Can two outcasts find refuge in one another's hearts? Dr. Vance Phelps lost everything in the War Between the States - her career and her faith in herself. Mae is a frontier madam, used to standing alone. She guards the well-being of the lost young women who come under her care - she just never expected one of them to be a doctor.

I wanted to like this book more than I did. It was okay, but I thought that Innocent Hearts was marginally better. The book is still plagued with point-of-view problems, often switching randomly and without warning in mid-chapter or even mid-paragraph.
I liked Vance well enough, but I thought that Mae was severely underdeveloped as a character. Does she even have a last name? I don't remember it if she does. The reader never gets to know Mae well; her past and what brought her to New Hope isn't explored much at all, and it leaves her feeling flat as a result. If the reader doesn't know enough about Mae to like her, how can Vance possibly fall in love with her, when Vance arguably knows even less than the reader about Mae?
I'll give the author another chance, preferably with a book that was written much later in her career, since I've heard such good things about her stories. But this book really wasn't all that memorable, which is a shame, because it should have been. ( )
