Customer Reviews

I really liked these people and this story

This one is definitely a keeper. I've re-read it half a dozen times now and know I will continue to enjoy it again and again. It doesn't get old or tired. The hero is a real hunk with enough interesting complexity to keep you wondering. For a guy the heroine suspects of shady dealings, he keeps behaving very unexpectedly. Aside from being heartstoppingly hunky, he has nothing at all in common with the brutal, bodice-ripping, irresistable devils that are such a stereotype in a large segment of the romance genre. (If you are into ripped bodices and graphic sex, folks, look elsewhere!) The heroine is a bit off-puttingly perfect at first, but she grows on you. She's a recent widow struggling to raise her family and keep it together despite increasingly frightening circumstances. The peripheral characters are delightful. I know I can count on the gentle humor in this book for a smile. The story is humanly warm and romantic, there's plenty of drama and suspense. I can't wait to read more of Ms. Graham's writing.

Vivid portrayal of *real* people in love.

Lovely story of great loss and yearning love found unexpectedly. As a newcomer to Texas, I appreciated the vivid lyricism of the writing about people and places - it brought this strange new place alive for me. More from this author, please!
