![]() There was lots of tension and outside distractions that kept me smiling over the course of the novel. Imagine a historical 'road trip,' where one of the participants is under arrest and trying to escape, while the other is trying to do the honorable thing. Besides the wonderful characters, it was the adventure that made Night Hawk so much fun to read. ![]() It was Ian's response that meant the most and he was viewing her with a subtle delight that put heat in her blood. And Ian was the perfect man for her with his steady and calm demeanor. The way Maggie's firey attitude was balanced with her vulnerable side was superb I LOVED her. So, wow! Beverly Jenkins knows how to write a strong heroine. Through events that start the story, Maggie finds herself in the custody of US Marshall, Ian Vance. Melancholy be damned, she was still standing, and still fighting to hold on to who she was in her heart and mind. Over the years she's endured a lot, but it was her Kaw Nation mother and Black father who shaped her into the strong, take-no-prisoners woman that she is today. Small town Kansas in 1889 would be a tough place for anybody, but as a single woman of color with no family, life is particularly hard for Maggie, who's been living a rootless, hand-to-mouth existence since she was orphaned at the age of twelve. ![]() Happy Dance! Is there anything better than finding a quality author with a huge back log of books?!! ![]() 4 solid stars! Maggie was like a kick of raw tequila. ![]()
