10 STARS ***********

I LOVED this book. The hero and heroine are both such strong interesting characters and the clear precise writing style is such a pleasure to approach. The action starts from the beginning and takes you on a wild adventure, full of romance and steamy love scenes. I am a Connie Mason fan for life and can't wait to read more of her books! What a great movie this would make!

Jess and Ariel-SPOILERS

Favorite scene with Ariel- Pretending to be a boy when she came face to face with the outlaws. She was one smart cookie. And brave. Favorite scene with Jess- Pretending to be the whoremaster to save Ariel. Together- Making Jess choose between her and the outlaws. What did you like about Ariel- She wouldn't let any hardships keep her from her ranch. And Jess. She was a tough cookie. What didn't you like about Ariel- I didn't like when she gave Jess an ultimatum. Her or the outlaws. Jess loved his brother. His death deeply hurt Jess. He shouldn't have been forced to choose. She wouldn't listen to Rosalie regarding neighbor dude. What did you like about Jess- His strength. His sense of humor. How he put the fear of God into people. His love for Ariel. Although he wanted to kill the bad guys, he put Ariel first. What didn't you like about Jess- There wasn't anything I didn't like about Jess. Casting Jess, I'd cast Julian McMahon. Casting Ariel, I'd cast Renee Zellweger.

4.5 stars for a Wild Ride in the West!

This is an oldie but goodie from Ms. Mason. Written back in 1991, the age doesn't show as most books do from other authors in that same time period. A brutish hero and somewhat dim heroine. These two were very strong and very much worthy of a novel. The hero was strong yet vulnerable and lovable. He made the reader wish he were real and we rooted for him constantly. He never took advantage of the heroine nor was selfish or mean, he was just plain perfect...in the sense that a hero can be 'perfect' without being a softy, boring moron, lol. Ms. Mason really hit the mark here. As with all her heroes, she always manages to turn them into these gods that we the reader wish we could reach into the pages and bring them out. Jess Wilder, former US Marshall and now Texas Bounty Hunter is that man. He's got his demons, but he never takes his eye off the ball and turns into a ...excuse me, but, jerk. The heroine was far worthy of Jess. She was good and kind and never whiny nor flighty. Ariel Leland impressed me with her wit and courage and showed the kind of determination I imagine a lot of women of her day did on the ranches in Southwest Texas. Their love was very real to the reader. In all, I liked this book a lot. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because I felt the villains were so interesting, Ms. Mason should've fleshed them out just a bit more and given them more parts in the story. They were very impressive and intriguing. I was left needing to know more about them. Ariel Leland's stagecoach is attacked by bandits and she is found by bounty hunter, Jess Wilder. He mistakes her for one of the two bank robbers and killers back in San Antonio, Ms. Tilly Cowles. Apparently, Ariel looks identical to her and was even traveling with the two, but now, no one is there except her and she is shackled to the sheriff, who is dead now. What's more frightening is the fact that Jess is attracted to the murdering witch who claims to be another. This wont work, he has to get her to the Marshall and find her lover. Things get hairy when everything seems to go awry for Jess and it turns out, his hunt for the elusive Tilly and Dillon for the past 2 years is in vain, this woman isn't Tilly. Now what? He made a solemn promise to his dying brother to hunt them down. But this woman named Ariel seems like she may need him. Loyalties torn and determination to see justice, Jess must decide. Can their love survive? Tracy Talley~@

A Must Read Book, Caring and Romantic

Hard Headed Jess, thought he had the answers to everything, mistaking Ariel as another women wanted for murder and bank robberies. She soon doesn't take long to get under his skin and the tavles are turned on him as he finds hes isn't always right. Very funny. Will read again!

Humourous & Romantic all- in- one!

I thought that Jess and Ariel were perfect for each other. They could not stand each other at first and they could not get enough of each other at the end. I like the way Jess was so possessive when Ariel was concerned. It was really hilarious reading about how they fought. It was my favorite Connie Mason book and what started me reading her books.
