Amazon Description:
Falling for someone who doesn’t want to get married is soon to be the least of his concerns.
While his brothers and their new wives search for who shot him, Wyatt Hunt is temporarily bedridden and completely miserable. Somehow Molly Garner’s limited skills have made her the most qualified in their circle to care for Wyatt. But by the time he’s healed, she’s fed up with him and the whole ungrateful family. For even worse than his grumpiness were the few unguarded moments when he pulled at her heartstrings, and she has been long determined to never repeat her mother’s mistakes.
When alternate plans of finding her own independent life fall through, Molly volunteers to work for the Pinkertons and help investigate nearby ranch owner Oliver Hawkins. She signs on to be his housekeeper, hoping to find clues to prove his nefarious, and possibly murderous, past. Wyatt refuses to let her risk it alone and offers to act as Hawkins’s new foreman.
But when another Pinkerton agent gets shot, they realize Hawkins isn’t the only danger. The Hunt brothers will have to band together to face all the troubles of life and love that suddenly surround them.

Thanks to Mary Connealy for sending me a copy of Love on the Range and including me on your launch team!
The third brother’s story has finally been told! Of all three books in the Brothers in Arms series, I think Love on the Range might have been my favorite. It is a satisfying ending to the story of the Hunt brothers, who are brought together when their father passes away and reveals that he had multiple families. While you could probably read Love on the Range as a stand-alone novel, I think it is more enjoyable as part of the series since there is so much backstory that you get by reading it that way.
This book has themes of found family, honoring dishonorable parents, and forgiveness. There were several twists that I was not at all expecting. It’s a pretty fast read (I read it in just over 24 hours) and it’s full of action, humor, and sweet romance. Two thumbs up!
