Charming and funny

I loved this historical romance set in Texas with a widow protecting her land an outlaw with a heart of gold.

This book is surprisingly interesting.

You get a good story from the 1800's; along with black history that we were never taught in high school. Ms. Jenkins gives you a good plot with lots of surprises along the way. And you'll see that the heroin in the story is much more then you may first think. Don't miss out on this fabulous story.

Great Story!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It gives people of color a place in history other than slaves or maids.

A must read.

I really enjoyed this story. It's funny and sad and it makes you mmm mad.
but it wasn't predictable. it was like your part of the story. well done.

Spell binding

I couldn’t stop listening. Great story with lots of twist and history. On to the next one.

An enjoyable read

A great love story as always with Ms. Jenkins. It gives one hope that you are never too old to find your true love.

SO BEAUTIFUL

I LOVE Beverly Jenkins' novels before I started listening to them. I've read almost all of them and have a good number of them. All the character's are wonderfully described and Mr. Penny's voice for each of the characters is unique and well suited for that character. I can't wait for THOMAS PENNY to narrate the rest of them. I've listened to other romances by other narrators and as of now, I don't think there's one better then Mr. Penny. I fall in love with the character's all over again. It's hard not to listen to him read for almost the whole 10 hours straight, but a girl has to sleep. lol. Can't wait for the rest of them!!! (Praying that's it's soon, because I've only got one more Beverly Jenkins to listen to now "Captured" before I've exhausted Audible's availability.)

Great Read

I enjoyed this book from beginning to end. I couldn't stop listening the reader was very engaging.

All the feels

Ms. Bev has the best historical novels out there next to my other favorite author Joan Vassar. I literally have them both on rotation. I have listened to this book at least five times now. Enough to recite the entire book. Thomas Penny has a few voices that grate on my nerves but having a man versus Kim Staunton is a breath of fresh air at times though. While it does seem like her stories have tue same plot with different characters, they are quite different. The history she gives to each book is fascinating and the genealogical aspects of her fictional characters suck me in. I find myself going back to each book while reading the blessings series, just to relive the earlier days. I’m all down the rabbit hole with Ms. Bev and these darn books. Great job as usual!! ❤️❤️

Jesse Rose

Enjoyable, in how a young man falls in love with an older woman and how their life intertwined in their childhood that made them the strong woman and train robber
