What a "knock out ending" for this fantastic trilogy!

Having enjoyed the first two books in the Merry Widow trilogy I was all set to enjoy Sarah's story. She is strong, independent, and a woman who is training and selling horses on her own now that Catherine and Mary have married and have homes of their own. Rio Santee is a man on the run with his two sons. He is accused of murder and is being hunted by killers who are more like animals. He finds Sarah's home in a rainstorm and seeks shelter and food for his sons. Sarah is shocked, but comes to realize she will come to no harm, and decides to help Rio and his sons since he is in dire striates. It never seems to stop raining, which keeps the townspeople away as well as the killers.One of the things that Rio wants to protect Sarah against is that he is part Apache, and although he never fought with the Apaches against the whites, he is an outcast. He suffered a family tragedy when his deceased Irish grandfather left him a house and land. Breeds were not allowed to own property and it was taken away from him with tragic results.Sarah and Rio both have deep secrets that have caused them great pain. As they learn to know one another they find themselves caring about one another and are able to share their pain and through love are healed. I did a whole lot of crying while reading this uplifting romance. Get out the hankie box! And it's got a knockout ending.To me, Sarah's story wraps up this trilogy perfectly with a great heroine and a hero you'll remember for a long time to come. He is phenomenal. I think you will be turning the pages just as quickly as I did. Look forward to a rewarding reading experience and I bet you will be smiling through your tears and cheering for a writer who believes in the power of love. Ms. Michaels, I love your books, your spirit, your creativity, and you write the best dag-gone heroes ever!
you won't forget RIO

This is probably the best of "The Merry Widows" trilogy. Auhtor Teresa Michaels sets an exciting, sensuous pace that never lets up. And beautiful embattled "Sarah" really is a match for the dangerous, compelling renegade Rio - "your worst nightmare." A great read - I loved it.
Uplifting Romance!

I'm not kidding when I say that Michaels is a genius in romance novels. I have read The Merry Widows: Mary, and now she hands me this great book called The Merry Widows: Catherine. I loved Lord Romeo, the cat, and the hen. I liked the cat best. I liked Catherine because she isn't afraid of being a tomboy. A woman climbing trees back then was scandalous. I stayed up until 4:00 AM reading it. It was fantastic! I liked Gregory because he was just sooooooooooooo romantic. If Catherine is this good, I can't wait to read The Merry Widows: Sarah. Michaels, your stories are the best!
