Publisher's summary

When Dawson McCade rescues a woman from the hands of Dog Soldiers, he doesn't expect to nearly lose his life and his heart.

Awesome story!

This is an awesome story full of feelings… feelings that brought tears at times.
The author told this story in a way that made me feel like I was actually living it!
I enjoyed it very much as there were unexpected twists and turns.

Integrity, honor and love win again!

I throughly enjoy listening to Kim Turner's series on the McCade family. Each character is unique while having the most important things in common: integrity, strength, honor, hard working, caring, family, humor, passion, and love. Kim Turner introduces us to strong male and female characters that we both come to love and respect as as we journey back in time and experience the changing culture and life on the western frontier. She's not afraid to to show the character's strengths, weaknesses, imperfections, differing viewpoints, challenges, deepest thoughts, sorted pasts, and both the blessings and struggles that a growing family face. As the author explains details of Dawson McCade's Cheyenne clothing and Haven Oakley's lavender scented hair, I can imagine them vividly and feel their every emotion, especially their hopes, joys, pains and fears as their lives and future hang in the balance. I'm looking forward to more books in the series.

Her best story yet!!

I enjoyed this book sooo much! I’m a big fan of Kim Turner books already, but with each one I believe her stories get better and better! I do a lot of smiling when reading one of Ms. Turner’s books and enjoy just the right amount of adult lovemaking to keep the progress of the romance moving forward. But for the first time I cried big ol’ tears with the accompanying runny nose to go with it! Dawson’s Haven is Kim Turner’s best book yet and I absolutely recommend others to buy it!

Oh my!

Absolutely loved this book! The wait was surely worth it! I laughed, cried, and almost had a heart attack!!

Fascinating story- lovely narration

Loved this story of Dawson McCade. So enjoyed the characters and the beautiful love story mixed with Native American history.

Dawson Dawson Dawson

I LOVED this story, loved the characters, LOVED the Narrator. Thank You Kim and Dawson for a very entertaining book. Usually I try to spread an audiobook to 2 or 3 days. But I couldn't stop.

Dawson’s Haven

I really enjoyed this story and I like to think their were those who supported and helped the tribes. I’m sure although this story is fiction, things similar to this played out in history. I love the tight knit family and Dawson’s mom is always a great addition to the story. Fun listen.

I totally love this series.

I read the first book of this series rather by accident. It was the first time I had read a Kim Turner western. I fell in love with the characters right from the beginning. The narrator Dawson Mcbride could read a phone book and make it sound good. This is the third book in the series and I truly hope it's not the last. Very well written. You will laugh, cry, hold your breath in anticipation and enjoy every moment of this book.
