Review: Potential For So Much More
Rating: 3 out of 5

I was torn with Ms. Keeton’s novel and what to rate it at. There’s murder, rape, renegades and a white woman living through her wost nightmare, going through horrendous situations to only be saved by the handsome green-eyed man of her dreams, to only then become his captive.Sounds like everything I would want in a historical sweeping saga of love, drama, action, and racism. Problem being, everything seems so rushed. The novel jumps ahead so quickly the character development isn’t great nor is the story as a result. It’s very difficult to get involved when everything seems to happen overnight as timeframes seem nonexistent. For example the character of Abigail seems to go from being a teacher back home, to being kidnapped, saved and in love within 48hours.The topics broached had so much potential to make Cheyenne Moon an amazing novel unfortunately the lack of detail lost a lot of my interest.
