Evelyn loses everything a second time, when her refuge and workplace is burned down. When she was young her parents were murdered. Afraid that someone is watching her, she flees with the only other survivor, a young girl named Polly, to Mesquite Texas.
Wyatt Clark is a horse trainer and rancher, who takes Evelyn and Polly under his wing, offering them sanctuary on his ranch, where he lives with his mother and sister.
Wyatt's family welcome Evelyn and Polly with open arms, making them feel right at home. Dorothy is a good friend with literary aspirations, proving to be a true friend to Evelyn.
Wyatt is a natural leader and protector, and I admired how he doesn't always choose the easy thing but the right thing to do.
Polly is a adorable child, very helpful, and not too shy about asking for what she wants. She isn't perfect and has her moments of not being the perfect child, which makes her even more cute.
Overall, an engaging western romance, filled with mystery, faith, great relationship building, and a strong heroine. Enjoyable read, and I'm excited to read Dorothy's story next!
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
