Summary: Wonderful first book from a talented author
Review: After reading all of Megan Chance's novels, I was thrilled tofind this out of print book. True to Ms. Chance's form, her firstbook is just as good as any she's written. Her trademark is writing about normal people that are not perfect and don't claim to be. She writes her stories with much emotion and feeling.I found this to be a wonderful book, rich with feelings . You won't be disappointed. We can only hope that Ms. Chance's books will be re-released END

Summary: Iconoclastic Romance by a Talented Writer
Review: This book won the 1994 RITA Award for First Book. It breaks nearly every rule about genre romances. It's a book I can't forget. Ana was raised in abject poverty. She has made her way in the world of mid 19th century New York by exploiting her intelligence and her body, but she still resides in a world of violence. One night the violence touches her and she find herself needing to escape. Cain Alessandro is an alcoholic doctor. He ekes out a meager living between drinking bouts. When he is given a chance to go to California where gold has been discovered he agrees even though he will be posing as Ana's husband. Cain has no interest in the physical if it does not involve acohol. The trip, part way by ship to Panama and then by land cross the isthmus, tests both of them physically and emotionally as they face their demons. These are two people one really wants to win.
