This was a very sweet book. It is really two romances in one, with a little bit of mystery and suspense tossed in. This is my favorite book of hers that I've read so far.

A western romance. Jenny wondered if she could survive a day in an isolated cabin near an Indian reservation - and she needed to stay five years to make the land hers.

This was a good book. I didn't think it was as great as some of Garlock's love stories though. It seemed a bit predictable, but it had a good ending.

In this perfect romantic novel a single schoolteacher heads west, falls in love with a rancher and, in the face of forceful opposition, starts a school for Indians. When her best friend also needs a true love, the rancher miraculously produces an identical twin brother. Kate Forbes offers a gentle, delicate reading perfectly suited to the tone of the story. Her soft voice shifts subtly among several dialects and between genders without over-performing any of them. Her schoolteacher is suitably refined, her frontier woman equally feisty. The bad guys are really bad, and the misunderstood bastard shifts from despicable to lovable quite convincingly. By the time the tapes run out, you're ready, but not a minute before.
