Summary: WESTERN - FRONTIER FANS WILL LOVE THIS!
Comment: Genoa, Nevada Territory - April 1860.
He called himself Carrigan, rumors ran rampant that he has killed at least two dozen men and that he was the fastest draw west of anything east. [sigh!]
All agreed that he was unfriendly [grin]. He had settled on his mountain before the town was founded and he refused to make friends with any one from the settlement. He made friends with no one but would talk to August Gray, owner of the store and Pony Express station.
No one bothered him or came to his mountain, until Helena Gray.
She needed his reputation and protection of his name, as the men in town would not deal with an unmarried woman.
Jacob Henry Carrington became so bothered and intrigued by the memory of Helena that he came down off his mountain in time to save Helena from the unwanted attentions of Seaton Hanrahan [the opportunist] I loved his line, "I will take a newspaper, and I'll take you for my wife." WoW! And the deal for her and her sisters property.
But Helena took over after their marriage in finding him face down in the snow with a bullet in him. Boy, did that lead to some physical attraction, eventually. She went a long way to blowing Carrigan's intentions of leaving her alone - he would be leaving in 6 months anyway.
Helena needed the marriage to be a business proposition so that she could protect her secrets. Her secrets colored her relationship with her sister whom she loved very much and was afraid to allow to grow up. Emilie, of course, at sixteen was very attracted to the pony express rider Thomas McAllister.
It took Jake to convince Helena to realize Emilie was growing up and she needed to loosen her restrictions or lose her sister.
Bayard Kimball was doing his darndest to convince Helena that Jake was at the bottom of her troubles. But a week spent rounding up her horses with Jake soon put her marriage and secrets in right order. Soon Helena got Jake to reveal his secret and then all hell broke lose. Whee! What a story.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED -- Don't pass this one up. You May Have to read it again!

Summary: Wonderful love story
Comment: I became a Stef Ann Holm fan when I read her Brides for All Seasons books and am now going back to read her earlier books. CROSSINGS is a wonderful western romance. Helena Gray needs a husband so that she can keep the Pony Express station her late father had owned. She's been asked by several men in town, but because of a secret from her past is reluctant to marry them. Instead, she asks Josh Carrigan, a hermit with his own dark secret past to be her husband in name only. He agrees to stay for 6 months in exchange for a piece of land Helena's father has left her. As time goes on circumstances force the two together and eventually their marrige becomes real. Though, as in any romance there are alot of ups and downs on the way to true love. There are also alot of interesting secondary characters in this book - including Helena's sister, Emilie, the pony express rider she loves, and the powerful judge who wants Helena for himself! It was very heartwarming to watch two people who both thought they would never find love again, come together and create a miracle!
