Summary: WELL WORTH READING!
Review: Although dead, John Colby's character was definitley in question.
Rose Colby was married to John for near on nine years and was running a ranch that didn't seem to have many riders near by.
Bayard Hudson was certainly a pushy, ambitious man and was very sure that he could have Rose for his wife. I wonder what he planned to do with her son, Mason?"Latigo" was thirty three and half Chiricahua Apache and in dire need of John Colby's help. He knew he was taking a chance in approaching John's ranch but it would be hard to survive in the desert wounded as he was. Rose was not sure that she should befriend "Latigo" as there was no one around to protect her and Mason. She did prove to be a stubborn woman Burford soon showed up with his vigilante riders and accused the half-breed scout of murder. Rose was already forming her own opinion on whether she should help John's rescuer or not. And Burford sure didn't leave Rose with any good opinion of him when he tries to force her to agree to marry him. Yuck! The plot thickens when "Latigo" hints at the dangerous "Ring" and that John may have had some connection with it. Rose had to know the truth for the sake of her son and thereby begins an appealing romance. Cover does not do "Latigo" justice. Does'nt look like a half-bred Native American. Surely the book companies could scout around and find some decent, rugged looking Native Americans to use on their covers. Definitely RECOMMENDED - you will enjoy the story line and the characters and tidbits of Native American folk lore.

Summary: Wow
Review: I know officially love Elizabeth Lane and plan to start stocking up on her novels. While the murder mystery was blantantly obvious, her characters were filled with life. The culture clash between a half-white, half-Apache man and the white widow to a rancher was beautifully done. Though it was occassionally frustrating when their stuborness and pride came between them, this seems to be a common theme with romance and was not difficult to ignore, so beautiful was the story on the whole. While "Shawnee Bride" was better, I would still recommend this story for anyone seeking a good historical romance. I love the ones with the culture clash like this one.

Summary: Great characters. Love the story!
Review: I wasn't looking for a mystery/murder. This romance historical
was great with poignant detail to era and area. If you are looking for strong frontier women, Rose Colby steps in perfectly.
She gives aid to a wounded man, Latigo and later learns that he is suspected of murder. Great, swift-paced tale.
