Sweet Carolina is just plainly..sweet.

Carolina goes out west to get some money from her dead brother's shop. First, she hates the West, the heat, the dirt, and the dirty guys out there. So when she arrives she finds out that her brother was a partner with one of those dirty guys. He tries to cheat her out of her share, so she shows him. By owning half of the shop. It doesn't take long for her to find some guys that aren't dirty, and that is when this book truly becomes sweet.

Cantrell, Montana, is the fictional setting for this series of interesting women dealing with the old west. Easy to read and very likable main characters. Has some humor, some romance, and interesting developments.

Excellent reading! Once you read the first book in this series, you will want to read them all! The story is exciting, thrilling, historical and filled with Christian values. It was a pleasure to read.

As a young person I discovered the romance of the West in Zane Grey's adventures and have only occasionally strayed into other western writers. Generally because I am incapable of sympathising with the heroine. But Mr. Bly is one of those rare male authors that can create a heroine that I can find believable. An excellant read that I still reread now and again.

I love Stephen Bly's writing. His storylines are well thought out and his characters are complex making them seem real. I lent this series to a female friend and she marveled at how empathetic he was in his understanding of how a woman thinks.
