Where's the Next One?
I nearly hyperventilated when I first saw this in the bookstore. I've been waiting for her latest book, and was surprised that it was already out. I grabbed it, not even bothering to read the back cover to see what it was about, because I knew I'd love it. I was not disappointed.
This is the sequel to Courting Trouble, which as not a predictable book, at all. This takes place a few years later, in 1899 Texas, and addresses the issue of lynching, among other things. There is a romance, of course , and a murder mystery. You learn about the oil industry of the time, and the change from horses to bicycles, to automobiles.
I'm glad this character, Essie, found such an exceptional man. I couldn't put it down. Now that it's done, I'm looking around for her next one. Well, where is it?
