Rosalie Weld has everything going for her—a good life and an engagement to a man who will give her more of the same.  Then she finds out her fiancé has crossed a line she can’t accept, and worse, everyone around her thinks it’s nothing at all.  Her only good choice is to leave Boston and go west to visit relatives in Colorado Territory.What she finds along the way and in Colorado itself is a world unlike any she’s known…and a man who makes her tingle just by being in the same room.  Marshal Garrett Ballinger is nothing like her former fiancé—not smooth or urbane or polished.  But that might not matter as she grows closer and closer to something that might just be love.I love a good Western romance, and this one fit the bill.  Rosalie is a strong woman—it took guts to travel across country by herself, not even knowing if she’d be welcome at the end of it.  I also enjoyed the sweet romance between her and Garrett and how it grew from their first unfortunate meeting to…well, spoilers.  :)  In any case, this was a very fun read that kept me turning the pages.  I’ll be looking for more by Oakes in the future.
