superb Texas historical romance, Oct 29 2007
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Texas Princess (Mass Market Paperback)
In 1855 although he would have preferred not to accept the job, Whispering Mountain Ranch horse breeder Tobin McMurray knows the fee is too good to pass up; so he agrees to deliver a horse to Liberty Mayfield, daughter of a senator. He also to his chagrin accepted the stipulation that he teach Liberty to ride the steed.Upon arriving at the Mayfield spread, Tobin is shocked to find his student avoiding her cold-blooded demanding fiancé Captain Samuel Buchanan in the barn from her. As he teaches her to ride, he also in his quiet way shows her how to be strong. When someone tries to assassinate her father, Tobin helps Liberty escape. As the reticent rancher and the fearful female head to the safety of his grandfather's Apache tribe, they fall in love. However, Buchanan is coming for her with help because he wants to control the Mayfield fortune.
Texas historical romance readers will cherish the latest winner from Jodi Thomas due to the lead couple; as each has people issues. The fast-paced story line never misses a beat once Tobin and Liberty meet. Although Buchanan is too brutal to be in the running for the caring Liberty, this is a terrific Thomas Texas tale.

The long wait is over, and once again we can be drawn into the fantastic world of Texan strong-but-silent heroes who have a woman's best interests always at heart, where love triumphs and evil-doers meet the fate they deserve!When Tobin McMurray delivers a horse to Liberty Mayfield, he soon finds that the ordinary job he had hoped for has instead involved him into something he never really wanted -- romance. Complications and plot twists allow this wonderful author to shine, quickly involving readers into a wonderful story with characters so beautifully drawn that we can't help but keep turning the pages to find out what will happen next.
Texas Princess is a superlative example of what keeps readers coming back for novel after novel. Brava, Jodi Thomas!

Absolutely Wonderful!, Nov 30 2007
By L. Broday - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Texas Princess (Mass Market Paperback)
The second book of Ms Thomas's Whispering Mountain trilogy, this story features the youngest brother, Tobin McMurray. For someone who doesn't like to talk to people, he doesn't have any trouble when it comes to Liberty Mayfield. That's because she speaks the language of the heart. When she needs a rescuer, he doesn't hesitate. Through the course of the story, Tobin's thoughts are always on Liberty's safety and security, regardless of any danger he's in. He's the type of strong silent hero that I dream of having. True to the Code of the West, although he's an expert shot, he never draws his gun unless he has to and then it's with deadly accuracy. Of the three brothers, Tobin is the most sensitive to the needs of others. After his sister receives the news that her fiance has been killed, he's the one who comforts her. An especially moving scene is the fiance's burial on Whispering Mountain.This was a very well crafted, deeply emotional story of love triumphing over evil and justice for the lawless. The book satisfied me and left me wanting more. I won't hesitate to recommend it to anyone who's looking for high excellence in western romance. I can't wait to see Ms Thomas's next story in this trilogy. I know it'll be great.
