Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 06 13, 2011
The story of our Widow Woman Rachel and her true love Nick Dusqat is swift moving and power packed.  Strong as the ranch she runs, Rachel has been widowed once when she meets Nick.  Her husband was a cruel man, and Nick understands cruelty.  His father and brother-in-law were both cruel men.  That cruelty has scarred him emotionally.Rachel ends up a widow twice before she finally gets to keep Nick for herself. In between she tries to keep her ranch going by marrying yet another man she does not love.  She and her son and her ranch survive through the worst winter in history, at the cost of the horses she has bred for years and loves so dearly.The other love story is that of Nicks sister Alba and her beau Davis.  Alba shows up late in the book.  Davis has been learning and growing under Nick's tutelage since the beginning.  Their story is much sweeter than Rachel and Nick's, but just as moving.The characters are so real you come to know them personally.  It's a book you won't want to end.
