| After a long and tragic journey that ultimately ended their father's life Kate
and Priscilla Stafford finally made it to Silver Falls, Oregon. They had no
idea who the mysterious Widow Keller was or why she left their father the
ranch in her will, but Kate had every intention of making it a success. When
Kate and Priscilla went into town, Kate is nearly run down by a horse when
she is rescued by a handsome cowboy named Justin Chadwick.
For the past two years Justin has been searching for Grady Miller the man who murdered his brother. Justin was told that Grady’s brother Johnny Miller owned a ranch here in Silver Falls. So Justin got a job as Forman at Johnny Miller’s ranch in an attempt to get information about Grady’s whereabouts, then he would go after the man who murdered his brother. It seemed that every time Kate was in trouble Justin was there to save her. When she got thrown from her horse, or thrown in jail Justin, was right there to help. Kate knew she was falling in love with Justin but how could she convince him to stay? Even though Justin was in love with Kate he could not ask her to wait for him, he had to get the man that killed his brother, only then would he be free to live his life. Lissa Larer has done such a great job in creating such vivid detail. I felt like I was right there with the characters in the book. Kate and Justin are so well matched they make the story come alive. Thrown into this story is a great group of secondary characters that I could not help but fall in love with. Any reader who likes a good western will love HOW TO LASSO A COWBOY….
