Stats: HR Western, M/F, open door, stand alone.
Notes: I enjoyed this - but, like with most Beverly Jenkins’ books, I found the historical interjections a little annoying - they’re too underdeveloped/unconnected to add depth to the plot or world for me, but I appreciate the effort at research. I found the plot of this one a bit bananas and hard to follow, though I really liked both main characters - and found them to have depth, chemistry and a good balance of feistiness, reasonableness and kindness.
