review 1: It's been a very long time since I've read a real western novel so I thought I'd give this one a try when Black Lion Virtual Books presented it to me. I'm glad I did. It took me on a nostalgic trip to my younger days...John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara...old western movies and when times were simpler and love was love. Cynthia Woolf is a born storyteller in the old-fashioned sense. She's one who knows how to grip you from the first pages and carry you through without giving you a minute to draw your breath. I literally read this book in one sitting. It moves in lightening speed! Her plot is not complicated but her main characters are. Rosie is a woman any of us would be proud to know and call a role model. Tom's sexiness bleeds through... I liked him, lots!!! While... more this is not a book with a serious story line or a deep secret to tell, it is; nevertheless, very entertaining to read. As I said above, it took me on a very happy trip to my younger days and I liked that. For lovers of Harlequin Romance novels set in the west, this is the perfect book! 3 stars for a fun read.
review 2: What happens when a woman who answers a mail-order bride notice, arrives in Colorado to discover it was all a lie? Cynthia Woolf has her own unique writing style. Simple and straight-forward, you always know what the characters are thinking and the direction they're going. Rosie knows exactly what she wants, but when she finds out she may never have it, she becomes a bit perturbed with Tom, but is true to her word and vows to stay with him.Tom wasn't very likeable at first. I wanted to hit him upside the head for his gruff ways, but he had his reasons and the reader will soon find those out. Rosie is tough, strong, and ready to work hard, and Tom soon realizes that he got the better of end of the arrangement and does what he has to do in order to make up for his initial handling of the situation. I would recommend this book to readers who enjoy a simple and fun western romance story. Content Note: The graphic scenes were a little too graphic for me, but I think it's somewhat the norm for a lot of romance books these days. There is also some language. less
