Inspirational Romance

 

I admit after the last entry in this series, THE GENERAL’S NOTORIOUS WIFE, I was a little hesitant to start reading this latest story.  I am so glad I didn’t miss THE OUTLAW’S TWIN SISTER, it is an action packed, heartwarming story that I read in one sitting.

Julianna Ortiz faces a tough choice; she must walk away from her twin brother who sits in a Mexican prison awaiting his execution.  While he and his gang want Julianna to help him escape, she has her standards and will not commit a crime.  Before long, she meets an infamous gunslinger, DelNorte, who has just been robbed.  She takes an instant dislike to him, and despite her nephew’s awe, she orders DelNorte to never show up in her hometown, Lordsburg, New Mexico.

When DelNorte is wounded and lays unconscious, Julianna brings him home to nurse him back to health.  This may not be a smart move on her part, as she begins falling in love with him for DelNorte may be a dangerous criminal.  When her absentee father returns after twenty years and then just as suddenly disappears again, Julianna’s world is about to change, and DelNorte is going to be by her side no matter what!

THE OUTLAW’S TWIN SISTER definitely won this reader over from the start.  I quickly fell for DelNorte, the tough, broody gunslinger with the mysterious past!  Reminiscent of old Zane Grey books, I was swept away with the gentle storyline, romance and mystery all blended together.  Western fans will not be disappointed with this latest story in “The Belles of Lordsburg” series.
