I liked 'The Reluctant Sheriff', but I found some sections dragged a little. The action scenes are great, though, and Mick Hardin is a really relatable character. It’s worth a read if you have the patience for it!

A thrilling read from start to finish!
I just finished 'The Reluctant Sheriff' and I couldn't put it down. The plot was gripping and the character development of Mick Hardin was top-notch. If you're a fan of crime novels, this one definitely delivers!

Disappointed with the ending
I was excited to read this Mick Hardin novel, but the ending fell flat for me. It felt rushed and didn’t wrap things up well. It had potential but didn't quite deliver as I hoped. Not sure if I'll pick up the next one.
