Fabulous!, May 13, 2001
This is another great book by Dorothy Garlock! From the minute Rowe meets Katy he knows that they were meant to be together. Katy however distrusts all men and will not even consider the idea of marrying.
The story follows Rowe's (sometimes hilarious) attempts to court Katy. As in all great Garlock books, there are several interesting side stories, including one involving Katy's sister and niece. Definitly recommended!

It was ok, December 24, 2004
this was my 3rd book by dorothy Garlock, and I did enjoy it, but not as much as I enjoyed the other 3. Mostly cause I found the fighting between Katy and Garrick rather annoying half way thru the book, yes she tried not to like him but enough was enough. About 3/4 of the book over and thats when the action started with his half brother and everything, so 3/4 of the book was constant argueing and rather pointless writing.
It is a good book dont get me wrong but its not the best, I enjoyed the listening sky much more then this one

Another wonderful story..., April 27, 2002
Another excellent Garlock book!! Rowe and Katy are a charming combination, as are Mary and Hank.
In the hard times of the frontier era, what would happen to two women and a little girl that are abandoned in a town, when all the treasure-seeking gold miners desert in search of more riches? With only a small derringer, how can the women protect themselves? They won't be able to stay in the abandoned town forever, and they are sure to face problems trying to get to another town.
When the mysterious bearded stranger comes into the abandoned town, along with his dog, the girls are not sure what to think of him at first. The stranger, Rowe, bought the town, with plans to bring it back to life... and a mysterious connection with Katy, knocks him off his feet.
When some drifters come into town, and Rowe witnesses them murder one of their riders, it's up to him to protect the women. From this moment on, Ms. Garlock creates one hurdle after another for these characters, and they get closer and closer as they overcome each and every one of them.
If you read Ms. Garlock's story, Midnight Blue, then you'll be pleased to read about the appearance of Pack and Mara Shannon Gallagher, and get an update on their lives. Also from Midnight Blue, is a short appearance of Mara Shannon's villain cousin, Cullen McCall. Nevertheless, if you haven't read Midnight Blue, you won't be missing anything, as Ms. Garlock provided everything you needed to know about these people, for the short appearance they made in this book.
