings as a saloon owner is not a reputable job for a woman to have.
Shane’s brother comes into town and forces Shane to consider his feelings for Silver but when she tells him a secret from her past he may not want to have anything to do with her again.

Slow read
Wonderful read for the hopeless romantic.
Very well written great story!
This story has a good plot that keeps the reader interested. The characters are well-rounded and dynamic. There was enough action to keep the story going at a fast pace. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romance set in the old west.
A Sheriff’s Passion by Michelle Beattie is a historical western romance. Ms. Beattie has delivered a well-written book and filled it with fantastic characters. Silver arrived in Marietta and got busy turning a bar into a saloon. Shane is sheriff of Marietta. Both are weighed down with baggage from their past. Shane and Silver’s story is loaded with drama, action, suspense and sizzle. I enjoyed reading A Sheriff’s Passion and will happily read more from Michelle Beattie in the future. A Sheriff’s Passion is book 3 of the Frontier Montana Series but can easily be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
Excellent book and entire series.
