Marshal Dan Hummer deputizes Sheriff Cliff Ryan into the US Marshals. Accompanied by Ben Taylor, they set off to the Mile High City in search of Bodecker and find themselves caught up in the city's gilded elite and its notorious demimonde. Ben's passionate encounter with the beautiful and enigmatic Raina Montgomery will be a revelation. And in Cheyenne, for Luke and Emmaline, the arrival of two utterly unexpected visitors changes everything - forever.

About the author
Terri Sedmak
9 books3 followersSince age 11, Terri was certain of two things: one, she wanted to be a writer; and two, she was intensely interested in American history. She have since combined these two passions to create The Liberty & Property Legends series, a saga which she describes as a grand and romantic adventure of The West and Gilded Age America, and which will span six volumes.
Her novels include the first five volumes of the series: HEARTLAND On the Side of Angels (2009), EMPIRE FOR LIBERTY Dangerous Lullaby (2011), FIRST COUNTRY Tinged with Rose (2013), THE HOUR OF EVIDENCE Deceived (2015), A PLACE AMONG HEROES, Book 1: Rise of Hope and A PLACE AMONG HEROES, Book 2: Return of Hope.
Broad travels across the US have allowed her to research in the locations where the novels are set and to walk in the footsteps of her characters. In 2011, she became a member of Women Writing the West.
Terri is also a musician and a songwriter, and the mum of three beautiful human beings. She lives with her husband in Sydney, Australia, where she is always enthusiastically working on the next book in the series and other writing projects.

I received the entire trilogy from the author through Goodreads.
---
I would give this book 4 stars.
...and the hunt for Bodecker is on! The thrill of the hunt was certainly exciting, although maybe it was a bit too easy how Hammer and Ryan were able to track Bodecker down rather quickly.
In Book 3, a lot of lose ends were tied up, nicely and neatly.
The ending is rather sweet and a bit unexpected.
I would have loved to read about the trial of the mavericks and Bodecker. And always more about Dermot, but that's alright.
