DESIRE -- sweeps across the sprawling range of prairie sagebrush and green pastures, as a passionless marriage is disrupted by a wayward woman with an aura of mystery. TEMPTATION -- mounts as David Anderson -- an awesome man with an appetite that could not be appeased by his wife -- comes into conflict with the haughty new governess. SHANNON -- is indecently beautiful -- but is she an angel or a witch? Her very aloofness could intrigue a man, stimulate him. When she went to work on the Anderson ranch friction was inevitable -- and friction could ignite fire!
Such a fun read. It's definitely a product of its time, but a great story nonetheless. So much better than current books being touted on social media. Great banter and lines that made it really fun. I'll be reading more from Patricia Gallagher!
Discovering this novel under the eaves opened my young girl's mind to grown up love stories. This story does not end as most do, which kept the story lifelike and far less than neat.
