With her family's legacy on the line, a woman with everything to lose must rely on a man hiding from his past... Oklahoma, 1890 Frontier women don't ride off alone to track an outlaw--not even women as capable as tomboy spinster Willa Malone. But Willa desperately needs the bounty money offered for her father's killer if she's to keep their homestead and take care of her sisters. That means she needs an expert tracker's help. Gideon Hartley has the skill, but the handsome trail guide also has a troubling secret... Gideon has spent years trying to numb his pain with whiskey. Little by little, their quest--and Willa's belief in him--is restoring the sense of purpose he thought he'd lost. Journeying into the heart of danger, they'll have to face down the past together if they hope to protect their future... "Linda Goodnight is a writer who pulls readers into her stories with characters who come off the pages with life." --Jodi Thomas, New York Times bestselling author
Loved this book after I got into it. The 1st couple of chapters I didn't know if I would finish it. Then I read on & found I could not put it down. One of the best I've read in a long time. The trials & tribulations they went through were (I'm sure back in those days were about accurate), she was one powerful woman. Have to get another couple of Linda Goodnight's books & hope they are as good as this one is.
Historical Romance
Published by TinaLovesToRead , 3 years ago
This is a Western Historical Romance. This book takes place in Oklahoma during 1890. I have a love hate relationship with Historical Romance. I have learn that I need more then the romance driving the book. I hate the flowering writing that is in some historical fiction book, but this book does not having it. I do not know if it is because it takes place in the Old West in American. I love the action and the suspense in this book. The characters are so great in this book. I also love that this book shows a lot of the problems that happen in the Old West. Great Read and Very Well Written. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
