A Long the Way - Janet Hovis

“Strong and Stubborn” is the last book in this series and, I believe, is the best of the three.  This whole series has been a clever twist on the mail order brides genre.  This time is it mail order husbands and this is what makes it great fun to read. 
 
“Strong and Stubborn” is a Western, a romance and an altogether enjoyable read.  I am sorry to see this series end however I do look forward to more from this very talented writer.
