Love on the Range (Brother's in Arms #3) Mary Connealy

 

Wyatt Hunt is temporarily bedridden and completely miserable. Somehow Molly Garner's limited skills have made her the most qualified in their circle to care for Wyatt. But by the time he's healed, she's fed up with him and the whole ungrateful family. For even worse than his grumpiness were the few unguarded moments when he pulled at her heartstrings, and she has long determined to never marry.

Molly gets a job as the housekeeper at Oliver Hawkins's ranch. But really she's with the Pinkertons, spying to find out if Hawkins has abused women and if he's guilty of murder.

Wyatt refuses to let her risk it alone, convincing Hawkins that he's abandoning his own ranch, angered by his two brothers' coming to claim a big chunk of it.

But when another Pinkerton agent gets shot, they realize Hawkins isn't the only danger. The Hunt brothers will have to band together to face all the troubles of life and love that suddenly surround them.

My thoughts:

Love on the Range is the third book in this series by Ms. Connealy, and I am sorry to see it end. I started to fall in love with this merry band of misfits as they are thrown together by a father who has kept so many secrets from his family or families.

I loved catching up with the characters to see what funny and dangerous situations they would find themselves in.  I love the way this author crafts characters who you care about and what happens in their lives.  This series is filled with unforgettable characters, a storyline that keeps the reader engaged and, in this book, a satisfying ending to this series.

I received a copy from the publisher.  All opinions are my own.
