Our hero is Ben Madison, who is the newly elected sheriff of Frost Falls, Colorado. Taking place in 1898, Ben is the most easy-going, never-to-get-riled hero I've read.

Kini’s Friday Kisses
Welcome to another week of Kini’s Friday Kisses. This week was filled with half completed reads. I started Binding Law by Micah Persell recently. The main set up is that a woman hires a gigolo and then they end up in a fake relationship. These are all things that I love.
