This is a fascinating story! Garlock guarantees conflict by having a neer-do-well brother in England illegally sell off his half-sisters (Victoria McKenna) inheritance (the Double M Ranch, in Wyoming Territory) to Mason Mahaffey (and his young siblings).
Victoria is prepared for a no-holds-barred legal fight with Mason, but finds that Masons siblings are the innocent victims of their feud.
Mason refuses to leave the ranch and Victoria refuses to surrender control. They share the house while the legal wheels turn slowly. Each knows they are correct but Mason has a compromise. He offers to marry Victoria so she can stay; the young woman is underwhelmed with the offer!
Victoria remains hostile to Mason but begins to understand the difficulties the younger Mahaffeys have endured and softens her feelings toward them.
Out of the blue, folks are shooting at Victoria and Mason and they must figure out why their lives are in peril. They join forces to fight the unknown enemy and put aside some of their hostility.
These are two strong characters that arent ready to give an inch; they are fascinating to watch. The secondary characters are fully developed and do much to move the story along.
This is the best book Ive read in a long time! I couldnt put it down until the last page. Enjoy!

A New York Times extended list bestselling author, Dorothy Garlock has won acclaim and awards for her unique ability to convey both the romance and reality of frontier America. Here she presents one of her most beloved stories, a tale of a woman in danger of losing both her home and her heart. Victoria McKenna is a Western woman--tough on the outside and soft on the inside, where she keeps her dreams. Now both her strength and her heart will be challenged. Her late pa's cattle ranch on Wyoming's notorious Outlaw Trail, the only home she has ever known, has been underhandedly sold to a stranger named Mason Mahaffey. Soon Victoria finds herself confronting a rangy, handsome cowboy with five orphaned brothers and sisters--a man whose level blue eyes suggest she has met her match. Her choice is clear. She can fight him with all her might . . . or listen to the feelings that tell her Mason is the right man for both this wild country and a woman born of the West.
GREAT BOOK, DOROTHY GARLOCKS AT HER BEST, SHE IS A GIFTED STORYTELLER
Good short historical romance.
An "A+" - you'll want to keep this one to read over and over.
Victoria McKenna was a Western woman--tough when she had to be, but soft, too, inside where she kept her secrets and dreams. Her cattle ranch on Wyoming's notorious Outlaw Trail was the only home she had ever known, and her pa had left it to her when he died.
This is a really good book, one that you won't want to put down. Dorothy Garlock is an excellent writer.
