ABOUT THE BOOK

May 1887--Flora Brimm is determined the fifth time is the charm. Back home she has a reputation as "Fatal Flora," a woman whose previous four fiancés died in untimely accidents. Flora is desperate to marry, because producing an heir is the only way she can keep her family's estate. She's confident this visit to Eureka Springs with her grandmother will help her land a husband.

Pinkerton detective Lucas McMinn is hot on the trail of Will Tucker, the thief who broke his sister's heart. When he discovers the slippery fellow with Flora, he thinks they are in on the devious plot together. Will Flora be able to convince Lucas of her innocence? Will Lucas catch the elusive Mr. Tucker?

And, more importantly, will Lucas survive if he pursues Flora's heart?

My Thoughts: I loved this book!! Ms. Y'barbo created very loveable characters.  Poor Flora struggling with the need to produce heir, and Lucas it was neat to see the adventures of these two through this book.  The Pinkerton detective is a neat piece of history I enjoyed that part of this book as well.  I am very glad that this book is the a series I look forward to reading the next book.  I give it 5 out of 5 stars.  A must read for a anyone looking for a fun book.
