And to be honest, the American West in the 1850's is not a period I've ever been drawn to. But because it was Amy Harmon I knew to trust her. So glad I did because it was stunning. I really hope you'll love it if you decide to give it a try!Tanya @ Girl Plus Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18357204133826428572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051174949483344057.post-43887129658087302702020-04-27T12:59:45.985-04:002020-04-27T12:59:45.985-04:00Thanks Suzanne.

I'm so fussy about any historical book I read and this isn't the usual time period I have any interest in reading about but your review and that pretty aesthetic has me thinking maybe I need to change my mind.
