CAN'T DECIDE HOW MANY PLUSES TO GIVE THIS BOOK

Sloan Alexander is tired of running - he is ready to be done with it. McCall Harrison, the legendary widow of some note, is looking for a man to help on her mission. Miss Alyce Wren is looking for the right man to help her "Callie" awaken to real love and release her hidden passions. Now how could a seasoned veteran of the trails let Winter put a knife to his throat? And the little troup of children and two wagons and three adults had to travel into territory where there was danger in drawing a breath if one was not careful. Then Sloan had to rescue Eppie and return her to Moses and jolted McCall's idea of him [again]. Sloan won Winter over and made a good friend of him as they neared the end of their trail. The tenderness and unhappiness and love just pulled you into the story. Miss Alyce had an unknown history with McCall's family that Callie only guessed at but she was definitely shocked when she realized that Harrison loved Miss Lacy. A woman she had come to regard as a friend. Sloan knew that time was running out when Bull showed up on his trail - as a Galvinized Yankee he was dead meat - some of Satan's Seven was coming to collect on their threat. He thought he had found heaven in the "Sanctuary" revealed to them by Miss Alyce until Bull showed up. And the rest is history as they say -- such a facinating story of love and denial - honor and respect - man and woman. Definitely a keeper. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED --?

Jodi Thomas has a wonderful way of bringing a reader into her books. Her story lines are easy to follow, and very enjoyable. She has such a way of portraying her characters that makes them fun to read about, and you can actually picture what is going on. The way Sloan and McCall act around each other is almost comical, yet romantic at the same time. I can't help but laugh at some of the situations they put each other into, and cry at others. I have read all of Her books, and have loved every one of them. I would suggest all of her books to anyone looking for a good romance novel to read. They are not easy to find to buy, but you can find any of them in a public library. She is my favorite author, and a very sweet lady.

Could not put this good read down!!

Adventure, romance, strong characters, a story that has it all!!!!

Magical! Outstanding!!

Jodi Thomas created a lovely, unusual romance that I can't help but give Five stars to. No less would do. For the first time (as far as I know) a romance novelist has broached the subject of Galvenized Yankees, those who change from the south to the north in the midst of the war. She did a beautiful job. She tells what it must have been like for a man to be hated by the north and south alike. McCall Harrison, the heroine, is the daughter of a southerner who died during the war. Yet for the sake of the Indian children she puts aside the hatred she must feel. This is a tale of two special people falling in love in the remains of war. A half senile old woman, who maybe isn't as senile as she appears. And a special half-breed boy named Winter. This is a must read, destined for the keeper shelf.
