This is the third book I've read by this author and I think it's the best. The characters were realistic and likable, although at times Lee had the patience of ten men. At first you might think that Corinne was standoffish and mean but considering her history with men close to her, it all made sense. What I really liked was that she came to figure out her weaknesses on her own and did something about them.The historical aspect of the land rush was well done and you could almost feel the pioneering spirit that Corinne was living. The desperation of missing out or the joy of getting your own land was shown how hard it could be to live a dream.The animals added so much. I caught myself smiling every time I read about the little dog in the saddle. You could feel the connection she had with him and her horse. I'm not sure of the validity of a woman running the rush alone as she did, but this story was very entertaining. The worst part was I couldn't stop thinking about a warm piece of fresh apple pie.
