Search for a New Dawn [Library Binding]

Barbara Delinsky (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 1, 2004

When naove, pampered and spoiled Rory Matthews first arrived in the wild Yukon Territory of Canada, she barely knew how she would cope. But she was determined to rise to the challenges thrown her way by the rugged landscape and to leave her spoiled rich-girl past behind her.
Arriving unexpectedly to join her brother on a scientific expedition, she had not prepared herself for the sheer raw power of nature she discovered there not in the beautiful wild country, but in the form of Eric, the most intriguing and objectionable person she'd ever met. She can't work him out, he infuriates her beyond belief, and yet she can't stop herself falling for his charms

4.0 out of 5 stars Love's Letting Go, April 25, 2003

This review is from: Search for a New Dawn (Mass Market Paperback)

This was a really good book of adventure and personal growth for Rory the heroine, but more importantly it was a story of love that knew how to draw back....let go....let grow...and returning to claim itself unselfishly.

Eric allowed Rory to first find herself and reach her goals of personal growth before he claimed the love he knew they both could nurture together.

From the frustrating misadventures through the dangers and heartbreaks...this couple keeps you from wanting to put down the book....and keeps you praying for their happiness.

Wonderful love story of courage, adventure and unselfish sacrifices.

1.0 out of 5 stars She's young, he's old, they are NOT a good match..., April 5, 2010

Basic, read in an hour romance, Harlequin-type. If you are looking for one of Delinsky's rich, interesting ones ... keep on scrolling. Didn't like these characters any better at the end than I did at the beginning.
