Blaze of Glory is
set in 2807. The Earth is not how we know it today. Catastrophic events have
left the planet a very different place. It is now a place where people ride
steel steeds, pack law trumps human laws, Special Marshalls hunt paranormal
beings and women are always owned by either their father or their spouse.
Molly ran from the town she grew up in. She ran from a man
who harmed her. In running she also ran from the one man she ever loved. It has
been years since she ran and she is no longer that scared girl. She is now a hellcat
of a Special Marshall. She wears a badge, totes a gun and doesn’t let anyone
harm her. She has grown in to one tough woman. She’s a tough woman who won’t
let a man make her decisions for her.
Jonathan gets the best news and the worst news of his life
all in one sentence. Molly has returned home to marry. The problem is her
father has not married her off to him. Molly’s father has married her off to
the man who harmed her and thus ran her off. Jonathan only sees one solution,
go get his woman. He’s not going to let either of her two fiancées stand in his
way.
This novella is full of action, a futuristic twist on the
old west complete with cowboys and shifters. Roth has introduced her readers to
an entire family of hot shifter men to keep the series going and a Special
Marshall sidekick in the form of Cole to keep you salivating for the next book.
I enjoyed the futuristic twist on the old west. I have every intention of
continuing reading this series.
My only dislike is the complete personality change that
Molly did. She starts out fighting tough, foul mouthed, ass kicking law
enforcement official who makes her own rules consequences be damned. When the
readers are given the final climatic fight scene where the man her father
betrothed her to comes to collect her, she just hangs back on the front porch
in a dress and lets Jonathan and Cole handle the majority of the situation.
Wowsers. That cover will stop a girl in her tracks!
