First Norah Hess Book I've Read, But Not The Last
By L. Martin
This is the first Norah Hess book that I've read, so I'm not sure if this is her typical style. After reading The Devil in Spurs, I can say that I will definitely be finding out!
I have to admit that I picked up this book for a quarter at a local yard sale because the title struck a funny bone. Ok, so maybe that's not the best reason to pick up a book, but I figured for a quarter, I couldn't go wrong! I'm glad I did.
The Devil in Spurs is a western and has a somewhat typical plot for a western romance (cowboy romance). The characters are strong, well developed and most are interesting in their own right. Others are downright despicable which is exactly the emotion for which Hess was striving.
Jonty Rand is a woman disguised as a boy (something that she's had to do all her life to not be noticed by cowboys who visit the "bawdy house" in which she is raised. On her grandmother's deathbed, she asks Cord McBain to make sure Jonty is taken care of.
Cord McBain takes that promise seriously and brings Jonty along as he goes out west on a wagon train to set up the ranch of which he's always dreamed. He figures Jonty is a skinny teenaged boy who needs to be toughened up and doesn't let up on him at all during the wagon trip.
Jonty's secret is out when she's attacked by a mountain lion and her shirt it torn open. Cord at first feels duped and then realizes it's too late to do anything about it. And so begins the love story of Cord and Jonty...
This book would have been mediocre at best if not for the strong subplots and support cast. I wondered about LaTour the owner of a saloon, and who's relationship with Jonty gives Cord many sleepless nights and many days filled with jealousy. I found myself laughing at the antics of Tillie, the retired prostitute turned cook who keeps LaTour in line. I found myself grimacing whenever Paunch would enter the plot again - he was such a disgusting character that each time his name was mentioned my skin would crawl. Then there was Johnny the Indian who is always there to protect Jonty.
Even with the typical plot and outcome, there were a few surprises along the way, which kept my attention. There were a few subplots that I found difficult to believe, but those were few and far between.
Overall, this was enjoyable and whetted my interest enough to pick up another Norah Hess novel.

Ohhh Nooo, Not Again!!!
By A Customer
Norah Hess's characters are sometimes shallow and her plots weak, but there is one thing in her novels that annoys me to no end. That's when she names the heroine's horse (all together now)... BEAUTY!!!
Every freakin' horse can't be named Beauty. I was actually be getting into this book until it came to the scene concerning the horse. I found myself holding my breath, praying that she had given Jonty's horse a different name. I know this sounds pretty petty, but this repetitive equine name is driving me crazy.
Also, I find it hard to believe that Cord got on Jonty's case for being effiminate, yet he allowed Paunch (a solid gold pervert) continue to chase and harass a supposedly teenaged "male".

Entertaining
By Glenda Burrus
Ms Hess captures my attention in this book very well although I
think it took too long for Cord to find out Jonty was actually a woman. Although that revelation was finally revealed after a lenghthy amount of time, I still found myself attached to this book. I like the fact that the men in her books always has some kind of flavor...Not too good or too bad. As always the love scenes are hot and make you want to holler sometimes. Over all well done and I always look forward to buying her fabulous books.
