Lawfully Wanted: Inspirational Christian Historical (The Lawkeepers Historical Romance Book 2) Kindle Edition

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 146 ratings

Levi Emerson and his partner, Clyde Forester, have been undercover for over a year chasing the ring leader of the largest cattle rustling group.


After months of pursuit, they are closing in on their target, and looking forward to bagging their bounty. A paid informant has told them the rustler's next target will be the Larsen Ranch in Rockwood Springs, Texas. When Levi arrives at the ranch, he poses as a cowboy in order to gain employment at the ranch and catch the cattle thief.

Abigail Larsen is the daughter of one of the largest cattle barons in all of Taylor, County Texas. She has just returned home from finishing school, with what is considered by society, dangerous ideas that she gained from secret women's suffrage meetings. Her father has plans for her to marry Andy Wilson, a local rancher and recent widower, in an attempt to expand the family's influence in the region. Though she wants to do her father's biding, the rumors of how Andy mistreated his first wife leaves Abigail worried about her future, especially knowing he isn't the type of man that would find her new mindset appealing.

When Levi and Abigail accidently encounter each other, the connection is instant, but they both know a relationship between them can never be due to their circumstances. Yet, as the couple continue to spend time together through various circumstances, the connection only deepens.

Will Levi catch his wanted thief and collect his bounty? Will he tell Abigail the truth about who he is? And will Abigail choose to go against her father in order to be with the man she wants?

    I enjoyed this story that is part of a new series, A Texas Lawkeeper Romance, by a group of talented authors. Each story in the series will read as a stand-alone and can be read in any order. The stories will all feature law enforcement heroes and the women who love them. The stories are sweet, clean based stories where the lawman finds his woman. Each will read as a stand-alone book.

    Levi Emerson, along with Clyde Forrester, were partners and bounty hunters searching to capture a high stakes bounty. Morris Jeffers and a group of men who traveled with him, are rustling cattle and has a group of ranchers offering rewards. The plan was for Clyde to work as a barkeep in the saloon and Levi to be hired on one of the biggest ranches, to try and uncover who inside was working with Jeffers.

    Abigail Larsen has been in Boston for the past three years, since the death of her mother, at a ladies finishing school. Her father has called her home, and she will learn that he has big plans for her, a contract arranged marriage to the neighboring rancher, Andy Wilson. It is a man she loathes and has heard nasty rumors about the untimely death of his wife, plus he has a nasty and violent temper.

    The plot will have Levi being hired at the Larsen ranch as a cowhand to try and determine who is the inside man with Jeffers. What he wasn’t expecting was a friendship with Abigail Larsen. Together, they both discover each is a Christian and loves the Lord, something that his partner and her family have nothing to do with. It will become a tie that binds their friendship.

    Abigail has become a pawn for her father to increase his holdings by forcing her into a marriage she doesn’t want. He is a cruel man who has no respect for his own daughter, her feelings, or wishes. Abigail wants a marriage with a man who will respect her, respect her opinion and also a Godly man who loves and serves the Lord.

    “I’m sorry your father doesn’t see you for who you are. A magnificently strong and insightful woman, equal to any man, and the most wonderful person I’ve ever met.”

    An injury with a bull will have Levi incapacitated for several days, and housed in the Emerson household, against Bradford Larsen’s wishes. It will give Abigail and Levi more time to talk and share the Bible and their love for God. They will attend church together, and he will become acquainted with her friends. One the cattle drive, he will discover the traitor, but not before a good man is killed. When the truth comes out, he will be shunned from the Larsen ranch, but what Abigail? Can she forgive him for not telling her that he is a bounty hunter?

    What will happen when Abigail overhears a conversation that implicates more people in the cattle rustling? Will her father believe her or is he so blind to the truth? When she takes Billy’s orphaned daughter to town, how will she make way for the two of them?

    The story shows that God always has a plan and makes way for his children. Bad things can happen to good people, but Christianity is about faith and trust. In the end, two people find a chance for happiness. This is a clean historical western with strong Christian principles without being preachy.

    What a great story by Jenna Brandt which is part of the Lawkeepers series. Abigail Larsen has just returned home to her father's ranch after completing finishing school. Unfortunately her father has planned for her to marry Andy, a local rancher and recent widower, rumored to have a bad temper and possibly responsible for his wife's death.. Levi Emerson has come to town chasing some outlaws who have been rustling cattle. But he is undercover and is employed at her ranch by Abigail's father. As fate would have it, Abigail and Levi run into other other on her ranch and begin to have a strong attraction. Can the two find love together once his true identity comes out? A lovely story of overcoming barriers and finding love when least expected.

    This was a charming love story. I loved the development of the characters. Levi had become a Christian and he lived out his faith. I loved how he showed the love of Christ in the way he lived. Abigail was a strong independent woman that came home to an arranged marriage to a abusive man. I loved her determination to follow God's will for her life. She tried so hard to respect her father, but it was hard when her father does not have a relationship with Christ. I enjoyed the progression of the story. The action kept me reading; I couldn't put it down. I recommend this to anyone that loves sweet romance with elements of faith.

    I received this as an ARC and this is an honest review. Levi is an undercover bounty hunter hunting a gang of cattle rustlers. He gets a job on the Larson Ranch (an informer revealed that as the next place to be rustled). Abigale is the daughter of the owner of the Larson Ranch and is to be married to a neighbor (her father arranged the marriage) that she doesn't love and is afraid he'll be abusive, because of rumors about his late wife.
    She and Levi accidentally meet and sparks fly, although both know they have no chance of ever being together. Read this and find out if Levi gets the rustlers, does Abigail marry a man she can't stand - just to please her father? There are plenty of surprises, twists, and turns.
    You'll have trouble putting the it down until you've finished the last page.

    The characters in the story seemed real enough. The plot was good and the ending traditional. A girl comes back from finishing school home to find out her father has arranged her marriage. A new man and a ranch excites her and of course they fall in love.

    This was my favorite of the Lawkeeper books. Abigail is not your usual young lady. While away at finishing school she grew intellectually in ways that weren’t popular. Her father is a very influential rancher and believes that Abigail should marry a neighboring rancher to further both their ranch’s. Unfortunately for them, Abigail doesn’t agree.
    Levi is an undercover bounty hunter trying to solve a cattle rustling case. He poses as a cowboy on Abigail’s father’s ranch.
    Together they find a path to solve the case and find love along the way.
