Summary: #2 of Trilogy -- ACTUALLY A MINUS FIVE
Review: ROSE rates a five because of the ability of the author to tell an excellent story with excellent characters.

With the first surrender to hormones I will give a minus as the story lost its interest power and I couldn't wait to be done with the book.

Kase, as Analisa's 21 year old son did not come across as an exceptionally strong character. Not really weak but not as powerful as I was expecting. But then he is still young.

Rosa was fascinating, her strength of character, or stubborness helped meld her character into one of beauty and tolerance. That is until she put aside her upbringing to surrender to hormones and hop into bed with Kase. And why didn't she get pregnant? Especially after three or four tries?

I was glad to see Zach Elliot show up, as he proves to be a friend to Kase and Rosa. I thought sure he knew of the circumstances of Kase's birth. Just goes to show that secrets do tend to destroy.

Do not forget Quentin Rawlins of Mountain Shadows ranch, he was a friend of Caleb's and hired Kase and interested in Rosa, also concerned about the prejudice she would encounter if she considered marrying a "half-breed".

I was very disappointed to find out that Caleb and Analisa only had the one daughter. For shame M. Landis. This was a great couple and deserved better, family wise.

I thoroughly enjoyed these couples but will pass them onto another reader. Recommended --M Not to say that you should pass them up -- excellent read.

Summary: One of my favorite Landis books
Review: This has to be one of my favorite Landis books. I have read Rose many times. It is about Italian Rose who goes west with her husband. She enbarks on an journey that is unforgetable. I really like it.
