Summary:
Eden is a wealthy and beautiful woman living in Texas. After being hurt badly in the past by a lying suitor who was only after her inheritance, she decides that the spinster life is for her. She pours her time into the lending library she has started in her home with her own personal book collection.
Levi is fresh out of jail. In his past he was a rebellious youth with a taste for fighting. During one match an opponent was killed and Levi went to jail. While this would normally be horrible, it led to Levi's salvation and a promise never to fight again. Now he's in a new town with a fresh start. But will his past stay...in the past?
Here comes handsome, strong Levi to town and Miss Eden seems to be rethinking her "no man" decision. Will Levi pursue her? What about the nasty town sheriff? He's interested in Eden and intent on shedding light on Levi's past. Will the town turn on Levi? Will Eden be able to trust him?
Review:
I had a hard time getting into this book. In fact, I almost stopped reading it, but really did want to know what happened. However, around 75% the story really picked up and I thoroughly enjoyed the last 25%. This seems to be a theme of mine with Ms. Witemeyer's books. They just seem too long to me for some reason? It was a fun, easy read though and I love a happy ending.
