Very weak four stars
This wasn’t one of this authors books. It was still good, storyline characters etc. just didn’t have the same feel that the others had, almost like it was written by someone else. But it was still a good book to help finish up the series.
Sweet Historical Romance
I loved getting to know all these ex-soilders and the women of Pistol Ridge! I guess there’s one more book, but the character Scrooge was only mentioned the one time that I remember! I highly recommend this series!
Great series. I loved every book!!
When Laura arrives in Pistol Ridge she is very taken by Preacher until he accused her. But then he needs her help after an attack. Both their feelings changed but a HEA is still far away. Will the last standing man stay a bachelor or will he choose for love?
It was so much fun to see all these men and women fall. The community strength and friendship they feel for each other. I recommend this whole series and am sad to see it ended.
I loved the instant attraction between Preacher and Laura. The Doctor arrived in town to take over her uncles medical practice. She was immediately put to use at Pistol Springs helping Jo come back from the birth of her child. Preachers attraction was immediate.
Laura had a mind of her own and was stubborn as an ox, in Preachers eyes. She decides she can travel the road between Pistol Ridge and Pistol Springs alone… in spite of all the warnings she has received. Not the smartest idea she has had to date. It results in an injury to Preacher and she must take care of him in her surgery until he recovers.
There is drama, hilarity… we are talking attack chickens here…. some sadness as one of the towns beloved loses life. But that will remain a secret until you read the final installment of this fabulous fan driven series! I loved that the Author included her readers in the story. It made everything come alive for you. This entire Pistol Ridge Series is a must read!
I received an ARC of this book and am choosing to leave an honest review.
So exciting to finally read Preacher’s story!
Laura Malburn had come to town to take over her uncle’s medical practice and she had hoped she would’t get the resistance to a woman doctor she had back east and having to fight off the men thinking to take advantage of her.
When the Sheriff Rosevelt visited her, he had Preacher with him. Shaking the sheriff’s hand she then took Preacher’s. “looking into his silvery-grey eyes, a small tug at her belly made her realize he was not normal townfolk. This man had danger written all over him, starting with that dimple in his cheek when he smiled.” Oh yes.. and there was an instant shock as their hands touched.
I would say this was my favorite story of the series, but that would be hard because I have enjoyed each one but this one was special. Preacher has always seemed mysterious trying to figure him out and with him always saying he’d not get married like all the others.
Take a journey to see how the doctor and Preacher try to make their way to a happy ending. You won’t be able to put it down once you start!!
While this is supposed to be the last story in the Pistol Ridge series, it is certainly not the least. This is Pierson (a/k/a Preacher) and Dr. Laura’s story. Preacher is the last of the seven war buddies not married and who vows he will never fall in love and marry. Wellll…it didn’t quite go as he planned and as earlier in the series things get exciting and stuff happens. You will, of course, meet all the friends from the earlier stories as well as some new ones. The character development is excellent. I really enjoyed this story and highly recommend it.
Wonderful story of romance . The author wrote a few good bible verses. Couldn’t put it down.
