Publisher's summary

Texas Badlands, 1886: Fresh out of medical school, John McCutcheon finds his stagecoach under attack by brutal outlaws. With the help of a feisty acquaintance Lily Anthony, he manages to fend off the assault. Lily is attracted to the charming cowboy-doctor, with his chiseled good looks and teasing ways, then heartbroken to learn he's engaged to be married.

Once settled in Rio Wells, Texas, John tries to ignore the fact that his cousin has taken a shine to Lily. When a bounty hunter shows up looking for a priceless jewel that Lily has found stashed away in her aunt's belongings, Lily fears her dreams of owning her own shop - and of finding true love - are about to go up in flames...or, could that just be the glow of a beautiful...Texas Twilight?

THE DIFFERENCES IN MONTANA AND TEXAS

The second book in the McCutcheon Family saga and what a page turner with mystery, suspense, danger, angst, fear, determination, family and friends. While this is an ongoing series or saga, it will read well as a stand-alone story. The story will include Dr. John McCutcheon, the youngest son of the Montana bunch and how he will go to Rio Wells, Texas near his Texas kinfolks. It will also have plenty of his baby sister, Charity, who will also come to Texas for a surprise visit. The story will take the reader on an adventure of life in Texas for a doctor, a school teacher, and the dangers of Comancheros.

Dr. John McCutcheon has finished medical school in Boston, and because there already being two doctors near his family in Y Knot, Montana, he will apply and be accepted for the position for the town of Rio Wells, Texas. He has been told when he arrives that he will be taking over for the retiring doctor, have a residence in the upstairs portion of the building and his medical practice downstairs. Everything is supposed to be painted, clean, and ready for his arrival.

Traveling from Boston to Texas is a long and dirty journey. The stagecoach will have three men and three women as paying passengers, plus three employees. Just before getting to their destination, they will be attacked by Comancheros, and when it is over, two men and one female passenger, plus two male guards will be dead. John will sustain a deep facial cut, and one female passenger, Harriet, will be unconscience.

The story will have John and passenger, Lily becoming friends during the arduous journey, and then she will be the one who helps sew the sixteen stitches in his face. Being a seamstress gives her an advantage for making even and neat stitches.

The plot is full of mystery that will revolve around the stagecoach murders, a missing gem, overzealous fiancé, a sister, Charity, who does her own thing, her suitor from Y-Knot, Sheriff Brandon Crawford, and the Texas McCutcheon line.

Arriving in Rio Wells will come with shock and disappointment for several people. It seems the town has misrepresented itself about the doctor’s position and building. For Harriet and Lily, the money paid for a year’s lease on the shop falls through, and trouble is brewing in town. When a mean bounty hunter shows up, things get dicey for several people. This rather quiet and quaint town will have accidents and murders that have many people on edge.

The story has the good, the bad, and the ugly of people. What happened to the man that Harriet paid for the lease of the building and what will she and Lily do for income if they can’t have the shop they leased? What will come of Charity and Theodore who instead of going to Denver, come to Texas to see John and what will her parents and Brandon think? Will John and the elderly town doctor work together and what does this mean for his future?

There is also a budding romance that is developing between John and Lily, and yet, John is technically betrothed to Emeline, and she is waiting to hear from him about moving to Texas. Just when things start to get interesting between John and Lily, Emeline shows up in Texas unannounced. He has no place that is his own, and when things became questionable in town, both Emeline and Charity will need to move to the ranch of his Uncle, Winston McCutcheon. Life has a way of working things out and learning that not everything is always black and white. Friendship will be formed; new romance will be in the works, understandings between longtime friends will be tested, tried, and found strong. The story has many intense and emotional scenes, some heartbreak, and enlightening moments.

NOTE: My husband and I listened to this book during a trip and we both enjoyed the story. The overall story by Ms. Caroline Fyffe and the narration by Grant Bolton. We are already discussing the next books in the series.

Exciting, thrilling and scary all at once...

I received this audio book as a gift in exchange for a honest and unbiased review. This is a awesome book! This is book 2 of the McCutcheon Family saga. It is classified as a Western, but it is a romance, and a suspense too! This story is so exciting! With main characters such as Lilly and John McCutcheon, along with other supporting characters such as Brandon, Dustin, Charity, the old Doc and Lilly's Aunt too. I loved the voice the narrator used for Lilly's Aunt. The story takes place in the late 1880s. The old West was such a dangerous place and difficult to make ends meet too. You have to admire the people making it back then.

The author, Caroline Fyffe once again outdid herself on this story. This story is well written and had me on the edge of my seat at times and it even made me cry! I could spend hours and hours listening to books like this. I have so much admiration for authors of this era. The narrator, Grant Bolton did a wonderful job delivering this story to us. I loved listening to his smooth voice and the accents were perfect! His voice is very easy on the ears and He sounded like a cowboy himself! Great job, both of you! BTW... I love how the epilogue is still in character!

Pick another reader.

Great book-terrible reading. Could not read in character.
The reader stumbled and was not manly as I imagine the men were in this story.

John Jake McCutcheon's story.

I really enjoyed listening to this story. The narrator used different voices for each character and it made it easier to tell who was speaking. John Jake McCutcheon has just graduated from medical school and is on his way to begin his career in Rio Wells, Texas, near his Uncle Winston McCutcheon's ranch. John's stage is attacked by Comancheros and he was cut on his face, making a dramatic beginning. When John meets his cousin Dustin there is a tenseness and you know there will be trouble between them. For those that look forward to each book, following the McCutcheon family, you will thoroughly enjoy this story. John's sister, Charity makes an unexpected visit and Brandon follows her, adding to the drama.

Good book

This book flowed well from the first in the series and just seemed to pick up where the other left off. The characters are easy to like and follow. The Christian faith is noted throughout the book and just as the first there is no explicit material. The attraction the characters have for each other is evident without going to far.
