Thoroughly enjoyed reading this. Hard to put it down. Characters are so well written you feel connected to them. I cannot wait to read another book by Dorothy Garlock...never disappointed. I love her ability to write a mystery into a romance so intricately.

Cannot say enough about this Dorothy Garlock's stories who deals with relationships and heart stopping action in very believable situations. You never want to skip reading a paragraph or page because she is providing way too much back story. She fills in the gaps along the way which keeps the reader interested and turning pages. Great storyteller.

This was a fun look at the life of a girl who went to Oklahoma to help her ill aunt run a hotel. She found love and lots of adventures. The story was a pleasure to read.

I really enjoyed reading this series . It was one that I never wanted to put down. I was always curdled up with my book and wanting to know what was going to happen next. Just be sure you read the first one first and then the second and the last. Otherwise you will know what's happened and they won't be as good.

Love all of her books

All of Dorothy Garlock's series are excellent. I always read the last in the series wishing there were more.
My Mother grew up during this time and in this area so, it is easy to imagine her in the stories.

I have always enjoyed Ms Garlocks books, but was a bit disappointed in this one. The "h" was too silly.
