Review:Shadow's Stand by Sarah McCarty

4 STARS
I loved the story but too much sex scenes in it for me to be comfortable with.
Fei is part chinese part american.  Shadow is indian.  We first meet them at Shadow's hanging.  Fei fools everybody to thinking her father wants her to marry Shadow so rescues him and marrys him.
Fei has fooled a lot of people thinking her father was still strong and working with dynamite. Instead she has been dressing up and blowing things up.
Fei also has a gold mine discovers but she can't file a claim on it so she needs protecting.  She wants the gold to rescue her cousin that her father sold while he was not right in the head.
Shadow besides this hanging for horse theifing is wanted by the US army for killing a man in front of them. This man was rich with powerful friends who was trying to murder two women.  Shadow had a large bounty on his head.
Shadow stayed away from his brothers the Hell 8 to protect them. All 8 of them were Texas Rangers. He also wanted to help Fei but send her away to keep her safe.
It was a good story would be better without all the sex scenes in detail.  I would like to read more about the Hells 8 bunch. I was given this ebook to read in exchange for honest review from Netgalley.
