Book Description:
In Blue Belle, Montana, everyone knew better than to mess with the Claybornes. The brothers had once been a mismatched gang of street urchins--until they found an abandoned baby girl in a New York City alley, named her Mary Rose, and headed west to raise her to be a lady. They become a family--held together by loyalty and love if not by blood--when suddenly they faced a crisis that threatened to tear them apart....

Trouble came to town with one Lord Harrison Stanford MacDonald. Armed with a swagger and six-shooter, he cut a striking figure--but it soon became apparent to Mary Rose that he was too much of a gentleman to make it in her rough-and-tumble town. She asked her brothers to teach him the basics of frontier survival, which he acquired with ease. And soon he possessed a deep and desperate love for Mary Rose. She returned his affection wholeheartedly...until MacDonald revelaed a secret that challenged everthing she believed about herself, her life, and her newfound love. Now her search for identity and meaning would begin, raising questions that could only be answered if she listened to the truth within her heart....

This is a passionate love story of family and friends. The characters are a wonderful blend of personalities that can make you cry and make you laugh. It is an enjoyable, sweet, comfortable read.

I am not a big reader but I found it almost impossible to put down. I just finished the book and I am ordering the rest of the series. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
