Rating:  Summary: Another "Duncan Delight!" Review: When Maggie Bright opened her cabin door that miserably cold February morning, little did she realize her life would never be the same again. As she stared at Jubal Green, bullet-riddled and bleeding to death, he mumbled an apology, closed his eyes and passed out cold at her feet.With the help of his partners, Dan Blue Gully and Four Toes Smith, Maggie nursed Jubal back to life while she cared for her baby daughter and worked her rundown farm. All would have been well, but Prometheus J. Mulrooney insisted on continuing his feud with the Green family. This forced Jubal to escort Maggie and her baby daughter back to his vast Texas ranch, where he could better protect them. Another typical Alice Duncan cast of characters abounds in ONE BRIGHT MORNING. Decent, good-hearted, sweet-spirited heroines and heroes. Bad, evil-hearted, mean-spirited villains and accomplices. This story does have occasional, brief encounters with reality as the melodrama sweeps you through New Mexico and Texas in the 1800s. You sense the villain evilly twirling his mustache while the tall, blonde and handsome hero rescues the damsel in distress. Another "Duncan Delight!" Â ~Mona Montana for Bookbug on the Web
