I believe this book could have been better. The story line was very good. However, I believe the author, Jeanette Oke, rushed through many of the situations in Cassandra's life (main character). She fit this wonderful fictional characters life in only 222 pages! I didn't feel a part of her life. The beginning was excellent and descriptive. As the book hits the midpoint, I felt rushed and unsatisfied. This makes me leary to read another book by Jeannette Oke.

This book was very down to earth and i thought was very excellently written. I enjoyed the western book type and the fact that this women overcame everything. It was just like a fairy tale to me and how i would one day like my life to end up!!
