A wonderful story!,
By Donna K. "bookcrosser" (Long Island, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Doctor's Homecoming (Harlequin Historical) (Paperback)
Much more than a mere romance novel, this dramatic saga is about a long-standing feud between two families, its devastating affect on later generations by separating true lovers, and how a baby's birth and the caring work of a woman-doctor overcame the anger/hatred and brought the families to a new understanding and reconciliation.

DEFINITELY DIFFERENT -- 16 YEARS????LATER,
By
This review is from: The Doctor's Homecoming (Harlequin Historical) (Paperback)
Emma Sinclair is now a doctor and has returned to the Montana Territory for a visit before taking up her studies at the Philladelphia hospital.
But she has trouble in facing the man who did not love her and whom she had hoped to marry. Wyatt Barlow, at nineteen had sent Emma, his best friend, away to become a doctor. Now he has a 16 year old daughter that is pregnant by Emma's brother, seventeen year old Cole Sinclair. There had always been bad blood between the Sinclairs and the Barlows since Emma's father had accidently killed a Barlow woman. Wyatt was beside himself with worry about his daughter when his ten year old son brought the lady doctor to the ranch. Emma can't get passed the humiliation of Wyatt not loving her. Soon Emma bonds with Melissa Barlow and is a great help when she gives birth. Then she must resolve the problem that Wyatt has with Cole. Melissa wants to see the father of her child. Wyatt refuses to let Cole onto his ranch. Grandpa turns out to be quite a character, he at first wants to refuse Emma's help. This is a great story - a great auther [her books are definitely keepers] What a heart-warming, loving story even if it took them 16 years to get it right. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED -- look for all of her books.

Doctor's Homecoming,
This review is from: The Doctor's Homecoming (Harlequin Historical) (Paperback)
Emma has just returned home to Montana for a visit after completing her training to become a doctor in Philadelphia. Her homecoming isn't everything she's hoped however. Her younger brother Cole has gotten Melissa, the daughter of Wyatt who was once the love of her life, with child. Wyatt is furious and an old feud betweent he families has resurfaced. Emma is thrown into the middle of things when Melissa goes into early labor and the Doc is out of town buying supplies.
I loved the character of Emma, she was such a strong figure to have persued her love of medacine in a time where women doctors were practically unheard of. She sticks to her beliefs throughout the story and I love how she interact with Wyatt. Wyatt is a typical pig-headed, stubborn rancher. He knows best so things are going to go how he says they should....until Emma arrives and everything he things gets turned around in a few of their firey arguments. The story of Emma and Wyatt, Melissa and Cole kept me interested throughout, even though you know with Harlequin it's all going to turn out alright in the end, I found myself wondering how it was going to be pulled off. A great story, but many of the secondary characters had me rolling my eyes because they were so "standard" and unoriginal.
