Silent Sunset, book nineteen in the Redemption Mountain historical western romance series, is a novel with an HEA and no cliffhanger.
Shane Banderas is ready to move on with his life. As a deputy in Splendor, a town he’d grown to love, the time had come to buy a place, marry, and start a family. Six years had passed since losing the only woman he’d ever loved. Years he’d never get back. Time to live for the present, and with luck, a new kind of future.
Angela Baldwin refuses to live under the strict
standards of Boston society. Ready to break away, she and her close
friend head west toward the love stolen from her six long years before.
Refusing to consider he may have already married another, she boards the
train. She has little going for her except a determination to win him
back.
Shane can’t believe what is right in front of him. Angie, the woman
who’d left him years ago, is standing on the boardwalk, as if she
belongs there. He knew the truth about her. Trust isn’t a word she
understands.
With no desire to rekindle feelings for an old love, he continues his plans to court another. A beautiful woman with a sharp mind and quick wit. A woman he can trust and share a future.
Endangering any future is the threat of an old adversary seeking vengeance for a perceived wrong. An outlaw who enjoys killing, including those close to his prey. Everyone important to Shane.
4 STARS
This story made for a good western set in an even better community. There is a variety of good people in the town and plenty of action as well. Even the main "bad guys" and their motives are well drawn.
So
many misunderstandings and outright manipulations by other people have
got in the way of both Shane and Angela. They have a lot to work through if they can.
Angela's best friend, Martha who traveled with her to Splendor adds to the story. She is enthusiastic and loyal when it comes to backing her best friend. I think a story would be good about her as well.
As
the story nears it's end the danger increases racing on to a surprising
twist. A good Epilogue is included. That is something that I am
always wanting in a story too.
