Sisters of Mercy Flats by Lori Copeland
4.0
Some folk said they had it coming; others said it was a shame the McDougal sisters hadn't gotten their justice sooner.
Sisters who are con artists in the 1860s? Yes, please!
I couldn't tell you where I picked this up, but it's been on my TBR shelves for a bit, and when I wanted something short and hisfic, it called my name. And WOW did I enjoy that a lot.
Disgruntled-at-one-another to fake-relationship to taking-care-of-a-baby to one-of-us-is-dying to lovers is hands down one of my favorite romance plots, and it's in full swing here. I absolutely flew through this book, which is my first Lori Copeland, if I'm not mistaken.
Was it cheesy? Yes.
Was it weirdly paced? Kinda.
Does that change the fact that I loved it? Nope.
Abigail cracked me up, which considering she definitely had opportunity to annoy me instead, is a great thing. Barrett was the perfect "I'm grouchy and I don't care about you... wait oh no I care now" character. Baby Daniel was so precious (though I won't deny that "mmm whatcha say" was playing in my head through the entirety of the scene in which he's introduced xD)
I'm intrigued to read the rest of the series just to see what shenanigans the sisters got up to, but idk if it'll be any time soon. Overall, I enjoyed it very much, and I'm very glad I read it. 4.5 stars because my heart says 5 but my head says that's too much, lol.
