Wild as the West Texas Wind
by Jackie North
Heart racing intense ride. But so sweet
This is the 2nd book of Jackie North’s Love Across Time Story featuring Zach and Layton.
Zach received a letter from 1892 from his best friend who had disappeared months ago. He was devastated and kept looking for him when a freak storm sent him back to 1892, the year Laurie sent the letter.
Layton was a young man who was an unwilling part of the Ketchum Gang. He was sweet boy who just wanted a house to stay in and a permanent place to rest his head.
When Zach interrupts Tom Ketchum’s poker game, he is abducted and threatened to be sold to a brothel to make up for the lost money.
The story is a sweet slide into true love. It’s not a easy ride to the finish line. Layton has been programmed to rely only on Tom and Tom holds all the cards.
Zach refuses to back down and constantly fights against the bully Tom.
But like recognizes like and soon Zach sees the sweetness in Layton and he works on getting Layton out from under Tom’s thumb.
This book was intense. I spent a long time dreading the next chapter because I knew that Tom would be there. But I also wanted to see what happened.
Jackie North takes the time period and creates a plausible believable world. She doesn’t shoehorn modern day into the past. She lets it mingle and cooperate. I loved the pace of the story and I loved seeing Zach and Layton come together. It was one of the best romances I have read. It felt so real like it could happen to anyone.
If you like westerns, romance, and time travel, you have hit the trifecta.
