I've read every book that Peggy Henderson has written so far, and thoroughly enjoyed them all. Teton Sunrise is no exception. I've just finished reading it for the second time, and I have to say that I enjoyed the story even more this time. And that was with knowing what was going to happen.As always there are several elements to Peggy's books. The romance between Alex and Evelyn (which doesn't really get going until about a third of the way through) is beautifully written. Peggy has a lovely way of portraying her characters' attraction to each other without going into great detail. I enjoyed watching Evie and Alex fall in love as they went through different situations together. A rugged mountain man and a feisty heroine are always going to make for a great romantic tale.The other main "character" in the book is the beautiful wilderness scenery as Alex and Evie journey from St Charles to the Teton Mountains. Peggy paints fantastic word pictures for her readers, enabling us not just to see the mountains, lakes and plains, but also to feel the heat or the cold, and to hear the sounds of the grass swishing.The story doesn't just focus on Evelyn and Alex though. There is mystery, intrigue and danger in plentiful doses. You just can't travel through that kind of country without encountering wild animals, "Injuns" and the odd bad guy. There are plenty of twists and turns to the story to keep you guessing right until the end. And we are treated to meeting up with some old friends too.I can highly recommend Teton Sunrise and am off to reread Teton Splendour now.I bought this book via the Amazon UK site
