This author has done what many other seem incapable of doing: creating characters that jump into your heart and stay there. Jake is your typical hero with a wounded past, yet that doesn't make him an aloof jerk. He's instantly likeable. And Emily is a ray of pure sunshine without being too syrupy sweet or annoying. And beneath that sunny exterior is another person in need of true love. It's not only the main characters that will appeal to readers, though. Even the secondary characters, like Emily's sister Kate, are ones you feel you know by the end of the book.

This historical romance was well researched, and the details woven into the background of the story so well that they never detracted from the romance. This book was a lovely look into the frontier life of Montana at the end of the 1800's.

The author's writing style was very pleasant and easy to read. It was not one of those books where you have to struggle to understand what the writer is trying to say. And it was full of laugh-out-loud moments, as well as the ones that touched your heart. This was a story to give you the "warm fuzzies" when you're finished reading it, yet at the same time, it's not a light piece of fluff. The struggles and fears of the characters are deeply felt by the reader
