I really enjoyed this book from the beginning to the end. If you love historical romance with a little excitement too you will love this book.I enjoyed it so much I have ordered the next one to find out what happens next. I love the victorian and civil war days and this was a good book for me.
Great story! Heather Graham is quite a writer!
Kristin McCahy was a fighter, struggling to keep the remnants of her family and ranch together as the Civil War raged around them.
His name was Cole Slater, and with him by her side, Kristin no longer had to fight her battles alone.

Light reading. Lots of lovemaking!
Excellent.
The author chose a riveting portion of the Civil War -- the Kansas/Missouri bloodbath. I've read little about this particular aspect of the Civil War.
Unfortunately, Cole is a very dark individual; it is hard to like him. The fact that he makes an innocent individual his mistress to ensure his help, doesn't mark Cole as chivalrous. Perhaps Cole is the embodiment of the hate and struggles going on in the Kansas-Missouri region, however, I found him too dark and forbidding to like seeing him as a hero.
It is important to read the books in order.
