5.0 out of 5 stars excellent western romance, February 25, 2009

Nine years ago in Rancho Los Almitos, California, nineteen year old Rafe Jerry loved aristocratic beauty Dolores de la Guerra. However, he was stunned to find his Dolores in bed with his widower father Warren. The two men fight and the older Jerry banishes his son forever. Warren and Dolores married while Rafe joined the Army.

Now his dad is dead and Rafe inherits the spread. His stepmother is as selfish as ever as she considers her wardrobe more important than food on the table. He comes home to settle matters and to find a military traitor Laveau di Viere. Adding insult, Dolores has a new lover his enemy; and a son, his preadolescent half-brother Luis. Worse are his traitorous feelings for Dolores' sister Maria

No one writes western romance better than Leigh Greenwood consistently does. His latest Night Rider thriller is an exciting action-packed entry that lives up the quality of the three previous tales (see TEXAS HOMECOMING, TEXAS BRIDE and BORN TO LOVE). The cast is strong from the bitter Rafe to the innocent Luis to the shallow Dolores and to the loving Maria; while the secondary players like Bronc and Miguel enhance the deep look at the key characters even Laveau. Fans will enjoy this story of avarice and duplicity in Post Civil War California.

As always, Leigh Greenwood can still out do hisself when writing a book. Great book, enjoyed it very much. Brings some of the past in his series to the future so you can still know what happened in the later book if you haven't read the prior book.

This review is from: Someone Like You (Leisure Historical Romance) (A Night Riders Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

The writing is good, the settings well drawn, but there was something about the characters I did not believe. Both Rafe and Maria think and analyze too much. Even as they get passionate we have endless paragraphs of thinking. There was much repetition. I found the climax simply ludicrous and melodramatic beyond sense.
