5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent!, September 27, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Red Dove of Monterey (Old California, Book 1) (Paperback)
Loved the Spanish flavor of that brief period in the old Californio days before the Gold Rush which is so charmingly presented here. Alena is delightful as the gringo redhead who haunts the hide rancher who tries so hard to stay single in this land of lovers. A great heroine for a fascinating era!
