The Tonto Woman by Elmore Leonard

A humorous short story. The plot is good. A tattooed woman gets back her dignity with the help by Ruben Vega. He seems to be kind and sincere to her but on the other hand, he was pretending to be so only because he wants to steal the horses from John, her husband.

Full of humorous pages, especially at the end of the story. The tattooed woman teases her husband: “I am not sure I’ve had the pleasure.” “I don’t know if I want to be married to you.” “Did you hear that? He provides me.”

Vega was a nice guy, saved her and smoothly and naturally parts her giving life to her future. A western style story.
