Book Description:
Even the hardest heart can be softened by love...
Cassandra Zerek is a true innocent in a wild and dangerous place -- but her indomitable spirit and gentle soul make her stronger than anyone suspects.
The owner of a Colorado mining empire, Luke Taggart's wealth and position can buy him anything, yet he has grown bored with a life of saloons, gambling, and loose women. Nothing soothes his restless inner yearning -- until he spies Cassandra, as fresh and pure as a spring morning, and vows he will possess her. The radiant, charmingly naïve young beauty seems blind to the depth of Luke's desire or the lengths he is willing to go to seduce her. But the lady is wise, with an unwavering faith in the magical powers of love. And she's determined to awaken the good man hiding in Luke's tormented heart, for only one precious gift will truly win her: his deep, passionate, and unsullied love.

This book is amazing! One minute I was laughing at the hero for getting what he deserves and the next I was ready to smack some sense into himand the heroine. The author seems to have a theme of hardened hero's and down on their luck, naive heroines.
In this one the hero is a rich bored buisnessman(no big suprise!)who falls in lust with the heroine the first time he sees her. He decides he wants her and does so seriously twisted scheming to get her. But his plans don't always go smoothly. Murphy's law definetly takes a bite or two out of him. (not that he doesn't deserve it) But in the end you find your self completely in love with the scoundrel.
If you want to read a book set in the mining days that will run the gamit of emotions, read this one!

I have always enjoyed this one by Catherine Anderson, but then again I pretty much always enjoy her books. I thought that the only downfall of the story was that Cassandra was a little too naive to be real. But, I still liked it, because after all it is fiction.

I know romance novels are far fetched to begin with, however I could not see Luke and Cassandra as a couple.

A beautiful story showing the innocent heroine & how love can change even the the wicked intentions of the one who grows to love her. A lot of good out loud laughs.
A GOOD BOOK, SET BACK IN THE LATE 1880'S. A VERY TOUCHING LOVE STORY. VERY STRONG FAMILY TIES.
This was a wonderful book. Just couldn't put it down. You've got to read it.
I loved it. I've been reading nothing but Catherine Anderson for a few weeks now and this one is right up there with the good ones.
This book was wonderful. I received it one day and stayed up late the next to finish it.
