" This book was a pretty typical Macomber. It reminded me heavily of her Dakota series, which is one of my favorites! I understand that she wrote the first story, 'Denim and Diamonds' first, then was encouraged by her fans to continue Lonny's story with 'The Wyoming Kid'. However, for this compilation, couldn't she simply have labeled the stories with one title and divided them into two parts? They are, after all, about the same people in the same town, albeit the focus is shifted from Letty to Lonny. The endings were quite obvious, but as usual with Debbie Macomber's stories, it's getting there that's the fun part. I liked Chase, but didn't care for Letty or her daughter (I found Cricket too perfect a child. No child really acts like that, come on). I did like Joy, and Lonny was passionate, and Tom was a great addition to the second story, which felt like it moved along like molasses. All in all, great generic Macomber read, but certainly not her best. "
