I felt like I skimmed the story, even though I didn't. But... it's free, so who's complaining?

I felt the same away about Kathleen Brook's Bluegrass and Bluegrass Brothers series... like I was skimming along on a story. And those had NO smexy in them...almost entirely behind closed doors. And THEY weren't free
Alot of Modern Westerns I find are like that. Harlequins are notorious for modern westerns like that. For some reason I find I do like them if the plot is good enough. They are quick and easy reads and I go into them knowing that there wont be much characterization.

If you're looking for deep character development try Lori Wilde's Jubilee series. Most Overdrive Libraries have them. I've only read the first book but gave it 5 stars. It wrung me out. I went into expecting it to be a funny sexy story and the first chapter follows that formula then it gets you right in the heart for the rest of the pages. The woman can write!
