Reviewer: A reader
I thought this book was quite enjoyable. The main characters were wonderful and appealing, and the connection between them was great. I would have liked to have seen more of the individual women at Angel's Fall, or Sabrehawk's sidekick, Fletcher. They were somewhat forgotten as the story goes on. But for the most part, the book was well written and very enjoyable and heart warming. Through the challenges that Julie had to face, she strived to stay strong and pessimistic, even when the town tries to run her off. And as she fell in love with the strong Sabrehawk, she still strived to keep her independance. I recommend this book to anyone that likes adventurous romances with just a touch of mystery.

Good condition. Slight wear on the edges. A small stain on edge of last few pages and back cover. Still readable
