Super cute. Super steamy. Need I say more? This was a perfect romance with an amazing plot. These kinds of books are hard to come by. It was paced perfectly and left me wanting more.

Shanna Johnston is returning home after visiting her mother when a huge explosion careens the train off its tracks. Shanna doesn't know what happened but when she wakes up in the arms of a handsome man, her nightmare is just beginning. He aims a gun in her face and keeps calling her a different name. He swears he knows her and is going to bring her crimes to justice. She tries to explain to him but to no avail. It turns out he's a US Marshall sent to her town to bring a gang to justice. The more time she spends with him, the greater her feelings grow. Can she prove to him she's not the criminal he purports her to be and make him fall in love with her and not the other woman he seems obsessed with or is he speaking the truth about her mysterious past?

A Fallacious Seduction is a fantastic historical western romance I couldn't put down. From the very beginning, I connected with Shanna. She appears to be fragile but has incredible strength and resilience upon closer inspection. She's had to deal with heartbreak and humiliation but continues to hold her head up. Virginia Barlow writes with honesty and shares what life was life for many women on the frontier. The descriptive narration paints a raw picture of the wild west which swept me away. The plot moves at a good pace with plenty of conflicts, misunderstandings and colorful characters. There's a lot going on in this story but at the heart of it is Shanna and Reese. The romance between these two is classic enemies-to-lovers but with a fun western twist. I thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the ending. If you're looking for a feisty heroine in the wild west frontier, pick up A Fallacious Seduction. Fans of Cynthia Wright will love this tale. Highly recommend!
