About:
Dr. Josephine Burkett is used to men taking one look at her skirts and discounting her medical skills. What she's not used to is having a man change his mind in a heartbeat and offer to assist her in surgery. Matthew Hanger's dedication to his friend during recovery earns Josephine's respect, and when she hears of her brother's abduction, he becomes her only hope for rescue.
Matt has stared down ruthless outlaws, betrayal, and injury, but when a bossy lady doctor crawls under his skin, his heart is tempted to surrender. And when she is caught in the crossfire, he may have to sacrifice everything--even his team--to save her.

My Review:
At first I was a bit skeptical. The beginning didn't capture my attention and I was curious as to how the rest would play out, though I needn't have worried. Once Hanger's Horsemen set out on their adventure, I was hooked.
Matt is serious and not easily moved. Josie is lively and determined- and also not easily moved. They clash a lot, and it was really interesting to watch (so to speak) and see whose will would win out. It also made for an interesting romance, since as a former cavalry officer, Matt isn't accustomed to his word being stood up against.
Josie's brother is in danger, and a smitten Matt will do anything to help her. I love any story with sibling themes, and Josie's determination to save Charlie- in more ways than one- is very relatable to me.
All of the characters are very unique separately, and unstoppable together. I love the Horsemen's brotherhood, and can't wait to see what the rest of the series will bring!
