 Moving to Montana and More

 

My fourth book in the Hers to Redeem series has just published. As some of you have heard me say, this is myfavorite multiple-author series. I love the premise where something happens in the hero’s life thatcauses him to change and withdraw. However, the heroine comes along and makeshim reassess his decision to be a recluse.

 

        

         

Inman’s Impersonation is set in Montana, one of the most majestic states I’ve ever visited,and I’ve been to all fifty. With gorgeous scenery, an abundance of wildlife,and a wealth of natural minerals, it’s been called the “Treasure State. TheRocky Mountains and Yellowstone National Park are two features that draw manytourists each year. The state is also known as “Big Sky Country.” It is cowboy country with a beautiful backdrop.

After his invalid father dies inTennessee, Inman Lowe sells the farm and heads to Montana to find his olderbrother who left home five years earlier. When he finally finds him, Garvis is secretly mixed up with a group ofthieves. Two of the bank robbers are caught and falsely tell the sheriff thatInman is also involved. At his brother’s advice, he runs and ends up beingmistaken for the expected new sheriff in a small town. Being caught off guard,Inman goes along with the ruse, thinking it’s a good way to hide. He tries tobe reclusive, but when he starts to fall for the storekeeper’s daughter, thingsget complicated. Why did he have to meet the woman of his dreams when he wasliving a lie?

 

Whenever I’m writing a book in thisseries, it becomes my favorite, and Inman’s Impersonation was noexception. I fell in love with Inman and the stray dog he picks up along theway. The man has a good heart, but he makes a bad decision and pays dearly forit. Come along with Inman and experience his adventures as he travels fromTennessee to find his older brother and ends up in Meadowlark, Montana wherehis life takes even more unexpected turns. The book just released and isavailable on Kindle, KU, print, and audible.

 

Here is an excerpt:

As he did with most growing towns, Inmanskirted Missoula and headed north. About fifty miles out of Missoula, hedecided to stop at the next town he came to because he needed to restock.

Meadowlark looked promising. He likedthe neat town that had more businesses than he expected. He rode through to getthe lay of the town, tied his horses, and turned to walk around on foot.

“What do you think, Driff?” Inman lookedat his dog. “Do you think this might be a good place to settle?”

He didn’t intend to live in the saddleindefinitely. He wanted to find a place where he might fit in while he lay low.A town like this should have some kind of job he could do or at least at one ofthe surrounding ranches.

He decided to go to the general storefirst and see if he could gather any news. They would likely know of any jobsaround.

“Hey, stranger,” a well-dressed manstopped him. “You look like you might be the man we’ve been looking for.”

Inman raised his eyebrows, but he didn’tsay a word. He didn’t know what to say.

“We don’t get many strangers inMeadowlark, so I assume that you’re our new sheriff. I got a telegram, sayingthat you were on the way and should arrive today.”

The man put out his hand, and Inmanshook it. “I’m Phineas P. Bradbury, the mayor of Meadowlark.”

“Inman…” Inman faltered. He couldn’tgive the man his real name. He shouldn’t have even said Inman since an unusualfirst name would stand out.

The mayor looked pleased. “I know. InmanLane. Except the telegram gave your name as I. J. Lane. Welcome to Meadowlark,Mr. Lane. We’re so glad you’re here. We're desperately in need of a sheriff.Come on; let me show you around and help you settle in. The rooms in the backof the jail should fit your needs for now. Do you have baggage?”
