The Great Montana Cowboy Auction by Anne McAllister

 

I found so much to love about this novel. The characters are full of life and all the emotions it contains. Mothers and daughters, cowboys and a movie star fill the pages with their doubts, insecurities, fears, and love.

The Springs by Anne Britting Oleson

 

Such a beautiful novel full of emotion and written so lovingly as to bring tears to your eyes and sighs to your heart. The characters are filled with overbearing grief, needing each other but in denial to how the pain could be drawn out and how they would be able to see the light of day. I have not read anything from this author before and will be adding her to my favorites list.
