Etta Foster grew up in Maine and has studied Conservation Biology at Boston University.
Her studies and adventurous spirit led her to meet the love of her life in Lovelock, Nevada. She currently lives there with her rancher husband and their two teen daughters. She delights in writing about women who came also a century before her to find love in the West.
She got her first idea of a story while taking care of the horses with her loving husband. He was the one to push her not only in the actual riding but in the exciting ride of writing as well.
Except writing, she enjoys making wooden handicraft artifacts with the help of her two daughters who by the way, exceed her. Right now her daughters are teaching her how to connect with her readers!
1. A Sheriff to Harness Her Heart. Regina Maythorpe is tired of Philadelphia. She is especially tired of her parents not really acknowledging the woman she has grown into. Then, her mother especially, tries to force her into marriage to one of her father's business partners, who is old enough to be her father! So she takes matters into her own hands and answers a Matrimonial News ad from Ethan Martell. However, she is deserted by him, after he takes everything she owns in San Miguel, New Mexico. Thankfully Sheriff Xavier Martinez is a kind, albeit strong man who at least listens to her! Will he be able to help her get her things back? **I just wished the extended epilogue matched their story. Instead it was about Alexandra and Caleb on the Turner Ranch! 🤔 2.

However, things happen 😊 Mary's mistress Miss Beatrice Pennington has been secretly writing love letters for over three years! Only now, at just 17 she's been caught off guard!

Mary is so confused the next thing she knows she is on a train! What happens to Mary? How does she meet Emmanuel? What adventures do they share? Where do they end up?
Rising Loved and Setting Suns: A Historical Western
I enjoyed both of these stories, but unfortunately I was not able to connect to the site for the extended epilogue ( not a safe connection). Because of this I felt that the books were unfinished.
As always another beautiful historical Western romance by Etta Foster. Lovely, strong characters, lots of trials and tribulations, love, humor and joy. A must read.
