This is the third book in this series, so Sawbones and Blood Oath should be read first. I really enjoyed this series and of course, Badlands did not disappoint me. I love how the author uses such strong women in her books. This book was so full of action, deceit, grief, love, anger and strength. 

Laura is continuing to run from the law and has met some new people. Not all of them are nice.  She is a determined woman who will do what it takes to be with the love of her life. While in this book, William gets caught and goes before the Army to see if he will be killed.  Laura is sort of kidnapped by Rosemond. Rosemond is a great manipulator and has Laura falling for all her lies. As Laura continues to live and work in a medical surrounding, she is being blackmailed by the local physician. Then you meet Henry Pope, who went to New York and wrote his first novel, Sawbones. (I love how Melissa used her own books in her story line.) Henry has sent word to William Kindle about helping clear Laura of the murder charges so she can return to New York.

 I can't say enough about how well this story and series were weaved. This book gets five star rating from me.

Melissa Lenhardt is the author the Jack McBride mystery series, as well as the Laura Elliston historical fiction series. Her debut mystery, STILLWATER, was a finalist for the 2014 Whidbey Writers’ MFA Alumni Emerging Writers Contest, and SAWBONES, her historical fiction debut, was hailed as a "thoroughly original, smart and satisfying hybrid, perhaps a new subgenre: the feminist Western" by Lone Star Literary Life. A lifelong Texan, she lives in the Dallas area with her husband and two sons.
