Summary: A good read
Review: This book had a lot of elements of a historical western romance, however it was set in modern times. I loved the vivid descriptions of the landscape, however the gruesome attacks by the person trying to sabatoge the range were described in way too much detail for me. I was sure I knew who the killer was, only to find out that I guessed wrong!

I enjoyed the storyline of 3 half-sisters who have never met before, from very different walks of life, coming together and uniting for the common cause, and finding loving men and supportive relationships. The book was a little too long for me, and dragged along in parts, but all-in-all a good read.

Summary: Good characters, but no fun to read!
Review:
I am a Nora Roberts fan, but I did not enjoy this book at all!

The three main characters were well drawn: tough cowboy Willa, glamourous screenwriter Tess, and sweet, abused Lily were likeable, as well as the men they fell for. I gave the book a star because of them.

However, and this is a big however, I HATED the parts in the book that deal with rape, sodomism, and the mutilation of animals/people!!! I wanted to warn anyone who is going to read this book that if scenes like that bother you, read no further! If you are a fan of Mary Higgins Clark, or another realistic suspense writer, then by all means, read this book. But if you are just looking for a good romance, skip it!!!

I finished the book because I wanted to find out if the main characters end up together, but I returned it to the library the day after I read it. It left a nasty feeling in my mind.

I know that Roberts is celebrated for her suspense thrillers, but this was my first experience with one of them. I am planning to steer clear of ALL of her thrillers, and stick with the cozy romances that don't make you recoil in disgust as you read them!

I know that many others enjoy this book (it was recommended very highly to me), but I am just stating my personal opinion. Pur society has to deal with issues such as wife beating, prostitution, etc. every day. When I read, I'd rather not be reminded of them!

Summary: Hugh Nora Roberts Fan!!!
Review: This is the first Nora Roberts book I read. I purchased this book from a book club, picking it from the short caption about the story. I didn't read it for several months but when I did I was hooked on Nora Roberts. Nora Roberts can be very suspensefull writer and at the same time add romance to the mix. I love her books and have purchased and read 15-20 of them. I look forward to all her new releases as they are the best.
