Blood Bounty of the Mountain Man  -- 5 stars

The beginning of this book, Blood Bounty of the Mountain Man began rather slowly and seemed like another story amount the famous Smoke Jensen.  It didn’t take long for the authors to get into the interesting part of the story beginning with Smoke being involved in doing good for others.

This led to an injury that caused amnesia.  But the basic nature of the man always comes through and although he resorted to an old alias, he had used in his earlier crime fighting--Buck West. He was still definitely on the side of good even if he didn’t know who he was.

Being in several delicate situations concerning the fairer sex as well as the local crime boss, let him to wonder what was happening.  The story unfolds rather rapidly.  What he doesn’t realize that the love of his life, Sally, was pining for him back on his huge range, Sugarloaf.

How does he find out who he is when he hears about an outlaw claiming to be the famous Smoke Jensen and robbing and killing right and left?  The story comes to a dramatic conclusion when the townspeople in Last Change Spring decide to stand up and take back their town.

The dramatic conclusion happens with Smoke meets Smoke in a deadly gun battle.  One Smoke will survive but which one?  Fun read.
