Customer Reviews

One of Rogers best yet!

I just got this book and read it in one night. It did remind me of Sweet Savage Love and Dangerous Man, but just because it has some of the same excitement. Jake and Angie are great together,and I love the facts about the west. I felt like I was there with them. So please, Ms Rogers, keep writing!

Wonderful read! This one has it all....

This book took my breath away. I was hooked from the first page. I thought the hero so sexy. The plot was intriguing without being too complicated for me to enjoy, like some I've read. I love westerns, and will look for all of this writer's books now. She knows how to take a stay at home mom away from kids and dishes to a world of romance!

Fantastic romance!

From the first page, I was hooked. This book has it all, romance and adventure, a brave heroine and a hero to die for! It reminds me of the early romances. Angela is gutsy, and Jake a real hero. A great book!

Good-less violence and gore

In 1870, Angela Lindsay leaves France for New Mexico in order to see her father for the first time in almost two decades. When she reaches New Orleans, she is heartbroken to learn that he recently died. Angela inherits his large ranch as long as she resides on it for one year. Even though he tried to talk her out of the remainder of the dangerous trek, a reluctant friend of her father, Jake Braden, escorts Angela and her mother across Texas towards her ranch.Jake is working undercover for the Army trying to ferret out the identity of the gunrunners selling weapons to the Apaches. Along the trek west, the pair begins to fall in love However, neither one can feel safe because someone covets her new property and that individual will do anything, including abductions and murder, to insure he obtains his desires.With a publishing history of ten popular historical and three contemporaries on her resume, readers might think that Rosemary Rogers would become complacent. Instead, the New York Times best selling author may have written her best novel to date because she tones down her trademark graphic violence and paints a beautiful western romance starring two personable and intriguing characters.Harriet Klausner
