A Texan Choice The Heart of a Hero Book 3 (Audible Audio Edition) Shelley Gray Mia Gaskin Audible Studios Books
Scout is a fascinating character, but not nearly enough was done with him. Again, I appreciate the author's ability to make the world far more gritty than can be found in most Christian novels, without sacrificing that feeling of Hope that I, as a Christian reader, am looking for. That said, once again there was a great deal of build-up without much in the way of pay-off as far as the action side of the plot went. The whole big showdown just kinda fizzled out making everyone look like they were getting worked up over nothing. Additionally, while I appreciate that Scout's trying to take an active role in his redemption, he comes across as far too nice and peace-loving in the beginning of the book for this to have the intended weight, unless the author was to put a cruel twist at the end.Additionally, the author had some particularly annoying inconsistencies in this book. Rio changed from a black to a white horse, from a stallion, to a gelding, to a mare. Scout's gun clicked twice before he cocked the hammer, and then he holstered it twice in a row without unholstering it. Proofreading.
Complaints aside, I'm pretty sure I read this in a sitting and a half, so it's definitely not a bad read.

A Texan Choice The Heart of a Hero Book 3 (Audible Audio Edition) Shelley Gray Mia Gaskin Audible Studios Books Reviews
I would give this book 3.5 stars if I could because I liked it better than the first book but not as much as the second one in the series. I enjoyed seeing how Scout's life continued after book 2 and how the storyline was all tied together from the first book. However, I felt like there were too many "main" characters in this one to thoroughly tell any of their stories and finish them up by the end of the book. Unless there is another book coming in this series, it left too many loose ends. Since Russell was one of the main characters, it would have been nice to see if his trip home had a happy ending. Also, Miles was also a main character and his story ended so abruptly that it was unbelievable. There was a reference from Scout to Rosemarie at the end about how he had carried her over the threshold the day they were married but the author failed to put that scene in the book. I had to go back and read the part about their wedding to be sure but I couldn't find it anywhere. Also, the story about the rustlers came to a disappointing climax. After the buildup about the other ranchers being murdered, Miles being beaten almost to death by them and the need to bring in professionals to take care of them, there was no action or a suspenseful moment at all. It probably doesn't sound like it from this review, but I did enjoy the series overall and will read future books from Shelley Gray in the future.
This book had several stories going on. At first, I didn't think I liked that, but then the stories came together, and I saw the purpose in all of them. I thought this one was better than A TEXAN'S HONOR. Scout Proffitt had been a cold-blooded killer, but lately he wanted more. He wanted a normal life. When he won a Texas ranch in a poker game, he was hoping this would be his chance to start over. When he gets to the run-down ranch, he finds the man dead, his wife and one daughter packing to leave, and the other daughter left behind. Rosemarie was a pretty little thing, but her family had made her feel worthless all her life, and blamed her for her brother's death, when his drowning had been an accident. Can two misfits who are so different find the happiness they so long for?
This was a well-written novel with almost no grammatical errors. I found only one awkward sentence--"After he glancing her way, Scout rocked back on his heels." I wish there'd been more faith included, but it's still a good, clean novel. I have loved this series, and A TEXAN'S CHOICE is certainly a five-star for me. I wish there'd be another one about Russell. This series is too good to end yet.
What a palatable tension builds in the last book of this series, it was terrific! All three novels are stories of hope and redemption when all seems lost, broken and the characters despair of life in dire situations. The tale starts with the first novel in the series A Texan’s Promise continues with A Texan’s Honor before winding up parts of the story in the final book reviewed today. One of the many things I enjoy about stories and authors is the many differences in writing style, plot, characters and themes. Shelly Gray wraps up the novel series by tying up some loose ends in the books while leaving some unfinished, left to the readers imaginations.
I was captivated by the books, characters and the way the writer shows how faith can play such a huge role in life. Usually fictional plots, characters and more is taken both from the imagination of the author along with experiencing and watching human beings. Readers will be able to relate to the characters as they think on their pasts along with choices that they made and the probable consequences thereof both short and long term.
Shelley Gray does a wonderful job of showing us through her novel series that while we tend to assume others think one way about us, it is not usually how they really do. A couple of her characters were afraid of moving forward in contacting people because of letting their assumptions dictate their choices. Yet, in a real climactic moment the walls of hearts come down in the characters and as a result they see how so much alike they are really alike when all is said and done. A bunch of the men longed for new beginnings but feeling unworthy of such a leap from how they currently were living lawless lives to normal ones seemed impossible. Therein is the picture of what faith is, being convinced of what is hoped for along with knowing that without the Lord truly new beginnings aren’t possible.
I hope during this summer you take some time to read and appreciate the various adventures and fictional people introduced in all three books. The author did a splendid job and I am glad to have found these books and stories!
