I enjoyed this American frontier historical romance with lots of fast paced action about a brave heroine who fights to stay alive and an adorable hero just waiting to be loved and needed. Bailee kills a man trying to steal her wagon and sheriff forces her to marry. Carter, a quiet recluse is the ...

★★★★½ I had to re-read this one because I love it so much. There are a couple minor issues that Ms. Thomas left unanswered or that I wished she had developed more; however, this is an earlier one of her earlier works, so I forgive her. For my original GoodReads review, see this link.
