A nice play on words in the title. Dalton Moon is not a man easily roped... He is a man to be reckoned with though with his fast draw and steadfast view on the law and keeping people on the right side of it. He is not welcomed by all in the town of Far Creek. Some want him to clean up the town and others wish for keeping the peace by playing along with the Pullman family. Lacy Tyler is not sure which side of the fence she on because of her loyalty to her uncle Otis, the longstanding marshal. He warned the townsfolk that things would get worse before they got better... and he was right. A great read in the early West where the railroad was still being built and was causing ranchers to part with their land. Deborah Camp writes well and created a good plot. Her characters are diverse and interesting and I enjoyed reading this story very much.

Title: Ropin' the Moon Author: Deborah Camp Publisher: D.C. Reviewed By: Arlena Dean Rating: Four Review: "Ropin' the Moon" by Deborah Camp My Rationalization: This was quite a western historical fiction romance story that featured Dalton Moon and Lacey Tyrell. We find Dalton had come to this town as town Marshall to get it back on the right track after it had been run over by some ruthless that bullied people mainly the Pullman's and his crew. The previous deputy sheriff [Lacy's uncle] had failed at this job so now Dalton was now there to clean up the town from all the riffraff that was going on. What will happen when Dalton first sees Lacey as he is riding into this historic Old West town of Far Creek on his trusty steed, Solder and finds out that Lacey is not only beautiful but spirited and not afraid to let one know her opinion? What will happen as there seems to be a conflict between the ranchers and the railroad? How will this conflict come out in the end with a story with plenty of suspense, murder, beatings, shootings, and adventure along with a touch of romance with feelings that will spark between the two Dalton and Lacey? I will say I didn't care much for the heroine at first but she did warm up somewhat at the end. Now, for Lacy's uncle Otis I still didn't care much for him and his girlfriend. For most of the story, I did find most of the characters convincing and engaging which did help give the reader an entertaining read. To get all of these questions answered to this well-written story with 'drama, lots of action, love,' and so much more you will have to pick up "Ropin' the Moon' to see how everything comes out.
