The Heart's Pursuit

Thanks to Andrea Cox's review, I decided to bump this up a bit on my to-read list and checked out the scope from the library. It took me all of two days to read it, and I truly enjoyed each minute. I like that it breaks the predictable in a number of ways, with surprising twists that keep you wondering and worrying. A delightful, clean Western.

The romance is authentic, but also not way touchy-feely, which I loved. Jared always treats Silver with the respect a lady deserves, even though she is not acting in the way a proper lady would (traipsing cross country alone with him.) They exemplify good moral values.

My only gripes: one, that the ending seemed a bit hasty; two, only one real mention of God/Christianity in a Christian novel.
