The McKenna Brothers duology follows two brothers whose lives on the frontier are anything but safe. This Gun for Hire and The Devil You Know pair Western action with the slow-building romance that has defined Jo Goodman’s career.
Published in the mid-2010s, the series shows Goodman continuing to develop the Western historical romance she’d been perfecting since the Reidsville books. The McKenna brothers are complex men — capable and tough, but carrying burdens that only the right woman can help them set down.
