Sometimes the only thing that keeps a man going is the promise of spring..or the love of a good woman.
From the moment Gavin Blake set eyes on Rachel, he knew she would never make a frontier wife. Beautiful and refined, she was accustomed to the best life had to offer, not backbreaking work and constant hardship. But the warmth in her sky-blue eyes and the fire she set in his blood soon convinced him that the new life he was struggling to build would be empty unless she were at his side.

Book #2 in the "Women of the West" series. I personally did not read this series but, my mother read this whole series and loved it.
