This is a Leonberger blog but sometimes I post about books that are not about Leonbergers but are books that I love and want to promote. This is another one of those posts. I recently read a brand new release, “That’s What Partners Do (Fourth book of An Outlaw’s Tale Series)” Paperback version – by Sara Flower Kjeldsen. It is a western featuring female gunslingers. Below I am giving an overview of the two formats for the book.

- Kindle – Publisher : Independently published (January 10, 2026), ASIN : B0GDRQZBKV, 214 pages. It is currently $3.99 or free with Kindle Unlimited. Click here to order it from Amazon.com.

Amazon’s description of the book
Sally has created a unique life for herself, but when a mission goes wrong, she’s forced to flee and leave everything behind – again. Her partner in crime, Jeremy, rides with her on a risky journey back to her hometown. While they’ve worked together for years completing missions in the darkness, they know little about one another.
She’s forced to face the past she doesn’t want to remember – and a sister she hasn’t seen in years. Her future plans are disrupted when she and her sister are kidnapped by an outlaw gang.
Will they escape, or is a dark new future waiting for them?
This is my five-star review for That’s What Partners Do by Sara Flower Kjeldsen
Only Kill the Evil Ones
I read the paperback version of this book, the fourth in a series about female outlaws in the wild west. They are Mary, Lydia and Sally. This book is focused on Sally, but all three women make appearances. These women are not evil, but they are skilled gunslingers who encounter cruel and evil men and are forced to defend themselves or innocent women and other people. As Sally, says, “I only kill the evil ones. I have never murdered an innocent person.“ Sally, is an interesting, brave, and tough character who is fascinated by tornadoes.
Sally and her partner in crime, Jeremy, are forced to leave everything behind and go on a risky journey back to her hometown. Along the way there are mishaps, tornadoes, they come across bandits and they have a terrifying encounter with human traffickers who kidnap women. Some of the adventures are breathtaking and scary nailbiters and I often found it impossible to put down the book. This book is a little different from the other ones in the series in the sense that most of the main characters in the series are showing up in the book. There is also steamy romance and extensive character development.
Like all the books in the series the book brings attention to the difficulties women faced back in the day while at the same time depicting women as strong and tough. The stories are fun and captivating while depicting gritty realism, violence, and sometimes moral ambiguity. It all makes for a great read, and I highly recommend this book.

Yes it sounds like a good book for your husband. I think Sara writes in style of the so called Spaghetti Westerns, such as the Good Bad and Ugly, lots of darkness and violence, but great stories, and the “heroes” are not Blondie (Clint Eastwood) or Harmonica (Charles Bronson) but Sally, Mary and Lydia. Like Blondie and Harmonica they are not innocent purely good heroes, and they have suffered greatly. If he likes that he would like this book. Anyway, that’s the westerns I like. Have a great weekend you too.

this sounds great – anything with gunslingers, gangs, bandits and strong women has my vote –

Yes I think so. There are some very evil men and then there were strong women who were not angels but tough brave and complex characters who knew how to shoot, and they fought back. It is not a very common story in literature but it is a good one. Thank you so much Beth.

Lulu: “This does seem like a more morally defensible approach than ‘Kill them all and let God sort them out’.”Oona: “Oh Oona is not so sure, she would be willing to try them both to see which works better.”

Oona I think I prefer Lulu thinking, well maybe except for rats, and I guess you are a hunter of rats.

Thank you so much for your kind words Annika. I agree, in traditional westerns the gunslingers are always men but women can learn to shoot too, and be center of good western stories.
