Great story-line and plenty of action. The characters are so well-developed that you actually feel the emotions they are experiencing. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because I have come to expect good, clean books from this author and this time I was disappointed. Not only was there some cursing in this book but Lisa's announcement on her wedding day was also a disappointment.

Through Shields' words, I could feel the warmth, terror, trepidation and love of this heartfelt romance. Left me wanting more western romsnce...can't wait.
