Jackson, Myla

This story is engaging and light. Unfortunately, that means some of the trauma of PTSD has been glossed over; if the story had been longer, that could have been delved into more deeply. The book also wraps up quickly, rushing to the finish line. Nevertheless, it's still a good selection for fans of military romances.

This latest in the "Ugly Stick Saloon" series (Boots and Leather) presents a scenario that could only happen in the pages of an erotic romance (strong sexual content). To quote Al Franken alter ego Stuart Smalley, that's okay. Jackson's characters are appealing enough to carry this Western fairy tale.
