Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

In The Rose Legacy, Carina DiGratia Shephard barely escaped the hangman's noose thanks to her new husband, Quillan. Unfortunately, she's had a hard time showing her appreciation because he left Crystal, CO, almost as soon as he could get his freight wagons hitched up. In the months that he has been gone, Carina's appreciation and fledgling love have almost dried up, and she is relying on her faith in God to keep her going as she redirects her energy into a new businessAan Italian restaurant. Quillan is drawn to Carina but fears that his questionable past and lack of faith will impede their happiness together. He therefore revisits his past, hoping to make peace with his future by coming to terms with his abusive foster parents, and he discovers a new belief in God. But it may have come too late, as trouble at his mine, the New Boundless, almost kills Carina. Heitzmann's adventurous Westerns (e.g., the "Rocky Mountain Legacy" series) provide a crossover appeal with historical romances and belong on the shelves next to Stephen Bly and Brock Thoene.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is definitely one of Kristen Heitzmann's best!!!, October 5, 2001

"Sweet Boundless" as a sequel to "The Rose Legacy" is just the way I wanted it to be! I was really sucked into the book badly. I couldn't wait to finish it! I can actually feel the emotion that Carina and Quillan were going through. I wanted to yell at both of them for the dumb things they do. This kind of book is what I love to read. It has romance, emotional conflicts,forgiveness and a reverence to God (Signore). I also love the way Kristen Heitzmann sprinkles Italian words in the dialogue and applies it to the plot as well. I wasn't disappointed at all in this book. If you have read "The Rose Legacy" you'll want to read this book. You won't be disappointed. I can hardly wait for the 3rd one when it is released!

As soon as I read the Rose Legacy, I really anticipated reading the next book in this series; because the last book ended in such a way to where you just had to get your hands on this book to find out what happens between Quillan and Carina. I must tell you I was not disappointed with Sweet Boundless! In fact I thouroughly enjoyed it! I read this book in one day, because its written in a way that compells you to keep reading and reading and reading. I can't wait for the third book in this series! You must read this! You will really enjoy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another page turner from Kristen Heitzmann!, July 1, 2001

This book was really wonderful and a great sequel to The Rose Legacy. When I finished the Rose Legacy I had to run out and get Sweet Boundless....and I was not disappointed. Kristen Heitzmann really makes you care about her characters. The characters went through so much growth and discovery about themselves and about God in this book. There is so much romance and adventure in this book that I read it in two days! I can hardly wait for book 3! Kristen Heitzmann has become my favorite writer and I would highly recommend this series and the Rocky Mountain Legacy series!
