Story4.5 out of 5 stars 305
Banished by her grandfather at the age of 18, Spring Lee has survived scandal to claim her own little slice of Paradise, Wyoming. She’s proud of working her ranch alone and unwilling to share it with a stranger - especially one like Garrett McCray, who makes her second-guess her resolve to avoid men. Garrett escaped slavery years ago and is now a reporter in Washington. He’s traveled west to interview Dr. Colton Lee for an article, yet it’s Lee’s fearless sister, Spring, who captures his interest.

Love Beverly Jenkins
I'm a huge fan of Beverly Jenkins books. This book is good but not great. The story was a little slow and narrator's voice was dry. Jenkins is usually very good at coordinating her books. But I'm thinking Rebel is sequences before Winds of the Storm(Archer's story), because Raimond's baby girl Desire is 2 in Drake's story and 5 in Archer's story. I had to go back and read Archer's story to make sure Drake was not married, which he wasn't. And if Rebel was sequences after Winds is the Storm why wasn't Archer's wife Zahra mentioned in the story. I think this is why I gave the books 3 stars because she didn't coordinate Drake's and Archer's story together.

Lovely story and storytelling
I don’t generally read historical romance, but this story was truly enjoyable. I appreciated the lack of violence and the simplicity of a black romance during the years of reconstruction. It was tender, while also coming through as authentic. Well done.

A Book Looking For A Storyline
I was disappointed because everything I've read from this author has been quite satisfying. It ragged on too long over trivial scenes. The sex made no sense. That was back and forth yet, the main character acted like a school marm after a night of abandon. No resolution on the soldier who attacked her. Yes, she hit him with a shovel, but why didn't her brawny suitor ever teach him a final lesson. Whatever happened to the mean spirited old lady who kicked her out. It just seemed like lots of boring vignettes that really didn't make a story. Or like a college paper that must be so many pages and one searches for unnecessary fact just to fill up space.

Loved it!
I love how I can dive into a Beverly Jenkins period story, get swept away, and learn a few things. I found myself going to the internet to research some events and topics for further insight. I appreciate that the protagonists are strong and the stories are just as much about self-discovery as they are about love. The romance isn't gummy and over-the-top. It all flows perfectly.
I can't wait for the next book in the series to be released. Kudos to the narrator as well!
