Description
Shane McCall has dedicated his life to rising above the smear his father put on his last name. As sheriff of Marietta, Montana, his reputation is finally above reproach and he aims to keep it that way. A difficult task made impossible since he made the mistake of kissing Silver Adams. Courting a saloon owner is not Shane’s idea of respectability, but when his brother comes to town and turns her head, Shane realizes the only arms Silver belongs in are his.
Silver Adams has stared down many challenges, but when she moves to Montana, she finally has independence and a sense of pride. With her close circle of friends and a successful saloon, the only thing missing from her life is love. When Silver finds everything she has been looking for in the arms of an upstanding lawman, she feels her dreams have come true until her disreputable past threatens all Silver holds dear, and now Silver must make the hardest decision of her life—telling Shane the truth.

Another good book in the series. I was hoping for Shane and Silver to get together, and this is their story. May have had more hopes for more, but thought their romance was a little sluggish at times. I liked the story, but the others in the series were better. Still, I highly recommend this book and author and series. Hoping Shane's brothers get romances now too.
I received an advance reader copy in exchange for a fair review. Enjoyed the book. It is well written and the developing love story between Silver and Shane is full of ups and downs as Shane battles with his desire for Silver but can't quite give in to it simply because she owns a saloon. Love finally wins out but a lot happens in a short period of time. It is a great western and I would recommend it.
The angst some go through, and mostly unnecessarily so, is brought to life in this story of Shane and Silver. Great storyline and great characters. Look forward to reading more books by this author!
This is a nice western romance with some characters who fit the stock image of a western town. There is the sheriff who is worried about looking respectable and the saloon owner who is treated as not respectable because she owns a saloon. That is the main cause of the tension between the two main characters. Enjoyable but not that different.
There’s a reason why it’s called “the past”. The events that once happened, the choices made, the decisions acted upon are not who we are today. Yet that past can harm the present and threaten the future.
Silver has a life that she’s quite proud of now in Montana. She has her saloon, a close knit group of people she can call friends and an interesting man to see what the future might hold in store for them both. Until the past that she’d believed she had left far behind comes back with the intention of destroying all she now holds dear. Can the love that is growing between Silver and Shane survive the truth that Silver must tell him about?
Shane and Silver’s story is going to be an emotional ride. They both have things in their pasts that they’d rather keep hidden, forgotten and ignored. Yet that’s not always possible. I enjoyed A Sheriff’s Passion very much. I believe this series is best read in order for it builds somewhat on the people and friendships we’ve met before. Besides, they’re great stories.
*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley. That does not change what I think of this story. It is my choice to leave a review giving my personal opinion about this book.*
A Sheriff's Passion by Michelle Beattie is book three in a series that just keeps getting better as it goes along. This book definitely had me remembering Gunsmoke from my childhood with Matt Dillon and Miss Kitty. Michelle Beattie verses has more of the conflicted community over the relationship developing between Silver Adams and Shane McCall
Besides the community drama that has become part of this Historic Marietta series there, the past is catching up to Silver in her present life. It makes for an emotional read that is as moving as it is well-written.
The reader is returned to Marietta, Montana of the 1800's with sheriff Shane and Saloon owner , Silver. Enjoyed the scenery and tale while revisiting Marietta of old. Looking forward to the next book.
Ebook from Netgalley and publishers with thanks. Opinions are entirely my own.
