Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2020
This book is number three in a series by Dusty Richards and I gave it a 5-Star rating. Why did I give it a 5-Star rating? I did not want to put this book down. I like the characters and enjoy the different paths the hero goes down to right some wrong and yes there is the ever increasing size of the ranch. I am ready for
book 4.

2.0 out of 5 starsA big disappointment in a good series.
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2016
Dusty Richards is a new author for me and I like his books. I'm into western series and its hard to find a good western that isn't a romance novel pretending to be a western. This is a good series but the author phoned this one in. There should be another book before this one. This is book 3 that doesn't pick up where book 2 ended. A whole new set of characters, weddings, ranches, etc., start out in this book with no explanation. The main character, Chet, seems to be coming or going all the time. Mr. Richards writes with a simplistic vocabulary, IMO, that suits the era and environment. Why an author would leave fans hanging after 2 very good books is a puzzle to me. I will try the next book, but if it is no better than this one, I will stop there.

This book was especially enjoyable for me since I know well the area where it takes place. I liked, too, getting to know the characters better and meeting new ones. I’ll start Book 5 right away.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Series

I have read the first 4 books in this series on the Byrne's Family and just started book 5. There are 8 books so far. You will need to read them in series order to really enjoy them. Kindle has the books out of order so you will need to check Dusty Richards web site for the correct order. I really enjoy reading this series and hope he keeps on writing them. I highly recommend any avid western reader to give this series a try. You will not be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another winner in the Byrne's Family saga
Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2017

Chet Byrnes must surely enjoy trouble, or perhaps it just seeks him out. Whichever, he is always ready to take it on, with good results. Getting that badge proclaiming him to be a deputy U.S. Marshal seems to ease his burden in problem solving. With his numerous ranches thriving, it seems Chet and his bride may be able to settle in, but outsiders have other plans. A good read all around.

3.0 out of 5 stars but I was disappointed in the book
Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2018

I'm sure dusty Richards has a large following,but I was disappointed in the book.There were too many moving parts,namely wives ,cousins,husbands,girl friends,relatives.It was a choir just keeping up with them.Also there was no ending.it just quit.If the author is planning to continue the story,he should at least say what book is the continuation..

3.0 out of 5 stars Lots of good history
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2019

I like the characters. There is a lot of action, but there are also too many trivial parts of life included. The novel could also use a good proofreading. Darnell Clevenger, author of the western Luke Fuller: From Fugitive to Killer

5.0 out of 5 stars The excitement builds
Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2017

I have not been this excited about a series in a long time. I guess we all would like to have someone like Chet Byrnes in our family. Love the way he helps those not as fortunate to get a good start to make something of themselves. He also does not suffer fools. I can really relate to that as that has been said about me. Getting ready to start book #4.

Wow, can this guy write a Western story. I laugh, I giggle, snicker, sigh at his love scenes. In other words, I am really enjoying reading the Byrne's family stories. THANK YOU. I have always liked Zane Grey, but I . Must admit Dusty Richards is now my favorite western author
His is a true story teller.

5.0 out of 5 stars At it again!!
Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2014

Chet is again chasing rustlers. He never fails to offer up a prayer to help him out in his challenges. This time it is not a boy's
life taken but a good man! He sees that the man's death was not in vain and goes after the bad guy's again to see that Justice is served. Dusty writes a good western story! This was an Amazon purchase.
