The scenery’s beautiful. Gold is scarce. Weather is fierce. And justice is harsh. But this is a small frontier mudhole, seeking to become a town, accepting the lost for what they can give, and giving strength to the weak with generous affection. A story well-rooted in history, with characters full of humor and dry wit (and laugh-out-loud dialog as the swearing protagonist strives to become a good man). Women’s issues are nicely addressed. Faith is a lowkey background to lives often wounded by religion’s harsh strictures and condemnation. And thought-provoking insights make this more than just a fun romantic read.
A tale of redemption and love, a great recreation of a great time in history, and a pleasing romance, Sierra Ransom succeeds in being enjoyable, informative, and even uplifting as well, and is highly recommended.
