review 1: I could not put this book down! Perhaps because I once lived near Yellowstone and wrote stories about this grand place, perhaps because I love (and miss Montana)... but also because the story line is so engaging! Janet Fox weaves a tapestry of family -- of love, dedication, betrayal, and forgiveness. No family is perfect and the story setting, in the midst of a beautiful yet dangerous landscape, adds to the complexity and conflict. Yet, there is redemption, something all of us yearn for. Though touted for young adults, those who enjoy historical romance will be delighted by what they discover in the pages of this book! Hats of to a wonderful Montana author!
review 2: I began reading Janet Fox's Faithful because I was intrigued by the setting - Yellowstone Natio
... morenal Park, early on in the 20th century. It was hard at first to really get started reading... I felt like the main character, Maggie, narrated her story in circles. Maggie is plucked up from her posh Newport life and transplanted to Yellowstone under false pretenses from her father, and when she discovers that he has no intention of going back to their former life in the east she has to adapt quickly. What did keep me going was the mystery, suspense and detailed scenery Fox provided. The writing is filled with knowledge which makes Fox's former profession as a geologist apparent. I loved that. However, this book could have easily been 100 pages shorter and would have made for a much better read. less
