Awesome!

I loved this book! Made me cry at the end. Leah and Jackson were so wounded by life that one thought they would never let go of the past and find one another.

Strong characters make make a great story.

If this is an example (a weak example if old reviews are to be believed) of Wiggs' writing, I'm buying everything she ever wrote. Jackson and Leah are complicated, interesting, appealing people, and the character of Caroline is finely drawn. Great story, realistic portrayal of morphine addiction, accurate depiction of education and life of a woman doctor in the late 19th century. Picked it up on a whim, but it's a keeper.

This is what true love is all about.

What a beautiful story, beautifully told. Two damaged people who make each other whole. Yes, I cried, but I also cheered in the end. Endearing characters.

good, but not great

The emphasis on Carrie resulted in a weak character sketch of Leah. Of course, without Carrie the book probably wouldn't have held up because she was the basis of this story. Instead of the Carrie storyline, I found the murder of the Spanish/or Indian woman's brother or cousin more interesting. I thought it deserved about 4 stars, but more like 3.5. It was still a decent book though and I'll certainly read more by Susan Wiggs.
