Summary: GREAT STORY -----
Review: I love family bassed stories! I am always anxious to find out what has happened to the families of the stories I have read.I was surprised to find out that Carleton Kearney, nearing 40, had lost his wife, Ella [although it was to be expected] this story taking place 20 years later. I again met up with Ben Kearney and his now, 19 year old son Thad and 14 year old son Jem. Wonderful characters but my puzzle begins with Serena Hull, who was born about the same year as Thad and now she is 25? and Alice was 5 or 6 before Thad was born. Ah, well, I must admit that this intrigued me constantly but in no way lessened my enjoyment of the story. I was sorry to find out that Jeremiah and Walks Dancing were killed - but happy to hear that Serena had a ranch to inherit. I loved meeting Cora Boult again - she has remained a true friend.
It being a rough and uncertain life, why are the women afraid to learn to use firearms? Some turned out to be pretty good shots. They do show the inner strength that it took to last in the rough and tumble west. Carleton showed the same reluctance to fall in love as his brother Ben but for different reasons. These brothers made great heros and I look forward to some more of her books. You should enjoy the books of these two brothers - "Wildwood" being #1

Summary: Nice easy read!
Review: Nice, easy and quick read about a woman's self discovery, determination and the love of a good man in rugged country of Oregon. Enjoyable, though it would have been better if the lives of the characters and their thoughts were better detailed. Would like to know more. This is a sequel to Wildwood by Lynna Banning.

Summary: it deserves more stars!!
Review: this was by far the most lovely novel i've ever read! it was filled with realistic and passionate situations.. believe me, this is a keeper! it was a beautiful. My only complaints are Alice, stepdaughter or not Serena did not deserve that crappy attitude from her--i'm sorry i just didn't like the girl. My second and most heartfelt complaint was the ending was a bit abrupt for my taste.. no baby coming or passionate husband-wife exchange at the end. Still it was a wonderful read! enjoy!
