    About this audiobook

    With two trail drives under his belt, Dewey "Mac" Mackenzie has proven to be more than a good chuckwagon cook. He's good at serving up justice, too-with a side of hot lead . . .

    Mac Mackenzie has enough problems on his plate. He's got bounty hunters on his tail, no one on his side, and no place to hide. Just when he thinks it can't get any worse, he hears the rumbling of a cattle stampede-heading straight for his camp. Mac's got two choices: Get trampled like a weed or saddle up and help get the herd under control. At first, the traildrivers ain't too pleased to have a stranger help them out. But once they realize Mac's not a rustler, they ask him to join the team. Mac takes them up on the offer-especially after he meets the cowgirl Colleen-and quickly impresses everyone with his cooking skills. There's just a few more problems:

    Mac's new employers are the real rustlers. And Mac's stepped out of the frying pan into the fire . . .

      Title: A Hill of Beans (A Chuckwagon Western #3)Author: William W. Johnstone and J. A. JohnstonePages: 384Year: 2020Publisher: PinnacleMy rating: 5 out of 5 starsDewey “Mac” Mackenzie has been on the dodge for a while now, making his way west as a cook for various cattle outfits on their way to the market. Mac is an easy-going fella, whose talent of making the best biscuits for trail herds makes it easy for him to land a job. Now Mac is once again with an outfit named Rafter B, and one of the crew dislikes him a lot though Mac doesn’t know it.While on the trail, the boss and what turns out to be his family get entangled with a pair of medicine show people. But that isn’t all, there is someone powerful with a killer crew dogging their trail and the closer they get to their destination the more it seems like things between these folks are about to explode! At the same time, there are two women with the outfit who flirt with Mac, and while he is interested well his past just may keep him from exploring any future possibilities.The novel has all the makings of a killer story and it delivers with all barrels loaded! I really enjoy the Mac character and the tension that arises between his unsettled past and the future he envisions. There is gun smoke, trail dust and driving cattle, romance and very touching moments in the story. Rarely do I get chocked up or get teary eyed when reading a book, but there is one character who I really got attached to and then had to say goodbye to him and the rest of the trail crew at least for now.I hope you are ready to get lost in the pages of yet another Johnstone novel because this one delivers outstandingly! You can read the first two books in the series titled, The Chuckwagon Trail and Die by the Gun. Enjoy!Note: The opinions shared in this review are solely my responsibility.
