Love the old west atmosphere

Who wouldn't want to stay in a bed and breakfast called the Racy Ladies" which was a old Western brothel? The rooms are named after the ladies who plied their trade there. Thea Barlow, an editor for Western True Adventures, is not bad as a modern day main character. I really liked the Sheila character, who is a master chef and Tarot reader, deluxe and hope to hear more of her in the future. Maybe she and Thea will open a restaurant. My only criticism is that this is one of those book where I came up with the answers much before the main character. It seems odd that she wouldn't have had a laptop with her and would have looked Frogskin and Muttonfat up. I knew muttonfat was something else when I first read it but Thea, of course, takes much longer to find out. Anyway this was a good read, and I would read future books when available.
