highly recommended

And so now we come to the story of Sloan Stewart, or as she is very affectionately called by Cruz Guerrero(I see Antonio Banderas here), the man who loves her, "Cebellina".
Sloan is the strong one. The one Rip has groomed all her life to someday take over the sprawling plantation known as Three Oaks.Through tragic circumstances, Sloan has built a wall around herself that will not be easily broken. Cruz, has loved his dead brother's lover from the first time he laid eyes on her.A secret pact that the two made in the earlier novels, now comes to light, and Sloan is forced to abide by her word. She is torn betweeen her love of her land and the kind of everlasting love a man like Cruz can offer her.

Miss Johnston keeps us captivated by Sloan's story until the very last chapter. There is also, as always dangerous villans,exciting adventure and steamy romance.The continuing story of the Republic of Texas and the move to Statehood is an interesting bit of history added to the adventure.We also learn more about Luke, the half brother of the sisters and a new character, Tomasita, adds her charms as well.Cricket, Bay and their faimilies make brief but touching appearances as well.

I couldn't put this one down. If you love romance and western adventure you'll love this one as well. "Cebellina" has become my favorite of the three sisters.Joan Johnston gave her a heart the size of Texas and her story will leave you wanting more.

So,thanks Joan Johnston, for once again taking me away to another time and place, and now it's on to the 'Bitter Creek' series to read about the modern day descendants of these three remarkable women.

Happy trails....Laurie

Loved it...Absolutely Loved it!

Very breathtaking and romantic story...I was totally absorbed in the long awaited story of Sloan Stewart, who was a very assertive and headstrong character, but yet passionate and loving at the same time. The sex scenes between her and Cruz really blew me away...once again Ms. Johnston has written herself a winner!

A great story

Texas Woman was a great story. I enjoyed it's fast paced adventure. Cruz is a wonderful hero and his gentleness toward Slone is very tender. Slone struggles to trust and love again after Cruz's brother betrayed her and left her pregnant and unwed. She gives the baby to Cruz at birth and marrys him on paper only until such time and the man who killed Cruzs brother is brought to justice, then it is to be a real marriage. This is their story of the stuggle to overcome the many things life passes our way. I was a little disappointed that we didn't really see much of the other family in this book. Frontier Woman and Comanche Woman were much more family interactive. Nevertheless, it was still a good story and ties the triology together. I recommend you read them in order. They do stand alone but like any good family history it's best to get the information in order. You feel like you know them all.

All three books (Frontier Woman, Comanche Woman, Texas Woman) are really good stories but I have to say that Comanche Woman was by far my favorite. All three heros were good men who were strong yet tender. But there was something about Long Quiet that drew me in in Comanche Woman.

This series is a keeper for me!
