Search - The Rustler (Stone Creek, Bk 3)

I found this book a quick and easy read. I expected a little more "fire" sooner than it arrived, and it was kinda like your first kiss, great expectation and over way before you expected it. And it retrospect not as great as you remembered, but still warms your toes.....

It wasn't what I had hoped. Not nearly as good as Wyatt's brothers story "A Wanted Man." This one seemed a little slow and didn't really hold my interest.

And, it's a return to Stone Creek. This time, the story centers around Wyatt Yarbro, from the notorious train-robbing clan. His attempt as a cattle rustler fails, so he winds up in Stone Creek, at a revival tent, and falls in love with Sarah (who works at a bank). There's lots of action in this one, and some guest appearances by Rowdy (the current sheriff) and his wife, Lark. For awhile, Wyatt had to wear the deputy badge himself, and he wasn't too bad at it!

Overall, I was kinda disappointed in this book. There wasn't nearly an equal amount of passion that Ms. Miller normally puts in her frontier westerns. So, that was lacking. Also, at the end, she has Sarah saying something to Wyatt and ready to do someting that just didn't match up with her character. My jaw dropped open and I said "What???" right outloud. (I'm not saying what it is, tho.)

Read it and see what you think...

Very Good!
