A really great story!
I thought this was a well written story. It is filled with lots of history and some
frontier realities
. It has the makings of a wonderful story with strained feelings of love, old enemies and betrayal. The main characters are Creed and Cricket but the story is also very full of Crickets two sisters, her father and Creeds brother Tom and his wife Amy. It's a book that, once started, is very hard to put down. I highly recommend this book. It's a keeper! I am looking forward to reading about the other two sisters in Commanche
Woman
and Texas Woman.
Texas' Frontier
Cricket's father prepared her for the life in the young republic of Texas. Cricket could take care of her self and had no use for men. Jarrett a Texas Ranger rescues Cricket from the Comanche Indians. Then the sparks fly. This is a fast moving book that involves a scheme that may involve Crickets' sisters. You will keep turning the pages of this book. By Ruth Thompson author of "The Bluegrass Dream" and "Natchez Above The River"

What an awesome series!!!
This is book 1 in an awesome series about the Texas
frontier
. Word of warning, if you aren't into romances, this probably isn't for you. I love that the
woman
of this novel is strong willed and doesn't take any crap from men. Is good to see these aren't wimpering bimbos. When you have finish this book, be prepared to read the other two in the 'Woman' series.
