Great start to a great trilogy. I love the characters in this story. Of course, I love all of Ms. Thomas' characters.

I have mixed feelings after reading this book. I didn't really care for the story; I found it frustrating that the h/h took so long to hook up, how they would meet briefly then separate not just once, but twice! I really couldn't connect with the heroine but rather I was more intrigued with the hero's life and his family. I've read some of JT's other work and wasn't too impressed, I was hoping this one would be different. However, I will cautiously proceed with the sequel because mostly I just want to find out about the hero's brothers.

Jodi Thomas' stories never fail to delight. Great Read about Austin, Texas before the Civil War.

Honest, straightforward and ruggedly handsome, Travis MaMurray is also more than a little bit busted, the result of an ambush during his service as a Texas Ranger. Beautiful Rainey Adams is in a fix of her own. On the run from an arranged marriage, she'll do just about anything to keep her freedom. The first time they meet, she steals a kiss and his horse. The second time shes an angel of mercy who eases him through a terrible fever and then disappears. When Traveis recovers hes determined to track down this intriguing woman and bring her back to the Whispering Mountain Ranch as his bride. But this renegade may be too much for even the toughest Ranger to handle.
This is a very good book, one that you pick up and don't want to put down until you're finished. It's a tale of the Old West, a handsome Texas Ranger, and a mysterious woman fleeing a terrible fate. The first in the powerful new Whispering Mountain trilogy....
This is the first in what promises to be a great new series by Ms. Thomas. Whispering Mountain is a place that many would fall in love with and never want to leave.

Jodi Thomas is a new author to me, but I will be reading more of her works. This was spellbinding story. All the elements of a good Western, pretty heroine fleeing her past and a handsome half-breed Texas Ranger torn between love and duty. However,it was the other rich characters and the many twists and turns to reach the conclusion of the story that most held my interest.
Great story! Enjoyed the characters and the plot...
