Review # 1 was written on 2017-08-28 00:00:00 Kristen Kern Amethyst Colleen O'Shaunasy goes West in search of her father's heir. There, finding Jacob she discovers shocking news. Major Jeremiah McHenry, retired Army, returns to the Dakotah Territory. Will Amethyst and he find love? What a great ending to this series. I've enjoyed each book, this one tying everything together. The adventure of riding a train will always captivate me. Reminds me of the 1880's train in Deadwood South Dakota. We've taken it several times, and each time it just gets better. Life in the Dakotah's, one had to find their own entertainment. People coming together made for great friendships, something missing in today's world. A house raising, teaching a calf to drink, tending to the cattle, just a few things one gets to experience while reading this book.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-11-23 00:00:00 Chris Davis I wish we could do half stars, because I had a hard time choosing between 3 and 4 for this one. The story is well-written and interesting, and I loved all the historical detail. I did enjoy it. On the other hand, I feel like it's not really Amethyst's story: the description is misleading. Most of the romance between Amethyst and her hero happens off page while other characters' stories are being told. It almost felt like Amethyst was an afterthought. Since I hadn't read the other books in the series, those other stories were not as interesting to me and just felt like an interruption to the story I had chosen to read. And as I stated, most of the romantic and character development between Amethyst and Mr. McHenry happens off page, so it wasn't really that satisfying.
