Stealing Jake by
author Pam Hillman takes you back out west just outside of Chicago, in the
small town of Chestnut, Illinois. Livy O’Brien
works at the newly opened orphanage to help the poor orphans stay off the
streets and have a chance at a better life.
Livy knows the life of a street kid and of a pickpocket from personal experience
herself due to living on the streets of Chicago. She has found a new life that is forgiven and
a new purpose. However, old feelings die
hard and when she meets deputy Jake Russell, she has a hard time setting aside
those old prejudices of police, especially the corrupt ones. Yet Jake is different as he is a moral man
and both must work together to find the ones behind a rash of crimes that has
erupted in their small town. Jake believes
it is the swarm of street children coming from Chicago, yet Livy has her doubts
and instead sets out to prove them innocent.
What they both stumble upon is much worse than either could have imagined. This was an enjoyable tale of the American
West complete with gunfights, explosions, danger, and a sigh inducing romance. I received a copy for an honest review from The Book Club Network, Inc. and
the opinions are my own honest ones.
