|  | | Chester-Shaw: a Sequel to Reba
Beginning three years after the end of Reba, Chester-Shaw continues the story of Reba and the Chester family as Bramble Ford grows in size and numbers. Reba is now married with a son, and the rest of the Chesters are quickly following suit, bringing spouses and children into the family. All is not peaceful, though, as brother Dan is being chased by persistent young females, the Harpers reappear, bent on revenge, or at the very least a little trouble; and Missy Theodore Lawton has returned with her husband, brother-in-law and his wife, determined to give Bramble Ford a taste of ‘high society’, but it appears that she and the people of Bramble Ford still have a lesson to learn.

If your family is with you, you don’t need the approval of friends; and if your family is big enough, you don’t even need friends! Or, you don’t if you’re Reba Chester. No one else approves of her, or the things she does. "A lady," they claim, "does not rope cattle, she does not ride bareback. A lady does not even know how to handle a gun, and most certainly has never killed a man! A lady does not go visit her sister and deliver her baby nephew before leaving. A lady would never ride in a horse race and she wouldn’t refuse a proposal from the aristocratic, landed, but also undeniably dumb and deceitful young Bruce Lawton!" But Reba does all of these things and more. No one but her family approves of her actions, and that doesn’t bother her. She’s a new kind of lady, and the people of Bramble Ford would do well to realize it!
