The Sierra Chronicles

review 1: Newly wedded ranchers, Jake and Jessica Bennett face drought, prejudice against the Indians they befriend and anti-Southerner sentiment in the West during the Civil War. Besides these hazards, someone with a personal vendetta wants Jess dead. Jake's efforts to protect Jess succeed only in raising her ire. Unconfided heartaches and the pain of loss drive a wedge between the couple. Can they find their way to harmony? Can they escape an unknown enemy?In Hope's Promise, book two of The Sierra Chronicles, author Tammy Barley continues the romance and adventure that began in book one, Love's Rescue. Deep characterizations and riveting action scenes as well as tender romance and a touch of humor enliven this well-plotted story. Occasionally the author explained a point she'd alr... moreeady illustrated and thus diluted its impact. Nevertheless I don't hesitate to recommend Hope's Promise for women who enjoy Western Romance. ©2010 Janalyn Voigt*The author provided a complimentary copy of this book to me for purposes of review.
review 2: I enjoyed the storyline of "Hope's Promise", but I didn't read the first book of the series, and feel I've really missed things. This book appears to have picked up where "Love's Rescue" left off. It felt like I had "walked" into the middle of a movie or conversation, being somewhat lost but still enjoying what I part I was exposed to.Jess is a strong woman who faces many problems and dangers. She loves fiercely, and lives in a time and place that is difficult for a man, let alone a woman. She goes to great measures to protect those that she loves, and what she does, makes the story quite exciting.After reading this book, I really want to get my hands on "Love's Rescue". I crave the character development and learning about all the events that took place before "Hope's Promise". There are so many references back to things that happened before, that I feel this just doesn't work as a stand-alone. less
