A Taste of Fire

By: Hannah Howell

Narrated by: Dana Vannis

Antonie Ramirez could ride and shoot as well as any man - and better than most. Now, the headstrong beauty had come to Texas to honor her father's last words: Find the cattle rancher named Royal Bancroft and repay him for saving their lives long ago.

Royal Bancroft didn't know who was behind the outlaws trying to drive him off his land, but he would fight to the death rather than lose it. Yet with his sister and brother kidnapped, he felt defeat run through him like a chill wind...until a girl with cornsilk hair and a steady gunhand rode into his life.

Antonie was wild, hard, and hurting inside, and Royal knew from the moment he saw her, that if he tried to tame her, he'd break her spirit. Instead, he would let her ride with him as an equal partner and fight beside him for a future together....

Contains mature themes.

Romantic Western

Although a predictable romance, the story has interest holding happenings that make it thoroughly enjoyable. Ms. Howell writes a good story paired with a good narrator. I’m going to look for more of her westerns. I wish there was an audible book for Compromised Hearts another of Ms. Howell’ s westerns.
