review 1: The Hale family has built a profitable business in Colorado after leaving their ancestral home in Kentucky while the children, Ambrose and Jessica, were young. Now they are both grown up, and Ambrose leaves to return to fight for Kentucky in the Civil War. Branded as traitors by Northern extremists, Jessica's family is killed when they burn down her house. Jessica is spared and is taken to Jake Bennett's ranch where she can heal and stay out of danger, since everyone believes that she was also killed in the fire. Over time Jessica learns to love ranch life and love Jake, but her stubbornness and fear of losing cause her to keep her distance. The author really created a great cast of characters; I got a little tired of Jess always demanding her own way though. I was very pl... moreeased with the love story....true to life pure love & romance without unrealistic sex thrown in, and realistic Christian values that weren't preachy or gratuitous. Jake is almost too good to be true though...can't wait to start the sequel!
review 2: I really enjoyed this one! All the ranch happenings were really fun to read about and didn’t get so detailed that you were bored. The way Tammy skipped long periods of time was very well written. Since this book takes place over a few years, she couldn’t include all the day-to-day occurrences; I think she wrote the book in a way that the gaps weren’t missed and it was still easy to follow the storyline. The civil war era is one of my favorites to read about, and this book didn’t disappoint. I loved the way Tammy wrote the cowhands! They are now some of my favorite characters. I especially loved how gentle and protective they were with Jess. It was too sweet! I’m now very anxious to read book two. ;) Congrats to Tammy Barley for this great read! less
