‘Just in Time Cowboy’
by Jillie Rivers
Kelsey Winters a mining engineer in present day Mule Stop, Wyoming gets
struck by lightning and is thrust back in time to 1892 to the old days of Mule
Stop. She’s landed right smack in the
middle of the prairie and into the hands of Pete Jackson. They spat, fight and try to avoid the inevitable
in every romance, the big four letter word Love. Now Kelsey doesn’t just take to this time
travel stuff, she’s a strong willed modern day woman and has a hard time believing
and adjusting to her present where a bouts and situation.
Peter Jackson the son of a prominent New York banker is in Wyoming just
being free and doing what He wants to do.
This is the deal he made with his father before he returns to New York
and picks up his position in the family bank.
When a beautiful woman pretty much drops out of a thunderstorm, his life
takes a whole different turn.
This all in all is a good book and it gets better the more you read
it. I ended up liking the characters but
not so much at first. The heroine at
first to me just isn’t taking her situation as serious as you would think
finding herself back in time by one hundred and twenty years. The hero, well he was followed by a bad
reputation as a ladies’ man, but I just thought he was a jerk. But the story line is really good and the
more I read the more I began to like the characters and the story line just
kept getting deeper and deeper.
I did have a problem with the Indian tribe in the story. I really don’t think Indians back in 1892
especially those not on a reservation would have been able to read and speak a
fluent English but this one did. The
whole story is based on an old Indian prophecy that has been told down through
the generations of the Indian tribe where they are awaiting ‘The Wise One’.
