This was a sweet western-style romance that I really enjoyed. All of the characters were very engaging, likable people, although Johnny could be a little stubborn and mule-headed at times. The romance developed between Johnny and Ragan very naturally, and there were a few mildly steamy moments that made me blush a little. :o)
This book was originally written as a mainstream romance that was rewritten as Christian fiction, and I thought Lori did a great job revising it. The Christian elements did not seem to be written in as an afterthought, but instead, blended very well into the whole story.
Overall, this was a very good book with a good message, some humor, and a nice dose of romance. I'm very eager to read the next book in the series which I know Lori rewrote for the Christian fiction market as well.

I liked the story alot. It had lots of twists & turns. It was interesting to watch how the two main characters interacted & how they finally got together where they belonged. Now on to the next title in this series.

As Johnny warms to the environment he has been forced into, he begins to care about the judge, Ragan, her family and the others in the town. Johnny wants to help them stop the outlaw raids that occur on a daily basis.

Can their love and their faith in God stop Johnny from going forward with his plan to revenge his family?
Another wonderful story from Lori Copeland.
