From chapters.indigo.ca:
Casey Stratton has set off on her own in the American West, relying on
her courage and inventiveness to survive. Damien Rutledge, III, is a
society man from New York, thrusting aside his life of refinement and
sophistication in favor of a more basic need--revenge. Their two worlds
collide as Casey and the Eastern gentleman chase the same outlaws, and
their passion flares uncontrollably high in recognition of each other
and their burning love.
My opinion:
I loved this heroine. She was born and raised in Texas, and was kind of like Annie Oakley but sexy in addition. I even liked her father, who was raised by Indians and stubborn as a mule. But the hero drove me crazy. Always jumping to conclusions and being a pinhead about pushing himself on the heroine physically and then being a pinhead again by not daring to speak frankly. Arrrgh! That said, the book was better than OK, mostly due to the heroine, but…I will give the hero some credit.
