"I like a good western novel once in awhile :-) I was somehow expecting a little more but in the end I wasn't disappointed. Was a little predictable at times, I knew immediately that Hallie, Pearl and Mary would end up with the Morgan boys. But that's what romance novels are all about after all!" — Kelly (4 out of 5 stars)

“There is nothing better than Dorothy Garlock at her best.”
“Every Dorothy Garlock book is synonymous with a great read.”
“Garlock’s latest is an endearing story about two lonely hearts who find each other and how their love weathers every storm. The dialogue is authentic, the action engaging, and the characters easily capture your heart.”
" was good but doesnt take place during the depression years, which I prefer from Garlock. Good though!! "
" I think it was the narration of this book that ruined it for me. The voices were very cartoonish. "
" A STORY OF THE WEST AND THE WAY MEN TRATED WOMEN. NICE QUICK READING ADVENTURE. "
" I could skip a lot of this one. Pretty tame and lame. Garlock's are usually better or maybe I just wasn't in the mood. "
" Good western about a woman escaping domestic violence with adventure, some mystery, fighting and romance but more bad language than I would like. Had some surprises along the way with a wide variety of characters. A quick, light entertaining read. "
" Decent. More cussin' than I was expecting. "
" Dorothy Garlock writes about women in the late 1800s/early 1900s. This was a good fast read. "
" a good story--an inspirational audio book "
" This romance is not a great book. It's quiet and enjoyable enough but never quite catches the reader. "
" This an old fashioned romance novel, and a western to boot. I am not a fan of them, but someone lent it to me, and I decided to read it. About two thirds of the way through, I almost stopped reading it, but I finished it. "
" Good read, not very pleasant cahracters, but still ok. "
" Ok. Took too long to tell this story. "
