Onderdeel van de uitgeversreeks(en)Love Inspired Historical (394)
Renegade on the run When Cort Stanton and Aubrey Huxley try to claim the same land in the Oklahoma Land Run, Cort offers a deal--one that could help him keep his freedom. After taking the blame for his brother's crime, Cort needs to lie low, so he gives Aubrey the land for her horse ranch...if she'll hire him. Now he just has to avoid growing too close to the gorgeous seamstress, who can never know his secret. Aubrey refuses to depend on any man, even one as handsome and kind as Cort. Yet, as they work together to make her dream a reality, it's impossible to imagine life on the prairie without him. And though Aubrey knows Cort has secrets that stand between them, she can't help but wish she could stake a claim on his heart. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

For this type of book, it was fairly well done. A little slow to start for my taste.
What I liked: I liked Aubrey's determination to succeed--she wasn't willing to cheat to get the land she wanted even though she could have, she was willing to work hard as well as to work in an area she was skilled in (sewing) to pursue her dream, she was willing to take care of her brother even though he wasn't the most honest person as well as being the person who endangered her own dreams. I liked Cort's manners--he was willing to work for a woman, he took a murder charge for his brother to try to protect his brother's family, he was willing to help neighbors and to barter for work and goods. I liked that the romance between the two grew slowly as they worked together.
What I didn't like: Too many secrets. Cort shouldn't have taken responsibility for something his brother did--while I can understand Cort's desire to not be executed when he's innocent, he escaped and ran away to hide and keeps looking over his shoulder waiting for the shoe to drop. He wasn't very smart about it and probably should have changed his name if he truly was trying to hide. (It would have been easier to do back then than it is these days.) (
