The ending stunk, end of a paragraph .. end of the book. I also didnt like how the author ended Finns part of the story. the mystery of the story was good though.

Good slow burn between the main characters. No explicit type scenes at all.

A booming frontier town, a mail-order proxy marriage gone awry, a sheriff, and danger....
I expected a historical romance. Instead I read a historical romantic suspense, light on the romance, with a few open plots at the end, which leads me to believe there are sequels that will tie up the loose ends. For a setting of the late 1880's, the Emilia seemed too modern in her behaviour and thoughts. I thought a little more research could have been done for the book to make it more authentic.
On a positive note, the writing style was well executed in an old style format that I am accustomed to reading. The story is multi-layered and did keep my interest.
For a languid, easy read with a cup of tea/coffee beside you, then this is a good book to pick up.

I enjoyed this book. It was well written and had a good plot. I enjoyed the characters and the setting. The authors writing style was very enjoyable. Im very excited to read the next book in this series. I recieved this book from the author for free. A positive review was not required. All opinions are my own.
