This book is the first of four in the series. The other three are called The Comanche Girl's Prayer, The Saloon Girl's Journey, and The River Girl's Christmas.
Zillia's life is a complete disaster. Her mother dies in childbirth, and she's left with her terrible stepfather until he leaves and take everything not nailed down with him. Things go from bad to worse and Zillia just has to fight to survive. Without the help of her friends, she isn't sure that she could. Wylder is one of those friends, and as the years go by, Zillia starts to see him in a somewhat different light.
This was a pretty good book, even though the first third of it is pretty depressing. Things just keep getting worse for Zillia, but the rest of the book was when things started getting better. This is basically Zillia's story, so don't expect a full romance. The element is there, it just isn't as present as it usually is in a traditional romance story. Personally, I wish there had been a few more interactions between Zillia and Wylder, but it's a well-balanced book that I enjoyed.
The second book is about Soonie, a character that shows up a lot in this story. The main character for the third book wasn't in this one. The third book looks like it comes full circle and talks about Zillia and Soonie coming back together after a separation. This was a real treat. Good Book!
