The Major's Daughter
(Fort Reno #3)
by
Caroline Adams returns
to Indian Territory craving adventure after tiring of society life. When
she comes across swaggering outlaw Frisco Smith, his dreams to obtain a
piece of property on the Unassigned Lands are very persuasive. When the
gun sounds, they find themselves battling over a claim--and both dig in
their heels.
This is one of my new favorite books by this author- which is really saying something. Probably because it's equal parts fascinating history and interesting characters. As much as I liked Caroline, I liked Frisco even more. I felt the tension and worry as they navigated sticky situations in uncharted waters - competing over land, starting a new town, dealing with likely corruption, personal interests vs the good of the group, major disagreements with friends and family, just to name a few. The problems were believable and without easy solutions. Caroline and Frisco both brought a good mix of grit, wit, humor and charm. I already can't wait to read it again.
