Abandoned in the woods by her asshole boyfriend, the heroine takes shelter in an abandoned saloon only to be sucked into a picture of an old time bar singer. She's immediately mistaken for being this woman, minus the huge breasts. As she tries to tell them she's not this woman, she's kidnapped by a rival saloon by the hero. He's tortured by the decision he makes to take the job as he considers it unmoral and wrong but he needs the money to fulfill a promise to his dead wife to take his son back to Oregon. The heroine, despite the fact that she's terrified and lost in the predicament she finds herself in, is funny, easy going but shut down emotionally. She's been told all her life, by her shitty aunt never to cry or show emotions. However, she has a big heart and when she finds herself in the cabin of her kidnapper with his son, she's easily forgiving of what he did and takes to teaching his boy. She's very much the aggressor in the courtship and I sometimes found myself wincing at her boldness. The hero, who's described as looking like Mel Gibson, is kind and willing to do anything for his child. He's hesitant to get into a physical relationship with the heroine because, a, she's a bar singer and b, because he's just kidnapped her for money. I found the story to be pretty strength forward. No surprises and very predictable with each character playing their part. There were times when facts to the story were mixed up and things were dragged out in order to extend the story but overall it was a decent story. ( )
