Witemeyer (If the Boot Fits) breathes new life into traditional European fairy tales as she explores the wildness and wonder of the Old West in her “Texas After Ever” series. Letty Hood has total freedom to ride and explore, and even tame a wolf, as long as no one else besides her beloved grandmother sees her face. She must maintain this reclusive lifestyle until she turns 21 and can claim her own inheritance rather than ceding control of the family business empire to her scheming uncle. Meanwhile, Philip Carmichael is growing weary of the deception required for his detective job with the Pinkertons, but one last case to find the missing Radcliffe heiress piques his interest and takes him across Texas along the rail line.
VERDICT Each book in this series can be read as a stand-alone and will keep readers guessing at how beloved fairy tales might play out in the turbulent Texas of the 1880s. For fans of Western romances from authors such as Regina Jennings and Robin Lee Hatcher.
