Luck Of The Draw Pinkerton And An Ass
Luck of the Draw
Pinkerton and an assailant want to find Abigail Breckenridge with both interested in her; one because of what she did which led to a price on her head and the other for what he assumes she saw. Knowing she is in trouble, Abigail changes her surname to Butler heading west as a widowed schoolteacher. On the stage she meets Beau McMasters who recently won at a card game a saloon and a ranch in Heaven's Gate.
Beau and Abigail are attracted to one another and the locals encourage their relationship. As they fall in love, Abigail's past shows up and to her horror Beau is shot. Refusing to leave his side though that leaves her in peril, Abigail knows she owes Beau two truths: who she truly is and that she loves him.
This is a solid western romance that the audience will full enjoy due to the antics of the lead couple though it is the outsiders who bring the late suspense to the fine nineteenth century story line. LUCK OF THE DRAW is a fast-paced read though the climax seems off kilter as the chasers converge on Butler, which would seem more like a needle in a haystack. Still sub-genre fans will enjoy this fine tale as Beau tries to prove that he loves Abigail risking his life as his stake.
