A wonderfully written inspirational western romance., January 31, 2008
Seventeen-year-old Noelle Kramer was filled with the hopes and dreams of first love, believing that in Thad MacKaslin she had found the man she would spend the rest of her life with. But on the night they were to elope, she learned he had left town without a word, and she believed she would never see him again. Although her heart was broken, she planned to marry another and at least have a home and family of her own, until a tragic accident left her parents dead and Noelle blind, destroying her plans for the future.
Now, five years later, in the winter of 1883, Noelle lives a quiet life with her aunt, uncle, and cousins. Her blindness has caused her to give up all her dreams of love, marriage, and children. On their way home from town during a blizzard, Noelle and her aunt are almost killed by a runaway horse, but a stranger saves them - a stranger Noelle soon realizes is Thad MacKaslin, who has returned to their hometown of Angel Falls, Montana. And although both Noelle and Thad try to deny it, they still have feelings for each other. Has God given them a second chance at love and happiness together?
This book was one of the most enjoyable historical romances I've read in a while. Fans of western and inspirational romances are sure to enjoy this story of two people who had given up on a future together but are given a second chance to realize their dreams. The love story was incredibly sweet and emotional, rather than so many romances which focus on the physical romance but neglect the emotional side of a relationship. I'd highly recommend this book to readers who enjoy a sweet and emotional romance without all the graphic scenes.

homespun bride, September 20, 2010
I honestly don't understand the bad reviews for this book. I thought it was a light ispirational read. I almost didn't get this book, even though free, because of the negative reviews. I am glad however that I chose to go with my own instincts. Ofcourse there were alot of descriptions in the book.. The heroine is blind.. We are reading about her world and how she navigates it physically and emotionally. Yes, it was a little predictable, but aren't 99.9% of inspirational romances? That's what we read them for the HEA

Repetitive. Poorly written., March 3, 2009
The story line was o.k., but completely predictable. The author repeated herself in her descriptions causing me to get irritated at the writing. I'm glad this was free.
