Captain George Roth is definitely a man wearing too many masks and there were times I positively disliked him, though, he had a habit of turning right around and disarming me with his kindness just as he does to Eva. I genuinely liked Eva, though she can be a bit stubbornly naive at times.
Love In Lead is a nice addition to Kari Trumbo's historical-romance-with-a-little-western Seven Brides Of South Dakota series and I enjoyed the story. I can't wait to find out what's in store for the Arnsby sisters in the next books.
As with the previous books I listened to Love In Lead in audiobook format. And, like the others I found the sound quality and the production in general to be excellent. The narrator is very good, though she has a persistent habit of mispronouncing a very few words such as 'hearth'. At any rate, Kari Trumbo's novel was in good hands with this production and it was an enjoyable listen.
Tell Tale Book Reviews gives Love In Lead by Kari Trumbo a 4 Bark rating.
