Johanna Lindsey fans might like this book; I thought it was average, at best. The story opens when Colt Thunder, a Cheyenne half-breed, was being whipped almost to death for having the gall to court a white woman.
In the meantime, Jocelyn Fleming married a duke and soon lost him through death. However, the duke knew that she would have trouble with the inheritor of his entailed estates and sent her around the world to experience life and hopefully find a new husband. She eventually gets to America and the West. She's trying to evade the inheritor who wants all of the money that the dead duke collected for Jocelyn to make her world trip.
To that end, she has an entourage, complete with a teal carriage and 12 guards. This plot has so many holes in it that the reader can drive the teal carriage through it.
However, my real beef with the formula story was the lack of meaningful dialogue between the hero and heroine. In the end, I couldn't see why they thought they had any promise of a future life together. The 'problem' of Jocelyn's virginity was laughable.
