Beautifully rendered, Where Coyotes Howl is a vivid and deeply affecting ode to the early twentieth century West, from master storyteller Sandra Dallas.

Except for the way they loved each other, they were just ordinary, everyday folks. Just ordinary.

1916. The two-street town of Wallace is not exactly what Ellen Webster had in mind when she accepted a teaching position in Wyoming, but within a year’s time she’s fallen in love—both with the High Plains and with a handsome cowboy named Charlie Bacon. Life is not easy in the flat, brown corner of the state where winter blizzards are unforgiving and the summer heat relentless. But Ellen and Charlie face it all together, their relationship growing stronger with each shared success, and each deeply felt tragedy.

Ellen finds purpose in her work as a rancher’s wife and in her bonds with other women settled on the prairie. Not all of them are so lucky as to have loving husbands, not all came to Wallace willingly, and not all of them can survive the cruel seasons. But they look out for each other, share their secrets, and help one another in times of need. And the needs are great and constant. The only city to speak of, Cheyenne, is miles away, making it akin to the Wild West in rural Wallace. In the end, it is not the trials Ellen and Charlie face together that make them remarkable, but their love for one another that endures through it all.

So sad.

This has been the saddest book I ever finished. Wished I’d it was so sad, before I started it.

Strong bonds in this one!

The author did an excellent job of creating the balance of the mundane, the tragic or challenging and the hope and healing in relationships. I loved this listen! I felt like it was historically accurate (based on my limited understanding of the place and time). I also felt that it depicted the daily tragedies of the era, or any era, with compassion, resilience and wisdom. Mostly, I just loved our protagonists and kept rooting for them to find each other again!

Sad but good

A well done story however I like more happiness and a happier ending. I listen to these for an escape from realities. I will say it’s very well written and I am sure realistic. I recommend this title but like I said I like more unrealistic happiness

Loved the story.. sad though

I love historical fiction and thus did not disappoint. I was sad when the book ended for more than one reason.

The saddest story

This may be the first Sandra Dallas novel I have ever read. it was good, but also so very sad.

Horrible ending

Spoiler alert. Loved the book.. Until the end. I don't understand why the ending had to be that way.

A feel good book

Sandra Dallas is an amazing historic fiction writer, even more so because she isn't writing World War 2 stories that are dominating the genre right now. Her books are extremely accurate to the time period that she is writing about. This story is a nice easy read.

Sad

While historically honest, the story itself was very sad and left me longing for a better ending.

Real life

We all should know the many way of life in our world. This book just depicts a way of life that is very true in this world. But their love ties them together through many hard times.

Very sad

Didn’t end like I thought it would! Very good story though. I liked it a lot
