Woman of Sunlight

Mary Coneally is known for her books with romantic cowboys playing the lead role.  Mitch Warden is playing that lead in the second novel on Hope Mountain.

Ilsa is often described throughout the book as being feral, because of her lack of being around others while she was growing up.  She is extremely able to defend and take care of herself, as well as the people around her.

The one time she goes to town, she is found in a compromising position with Mitch and finds herself married to him before she really knows what happens.

The basic plot to the story is finding out who is after Mitch and why that person wants him dead.  After fending off several hired guns, Mitch and Ilsa find themselves in Chicago to bring the hunt to an end.

There isn't much in the way of humorous events in this novel which is a departure from Mary's normal mode of writing, but that doesn't detract from the enjoy-ability of the novel.  There is enough intrigue to keep the reader involved with the book until the very end.   This is a solid four star book.
