Her stories are always interesting, clean, with an element of Christian faith in each story. Susan Page Davis is possibly the most consistent author I've read: I can always count on a good story. Most of her early, out of print books are now available for Kindle, which makes me very happy.


Ladies' Shooting Club SERIES

The Sheriff's Surrender

Historical fiction author Davis churns out another folksy, lighthearted story set in 1885 about a not-so-feminine heroine who shoots better than most men. Gert Dooley has spent years caring for her widowed brother, Hiram, who is Fergus, Idaho's, only gunsmith, and that position strategically places her to practice shooting all types of firearms. Second to none, Gert sets up a women's shooting club after a killer comes to town, and while the womenfolk are eager to learn from Gert's experienced hands, the men in town balk. As Gert trains her friends to protect themselves, she finds herself strangely attracted to the new sheriff, Ethan Chapman. Slowly the two begin a dance, and who knows which one will fire the first shot of romance. Davis's evenly paced tale, kicking off a new series.
