Dangerous Ties by Debra Parmley

4.0

This western style story has a little bit of everything. You have that old time western feel of the robbery, the bad guys chasing who they thought have the gold, the damsel in distress and the cowboy to the rescue. Nick and Lillian build a love while living through extenuating circumstances. Nick is the protective type, easy to fall for while Lillian is trying to figure out where life will take her next. Being pursued for the gold leaves her vulnerable and afraid. With this strong man next to her, will she be protected? When Nick finds himself in a deal with the devil, how will it all play out? Parmley has woven a lot of suspense into this novella. With a fairly large supporting cast including BT, Grady and Carl, it would have been interesting to have additional storyline with these outlaws.They did heighten the excitement of the story. A fun listen.

Joshua Macrae is a soft sounding narrator, his voice is very soothing. I found his narration at times to be a little too easy,the characters need the gruffness and ruggedness of an outlaw. He does have a good pace for his reading and a good variety of voices.
