Summary: Chalk up another one for Jill Gregory!
Review: All right, so maybe my motivation for buying this book was rather silly, but it had the model John desalvo on the cover, who is the most gorgeous man I've ever laid eyes upon. As I delved into the story, I couldn't put it down. I thought this book was more about the human condition, than a violent western. It's interesting to see these characters take on very human qualities of saying one thing but really meaning the other. For example, Maura claims she is marrying Quinn only for the baby's sake, but soon she wants more even though she must deny those yearning according to the pact made between them. Quinn, on the other hand is not as cold as he makes himself out to be, he can't help but want to be fiercely protective of Maura's vulnerability. It is because of the way the characters developed that made the book realistic. Actually, the violence in it was overdone. Quinn kills at least six or seven people throughout the course of the book. The deaths he inflicted raise totally different questions. It is interesting to see how an author can make the "hero" kill, but the deaths caused are for supposedly justifiable reasons. Well, I guess this is what makes romance, and what keeps the novel entertaining, so who am I to judge? I thought overall, this was another fantastic novel for Jill Gregory.

Summary: Great story !!!
Review: I enjoyed this book very very much. This was the first book by this author that I have read and I have already ordered several more. The book moves at a fast pace and the characters are likeable and beleivable. If you havent read any of this Authors books I would compare her style to Norah Hess or Rosanne Bittner.

Summary: Great story !!!
Review: This book was thoroughly enjoyable. The hero was strong and very sexy and the heroine resilient considering the situation she found herself in. Despite a previous review that stated the 2 main characters did not spend alot of time together, they spent very little time apart in this book. There was approx 1 chapter between when Quinn left Maura at the hotel and she found him later at a saloon in Whisper Valley. Maura did not fall in love with Quinn immediately and her decision to confront him, based purely on a decision on what was best for the unborn child was quite selfless and was an indication of her strength of character. That Quinn was initially belligerent when she first accosted him in the saloon was not unexpected and his treatment of her after the suspicion faded was very thoughtful and considerate. Really there was very little that I could fault him in his treatment of her - giving her money to buy a new dress to get married in, waiting aroung in Hope to set her up comfortably at the ranch, teaching her how to dance then taking her to the dance. It's great seeing a strong and capable man being so thoughtful and caring and eventually so loving towards a woman and Quinn certainly was that. I would recommend this book to anyone.

Summary: Emotional, tender
Review: Though I found the plot predictable, I became very involved with the main characters, Maura and Quinn. I am always interested in the developing relationships of a couple, how they got to be as they are and how they can become more together. I found this book to be right on in this area. I especially liked how the townspeople came together to aid Quinn and how Quinn finally accepted their friendship. Kudos to Ms. Gregory.
