Kain and Vanessa are another set of characters that will crawl deep into your heart. I really enjoyed reading of their escapades together.

Kain, the stepson of the vicious Adam Clayhill, meets Vanessa and her Aunt Ellie, and cousin Henry. The threesome are determined to travel to Junction City, and meet the brother of Ellie's dead husband (whom she was only married about a month to before his death) in order to locate kinfolk for her son, Henry. With no travel sense the trio are sure for some major problems, if not to lose their lives. Kain sees no other choice then to escort them to Junction City himself... although he's already discovered his strong attraction to the red-headed, Vanessa.

Ellie's son, Henry, is a simple-minded man and one of the main reasons the trio was taking this trip were because her fear of who would take care of him after she was gone, and not wanting to burden Vanessa with his care if she ever marries. She hoped they would find some kin, that would ease this fear for her. Ellie and Henry were not prepared for what they actually did find in Junction City. It seems there is no limit to the lives Adam Clayhill has destroyed... but you'll be pleased at the outcome of this story.

The double wedding that takes place in Junction City, will reunite the wonderful characters from the previous two books of this trilogy. You'll discover what has been occuring in the lives of Logan and Rosalee Horn, Cooper and Lorna Parnell, Arnie and Syliva Henderson, and many more. This reunion is perfect for the last of the trilogy... and what happens to the two villians, Adam and Della Clayhill, will give you satisfaction as well.

Along the way, you'll love the variety of characters from the two Texan brothers - Jeb and Clay, to John Wisner, and Mary Ben - the love of Henry Hill!

This was the very first romance novel that was given to me 10 years ago when I was just 15 and I still treasure the images of the characters and the book itself. I just couldn't put the book down I have read and read this novel over and over so many times that I decided to store the book to keep it in it's original condition possible.

Anyone that enjoys the setting that this story is placed in will just enjoy reading this book I have not been able to find another that can top it. It will always be my favorite.

Dorothy Garlock proves once again that she's the queen of frontier romance. I have read this book many, many times. I laugh and cry and I am always glad to read it over again. It's the best of the best.

This book was not worth the time to read it. The main chacter was self centered and determined to have her way regardless of the consequences. I have gotten so tired of female character out to prove their independence to a fault. The romantic dialogue was just beyond belief actually comical.

It's a very good book. It was rather slow getting here, but enjoyed it when I did get it.

This is only my second Dorothy Garlock book and I am very disappointed. I love her writing style and the detail that she includes. However, I found Vanessa to be a shrew and a control freak and it became increasing harder for me to like her.

I hate when heroines, in an attempt to show their strength and independence, do foolish things like help in gunfights when their help is clearly unnecessary.

In Wind of Promise, the heroine does this three times. After the second time, our wonderful hero explained to her the danger to others that her actions were creating and I thought - ahh, now she will stop. However, she did it a third time so I turned off the Kindle and won't finish the rest of the book.

Also, our hero fell in love with her much too easy and early when she was still being shrewish, unkind and they hadn't had any true conversation.
