Summary
When Sarah Jane Tremont
gets swept off a beach in southern California
and time travels back to 1888 Wyoming Territory,
the good old days don't seem all that great.
She lands on the doorstep of rancher John
Beckett, who confuses her with his sister-in-law
Sarah who left six months earlier, the family
fortune in her satchel, after the death of his
only brother.
He's got no time for
forgiveness and she's in the wrong time for
love. However, like a mountain stream that
inevitably thaws in the spring, John can't keep
his heart from warming up and his blood from
flowing hot for Sarah.
Can he convince Sarah in
time to plunge with him into the still-icy water
and to give love a chance to warm his cold
heart? Can Sarah find a way to enjoy the
pleasure and passion of the past without turning
her back on her responsibilities in the present?
***
This book has the best the
Old West had to offer, everything from the
cynical-yet-vulnerable saloon girl to the
wisecracking preacher to the good-for-nothing
sheriff. It's got characters that will make
you laugh out loud as well as long for the time
when men loved their land but loved their women
more.
