Really, really nice read! I deeply
enjoyed the characters and the new (for me) setting. The officer and the Bostoner
is settled in Texas in 1845.
My
opinion about Rose Gordon's style is a bit superficial, I only read
this book, but the first approach has been quite satisfying; I'm
definitely going to read the next one from this series, The
Officer and the Southerner (which
by the way will be released tomorrow) and many others.
Captain
Wes Tucker is an american army officer of the Fort Gibson's military
base in Texas. He is honourable, protective and hardworking; he has
quite the charming sense of humour and he's extremely sarcastic.
Allison
Pearson is from Boston where she has always lived in comfort and wealth and now
she is traveling through the country to reach is husband to be, the
rich and charming Nicholas Parker, who recently moved to Santa Fe.
During
one of the stagecoach stop, Allison decides to take a rest form her
loud and annoying travel companions so she rush out the coach.
Unfortunately
when she comes back she finds out that she has been left behind, in a
godforsaken village in the middle of the Indian territory. But she
doesn't worry too much, she will take the next coach shortly...except
for the fact that the grumpy and stingy only shop owner in the place,
communicates her that the next stage in line won't come sooner then a
couple of months.
