Review

"An irresistible hero, a remarkable heroine, and a wild ride...Don't miss it!" -- --Megan Chance, author of A Season in Eden

About the Author

In the authors own words...

"I firmly believe in two things: Life is too short to waste cleaning house and every soul has a mate. Thankfully my family has become quite adept at wielding a broom and dust rag, because it gives me more time to devote to finding perfect mates for my characters.

"Even as a child, I was deeply fascinated with the 19th century American West, and often dreamed of living at the Ponderosa or in the Little House on the Prairie. So when I began writing in 1990, it seemed only right that I tell stories of the era -- of cowboys, gamblers, mountaineers, lawmen -- and the spirited women who capture their hearts. My work has been nominated for numerous awards, including Romantic Times Reviewers Choice and Romance Writers of America's coveted RITA award, and I am humbly grateful to my fans for sending my fourth novel, Wild Cat Cait, into four printings. Mustang Annie is my sixth historical romance.

"When I'm not playing matchmaker for my imaginary friends, working at my "outside" secretarial job, or carting my brood of four around to their various activities, I avoid housework by dragging my family on research trips, watching football with my husband, making a dent in Mount To-Be-Read or surfing the net."

The horses are captured, then the unforseen happens, changing their plans. Does Brett know that Annie is a wanted horse thief? What about her past is troubling Annie? What secrets does she hold close to her heart.

This is a well written, interesting story and best of all we have a strong heroine and a really sweet, once you get to know him, hero.

All's well that ends well, but read this story and find out. You will enjoy it.

This review is from: Mustang Annie (Mass Market Paperback)

Brett Corrigan hired Annie Harper to capture his ranch's runaway horses, not knowing she was the mysterious "Mustang Annie" who disappeared after experiencing a shameful, embarrassing event in her life. Because of it, Annie had decided love had no place in her life. Brett had decided love had no place in his life, either. Though he was determined to save his ranch, there was something about Annie which changed his mind. Rachelle Morgan's writing has improved tremendously since Wild Cat Cait. The juxtapositions between Annie's past and present lives are very nice here. Brett is sympathetic but doesn't have quite as much depth as Annie does. The balance, however, is quite nice, and this book is definitely one for the keeper shelves.

This review is from: Mustang Annie (Mass Market Paperback)

If you like frontier stories of people who overcome hardships, you'll love Brett and Annie as they struggle against their pasts and the attraction they feel toward each other while following a herd of wild horses. Ms Morgan created great characters who tug at the heart strings--an adventure, a romance and a two hanky read. ~ Romance Reviews Today ~ Coming Soon
