Josephine Nordegren is one of three sisters who grew up nearly wild in
southwestern Colorado. She has the archery skills of Robin Hood and the
curiosity of the Little Mermaid, fascinated by but locked away from the
forbidden outside world--a world she's been raised to believe killed her
parents. When David Warden, a rancher, brings in a herd much too close
to the girls' secret home, her older sister especially is frightened,
but Jo is too interested to stay away.
David's parents follow
soon on his heels, escaping bandits at their ranch. David's father is
wounded and needs shelter. Josephine and her sisters have the only cabin
on the mountain. Do they risk stepping into the world to help those in
need? Or do they remain separated but safe in the peaks of Hope
Mountain?
Another enjoyable read by Ms. Connealy. The Nordegren sisters grew up without any contact from the outside world. All they know is their mountain top. They were taught how to take care of themselves by their grandparents. They've been told if they leave the mountain or have contact with anyone from the outside they'll die of fever just like their parents did. David is looking to establish a ranch for himself and comes across Jo. Then his parents follow as they are being chases off their ranch. The Nordegren sisters have to adjust to people. Jo really would like to get to know David better and find out what the outside world is like. A great story. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. I'm thinking it will be Isla and Mitch's story.
I was given this book by Bethany House Publishing via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I was not compensated in anyway.
