When a routine rest along the trail turns into an opportunity to stop a land war between feuding brother and sister ranch owners, Alice finds herself draw into an adventure her grieving heart isn't prepared for.

I did not find this believable

I just could not get into this story, it started out good but I just don't believe a father would have sent his daughter off with two men alone over night in this time period. The characters are likable, the plot is good but I just couldn't get past the above to like this story.

I thought the narrator is great. I loved how she put humor in her voice, her character voices are great, you always know who is talking and what they are feeling. There was no repeating of words, no volume change and no background noise. I have now listened to the rest of this series and totally fell in love with this narrator. She really thought out this audio giving it emotion, making the characters feel real, she really knows how to bring a story alive.
