"In the mid 1850's a Texas Ranger comes into contact with a woman who has run away from her cruel father in Washington D.C. and made her way to Texas. Of course, they fall in love, but the book dishes up excitement and adventure along the way. Entertaining. "

Quotes
-
“Thomas’ name is synonymous with tough and tender western romances and it’s no wonder. She crafts well-plotted stories with realistic characters and captures the essence of the western landscape and people. The beauty of her novels is not just the touching love story but her passion for the harsh yet beautiful, strong yet vulnerable, courageous and intrepid world she recreates.”

" I just love Jodi Thomas. The relationships between her characters are believable and complex and lovely. This one doesn't disappoint in that area, and the hero is just delicious. "

— Laura, 1/24/2014 -
" More like a 1.5 -- but since I don't want to scream for having wasted my time...I rounded up. "
— Christine, 1/12/2014 -
" This is the third year to read this series of Whispering Mountian by Jodi Thomas. First time I read this was in 2009 I got the books from the Van Alsyne Library and then in 2010 I bought my Kindle and Jodi Thomas was one of first authors I add. "

" I think I will actually give this 3.5 stars. I really did enjoy it. It was a nice romance novel. I would read more by this author. It had all the stereo-type romance novel stuff going for it, but there was also a sweet genuineness that was refreshing. "

" Read this book last instead of first like it is in the series but still enjoyed it. "
— Jodi, 12/16/2013 -
" Time for a good western! It was a cute read. Kind of simplistic in parts and if I read about Rainey's pies one more time it would have been one time too many. Now, Travis.........my oh my! Man after my heart! "
— Regan, 12/12/2013 -
" Sweet Story!! "
— Christel, 12/8/2013 -
" OK, predictable but at least the romance was actually romance...call me a tradionalist. Plus a little history thrown in for good measure. Can't say I whole heartedly recommend it, but wasn't a bad way to pass a snowy afternoon. "
— Lane, 10/26/2013 -
" This was an awesome book! It made me want to read the whole Whispering Mountain series. "
— Sheila, 9/29/2013 -
" This was a very sweet romance but a very slow build. I love reading about rugged cowboys or rangers. I just wish that there was a little more steam that I normally like in my books. Overall, this was an enjoyable historical western. "

" This is one of my favorite Historical Westerns. The entire series(Whispering Mountain Novels) is great, but I enjoy this one the best. I loved the romance and the adventure in the book. Warning, there are some "steamy" parts in the book. "
— Sherdene, 9/13/2012 -

" Westerns aren't really a big favourite of mine, but this (like others by this author that I've read) is a generally pleasant read - characters have enough roundness, plot has enough plausibility for me to go along with it. "
