Rating: Summary: Slow at first, but ends on the edge of your seat! Review: The beginning of this book is a little slow.. the plot takes its time in developing. But, it turned out to be a good thing, as it was one of those unpredictable plots, a rare thing in romance novels, christian or otherwise. Soon, you get sucked in and start yelling at Carina for the stupid mistakes she makes, and waiting for her and her hero to get together properly.It ended in such a way that I am waiting impatiently for the sequel.. I have to wait until MAY??!!

Rating: Summary: This intense and earthy story brings spiritual awakening Review: This book begins as though the pages are black and the letters are light gray. The words are gray because Carina's polished world has been tainted and, yet, hope remains. Her stubborn and independant nature leads her to a place where her hopes are dashed (literally and figuiratively), i.e. the background black. As all humans, Carina tries to make her own way, only to find she cannot go it alone. To live fully requires interdependance with God and people. This lesson comes harshly. I highly recommend this book to mature readers as it contains violence. A violence born of human nature not seeking God.
Rating: Summary: A Real Page Turner, Leaving You Begging For More Review: This book has it all. It seems that Kristen Heitzmann's writing becomes more intriguing with each new book. The book has the perfect blend of faith, romance, action, and conflict. I can not wait for her next one. This is the kind of book you want to read in one night but also want to relish every word over again. I strongly recommend this book to anyone that enjoys historical fiction with a touch of mystery, action, and romance.

Rating: Summary: GREAT BOOK AND SERIES Review: This book is awesome, took a chapter to get into, but once you're hooked you can't stop reading. If you like this book you need to read the next two in the series, they're great too!
Rating: Summary: I'm hungry for more!! Review: WOW!! Heitzmann hit the bullseye! I can't even begin to explain how much I completely enjoyed this book. It's got a simple story that becomes a life or death tale for the heroine, Carina DiGratia. My favorite character in this was Quillan - he's dark, mysterious, handsome(so Heathcliff!), but on the inside, tender and feeling. Anyway, Carina has just left California - her home, and also the home of her fiance, Flavio, whom she had just caught with her sister, Divina. She flees to Crystal, Colorado, a small mining town she has high hopes for, and a place where she hopes to forget her sorrow over Flavio. Anyway, right when she gets to Crystal, she is severely dissappointed - a roguish freighter named Quillan Shepard pushes nearly all of her belongings straight off a cliff, someone takes over her house, and she has no money. Even worse, the goody goody of the town, Berkely Beck, likes her. Mr. Beck you'll discover, is not the kind gentleman that first greets Miss DiGratia, and has his own dark secrets that threaten the town, and Carina. Quillan, however, has a different story. His true self hidden by a dark and forbidden past, he appears to be quite the scoundrel, but later on, he and Carina are to find themselves struggling together to save Crystal. Here are some questions that might be stumbling along in your mind: What is Beck hiding?? Do Quillan and Carina ever fall in love?? Are they able to save Crystal?? READ THE BOOK & FIND OUT!
