3.0

Kinda slow moving, not the most intriguing plot, and I kept getting distracted by all the POV switches. But I loved the characters.

6 stars. This book was so sweeping and truly what I would call an epic historical romance. I loved this from beginning to extremely satisfying end. Once I picked this up I could not stop reading. I had a hard time putting my kindle down to anything else because I just wanted to stay in this story with these characters.

The writing is absolutely beautiful and the story is paced very well. I was able to read this in a night because it was so addicting. I loved learning about the Lakota culture. The characters all felt so real and well developed. Anpo and Kathleen’s story is absolutely beautiful with some heartbreaking moments along the way to their happily ever after. They are both such strong and likable characters with a beautiful love story. I cannot express how much I loved this book. I genuinely have no words but I do want to read it all over again already because I want to stay with these characters. I adored this so much and I would without a doubt recommend it if you’re looking for a beautiful love story.

5 Stars - I am on a roll! Loved this one too.

I am a sucker for historical romance. This one is a little different as it takes place among the Lakota in the late 1700s. I really enjoyed learning about Anpo and her way of life. How cool would it be if european culture revered two-spirited people like the first nations people do. While there were a few tough bits to get though (nothing is graphically explained by you know Kathleen has a very rough time with the first Indians that capture her), once our MCs meet its a pretty mellow ride until the angst. Ugh... My heart was breaking for them both, but it all turns out ok in the end.

Highly recommend for fans of slow burn soul mates and historical romance with First Nations history and culture. I will definitively be reading this one again.

8/30/12 - I'm starting the published version today.

I freaking love this book. I'd go 4.5. Really. I do love it. I'm rereading the online version again now.
