About the Book
Texas, 1874. Years ago, Will McMillan
had fought in the open, next to his Captain, Clayton Proffitt. Now,
in book 2 of The Heart of a Hero series, he’s waging another war.
But when a hostage situation goes awry
and an innocent woman is in the middle of the fray, Will knows he must
protect her no matter what happens. Even if they risk being killed by
his gang or by the lawmen on their trail. Even if the woman he’s
risking everything for will never love him back. Even if all he's left
with is his faith.
My Thoughts
A Texan's Honor, the second installment of The Heart of a Hero series, was just as good as I expected! The author gives readers quite the intro with a train robbery, murder, and hostages, and it continues to get better from there. Regardless of the fact that Will is part of the gang that held up the train, Jamilyn feels a connection to him and trusts him to help her. She knows it's a huge risk to believe in Will but feels she has no other option.
Shelley Gray delivers a wonderful book, and I loved the mix of romance and action. At times, I couldn't quite figure out where the story was going, but each time, the author filled in the gaps and brought everything together. She also wove together two stories—those of Will and Jamilyn and of Scout Proffitt. After getting to know Scout a bit, I'm hoping he will be featured in the next book in the series (and that we'll get to connect with Clayton again too!). Historical romance fans will be thrilled with A Texan's Honor! [# stars]
