The Touch of Fire by Linda Howard

5.0

Another great historical Western by Linda Howard. Annie Parker came west to practice medicine but didn't count on the outlaw Rafe McCay kidnapping her away to treat his gunshot wound. Bounty hunters are chasing him for a crime he didn't commit. In reality, there's a fascinating historical reason concerning the South's missing gold after the Civil War.
The historical details are wonderful, and I liked how actual history was incorporated into this story. Annie and Rafe are an interesting pair, with her being a female doctor and him being one of Morgan's Raiders previously. It's a sweeping story that encompasses the breadth of the country.
