Sam's Creed is the second book in the Hell's Eight series by Sarah McCarty. In this book, we get Sam's story. Texas Ranger Sam MacGregor is out searching for a woman (as detailed in the epilogue in the first book of the series - Caine's Reckoning) when he comes upon a couple of burned out wagons. Exploring the wreckage, he comes upon Isabella "Bella" Montoya. Bella is trying to get away from Tejala, a bad guy who controls a large part of the territory and is determined to marry Bella. Bella enlists Sam's help in trying to get away from Tejala's men who are determined to bring Bella to Tejala. Sarah McCarty's books are an auto-buy for me. After reading Caine's Reckoning, I couldn't wait to read the next book in the Hells Eight series. And to be honest, while I enjoyed the book, I was a tad disappointed in it. While the steaminess was there, there didn't seem to be much of a varied plot- think feisty heroine (feisty defined as she continually disregards Sam's instructions when the bad guys appear), alpha male who's determined not to fall for the heroine as they both try to keep away from the bad guys. Not a bad story line, but after reading the author's other books, it seemed like there could have/should have been more to it.If you've never read a Sarah McCarty's books, this isn't a bad book to start with though you may wonder what all the fuss is about. If you're a fan of Sarah's books, I think you'll like the book, and there is a bonus as there's an introduction of possible characters that will appear in the next book (Tucker's story).
