Rustler Mountain

Tourists may flock to Rustler Mountain, Oregon for its Wild West reenactments, but for locals, the feuds between the outlaws and the lawmen are still very much alive in this new series from New York Times bestselling author Maisey Yates - ideal for fans of Lyla Sage, Elsie Silver, Jennifer Ryan and Robyn Carr.

Every year, thousands of people come through Rustler for the rodeo, historic home tours, old-fashioned candy making demonstrations, sharpshooter shows—and to see the site of the 1800s shootout in which notorious outlaw Austin Wilder was killed by Sheriff Lee Talbot. Now Millie Talbot, the sheriff’s descendant, wants to bring back the town’s Gold Rush Days. But she needs the current Austin Wilder’s support to make her dream a reality. . .

The Wilders are rumored to be as true to their last name as their ancestors. Nonetheless, Austin is agreeable to helping Millie. But he wants something in return. Austin is working to clear his family name by writing the true history of his outlaw ancestors and Millie might just hold the key.

When Millie wrangles Austin into helping plan Gold Rush Days, he figures it’s a chance to get to the truth of the past. . . . But when sparks start to fly between this bad boy and good girl, will either of them come out of it unscathed?

In “Rustler Mountain” the story focuses on small town lawmen descendant & librarian Millie Talbot, and outlaw descendant & rancher Austin Wilder. This story is a dual POV and goes between Austin and Millie’s thoughts and every day going ons. The story makes me think of “The Hatfield & McCoys” with their western style generational blood feud meets “Romeo and Juliet” where a man and a woman fall in love even though their families are sworn enemies. The main characters arcs are a huge part of the storyline and I believe anyone who reads this book will be rooting them on all the way through. I found this tale to be delightful and the ending….oh it was worth every page and genuinely made me shed a few tears. #GoodreadsGiveaway
