Story is well written -- characters as screwy as people in real life.
Widow Cassandra Logan will lie, cheat and steal to give her unborn child a chance in life. Just about what women had to do in those days.

With her deceased husband, Jack Logan looking so much like Ryan Tolliver she thought she could at least give her baby a good start in life.
When she meets Morgan Tolliver and his father - ah, security if only they believe her tale - and then, wouldn't you know, the hormones kick in.
Morgan and Cassie strike sparks off one another. He doesn't trust her tale but can't argue with his father, because his father doesn't have long to live.

Then he contacts an ex-Pinkerton agent. Is her tale about Seamus Hawkins true? Did she kill this man?

Could Jacob Tolliver survive the shock if her story is false? He is still grieving the lose of his second son, Ryan.
Jacob asks Cassie to host an family barbique as she has brought some joy into his waning life. They end up having to face a prairie fire that threatens the ranch.

Excellent story - Definitely Recommended.

Cassandra Logan is a pregnant widow who is desperate. She can't find work and facing being on the streets, she schemes the Tolliver family to provide a roof over her head and a place for her child. She tells the family that their missing son and brother is the father of her child, after she notices that he bears a striking resemblence to her dead husband. Soon, she finds herself in love with Morgan Tolliver, still lying the entire time.

I enjoyed the book but had a hard time liking this woman who would continue to lie, even after she feels she is in love with Morgan. I also found it strange that Morgan, who is half indian, didn't face any racial prejudice in the book.

I had a bit of difficulty with this one. Cassandra, a widow on the run from a possible murder charge, decides to travel to a Wyoming ranch and claim to be the bride of a missing brother in order to secure a good home for her baby. But older brother Morgan Tolliver is more than a little suspicious.

What I had difficulty wrapping my head around was the fact that Morgan not only lets Cassandra stay, but falls in love with her and forgives all her deceits without question. I mean, I understand her reasoning, but a strong relationship requires trust, and I really don't see how there could be any after something like this.

Despite the obstacle, however, it was a darn good read, and I enjoyed it thoroughly.
