Pinkerton Women

This was a good book for a fast escape read. The mystery was well executed and the characters were realistic -- and the history of the Pinkerton Women a a good piece of historic "trivia" with which to base a novel. Personally, I think Willow gave in too soon and too often. With the mystery involved, the sex scenes actually detracted from the book. But I give it 4 stars for a fast escape read.

3.5 stars for this Pinkerton Woman

Very strong characters in this book. I really enjoyed the fact the woman was an agent for Pinkertons but I did think she "gave in" a bit too quickly for my standards. But overall a good fun read.

Lovely

Love Willow and Brandt. Neither is wimpy. I dislike heroines who can't stand up to the hero. Makes me wonder what the guys see in these spineless females. Also, the treatment of her brother is so sweet. I look forward to reading more books by Ms. Betts.

Willow Hastings is a Pinkerton agent out to find the murderer of a fellow employee. In order to get the case she makes a deal with her boss, and finds herself playing wife to the irritating Brandt Donovan. When Brandt's not aggravating her, he's driving her to distraction in a totally carnal way. These two headstrong people have a murder to find, but as they're searching they find something else. Could it be love?Heidi Betts combines a heart-thumping historical romance with a heart-pounding mystery in this delightful story!
