Summary: Another compelling book from Cait London
Review: Cait London gets into the minds of her characters and brings them to life. She has done it again with Sable. 'Leaving Lonely Town' is very realistic. It is about a woman living life, as well as a romance. I can thoroughly recommend this book.

Summary: This book is the worst drivel I have ever read
Review: I tried - I really did, but I could not bear to finish reading this book. It was so awful. The dialogue was unbelievable. The characters were worse than cliche - no human beings exist like these in nature. Avoid this book at all costs.

Summary: Great Story About Relationships!
Review: Sable Barclay is a criminologist for a private laboratory who is comparing baby hair found on a skeleton with that on a baby brush. She is trying to determine if this is the hair belonging to the missing Langtry baby. The baby was kidnapped over twenty-eight years ago. The family is still searching for answers on what happened to their baby. What strikes Sable as unusual is the fact that the missing baby has her first name and the same birth date. While many would call this coincidence, Sable is struck by the similarity. You see, Sable was adopted and knows nothing about her birth parents. Together with her best friend, Eden Eglantine, she decides to visit the town where the family resides and see what she can find out. What she finds out is more than she bargains for. After meeting the family, there is little doubt in anyone's mind that Sable is the missing child. Yet, it is hard to begin a relationship with people you know nothing about. Sable decides to play it safe and hightails it back home deciding to leave well enough alone. Culley Blackwell works for the Langtry family and cares about them. Culley has had a rough life and finally found peace and acceptance within this family. However, he can't stand the pain he sees them in and goes to Sable and convinces her to return. Culley gets more than he bargains for when Sable returns and decides to stay with him. She considers Culley to be neutral territory. A person she can be with when the stress gets to be too much. Culley, who lives alone with the bare necessities, doesn't quite know how to handle this emotional woman. Meanwhile, Sable's friend Eden is a woman who has been ridicule by her domineering family all her life. She considers herself unworthy of love. Sable is and always has been the one good thing in her life. Much to her dismay, Roarke, Sable's might be brother, takes an interest in her. This pleases the Langtry family since Roarke has cut himself off from life since the death of his wife and infant child. I could on and on trying to convey what a great book this is and never capture the essence of the book. Just trying to describe the plot is almost impossible because there are so many different emotions and things happening. I guess if I had to pinpoint it, I would say the book is about relationships. Don't let the plot fool you into thinking this might be a sad or depressing book to read. There are many funny moments in this book and also some action involving Eden's evil brother. I will say this story picks up from Ms. London's previous book. However I think it stands alone. If you are looking for a book about relationships (two love stories for the price of one) with comedy and drama, this is probably a book you will want to read. As usual, I will be waiting for her next book.

Summary: Wonderful story!
Review: Sable Barclay was a criminologist. While doing some forensic testing she stumbled onto the major possibility that she was the lost Langtry baby. She took time off work to travel to Shiloh, Wyoming to quietly investigate. Her life long best friend, Eden, went with her for support. Soon Sable was in a relationship with Faith and Jacob Langtry's ranch foreman, Culley Blackwolf. As Sable slowly came to terms with both sets of parents, she also began helping Culley deal with his own difficult past. Eden Eglantine was a paleontologist. As she helped Sable reunite with her biological parents, she spent time with Sable's biological brother, Roark Langtry, looking for the bonebeds of dinosaurs. Eden understood that Roark wanted her, but not WHY. Her own parents cared nothing for her and her brother, Piers, was cruel. Piers took credit for all Eden's work and kept he on a short leash! If Eden gave into her feelings for Roark, Piers would harm Roark, Sable, and the entire Langtry family! But the Langtry family had a special heritage of some golden coins. Their ancestors watched over them. Sable and Eden were about to learn that the Langtry family protected their loved ones! **** This was like two stories in one! Two women in two difficult romances with two difficult men! Whew! If that was not enough to keep me busy, the author continued (and concluded) a sub-plot from a previous book, titled "It Happened At Midnight", of the kidnapped Langtry baby years before and the reunion once she was grown! I was delighted to read of so much happening at once! Wonderful story that I highly recommend! ****

Summary: Two Good Romances In One Book
Review: Sable Barclay, a criminologist, finds possible evidence that she is the lost Langtry baby that was kidnapped twenty-eight years ago. She knows that she is adopted and decides to confront her suspicions head on by traveling from Kansas City to the Langtry ranch in Shiloh, Wyoming with Eden, her best friend and paleontologist. The first person Sable meets is the ranch foreman, Culley Blackwolf. He is quiet, strong, and protective of the family. Sable and Eden pretend to be interested in Faith Langtry's pottery to get a feel for the family. Faith invites the girls into her home where they meet Jacob, Faith's husband and Roark, her son. After the brief visit, the girls return to Kansas City where Culley shows up suspecting who she is and telling her that she has to face this now or wonder for the rest of her life. She and Eden end up returning to the Langtry ranch for an extended period of time where familial and romantic relationships develop. Of course, there's the proverbial bad seed, Eden'd brother, who adds malice to the story. I really enjoyed the two romances and found myself equally interested in both. The women characters felt real, strong and not model perfect as many are. However, there were a few spots where I wondered if pages were actually missing because the sentence didn't continue on the next page. Also, Ms.London repeated the same phrase too close together a couple of times and I found that disappointing in a professional author. The book was sappy in places, a little far fetched and the last 30 pages were not as good as the rest of the book. However, overall I enjoyed it, but it's no 5 star.

Summary: An Okay book
Review: The book jacket sounded pretty good but this author's writing seemed so stiff and wordy - like a bad soap opera dialogue. I, like some of the other readers found parts of the book that didn't match up to the previous page - I had to make sure some of the pages weren't missing.
I don't think I will read this author anytime soon - too little time - too many better authors!!
