"Make room on your keeper shelf for this historical western!"
One fateful night, a decade earlier, changed Molly
Hart's world forever. She was abducted
by ruthless raiders and later stolen by Indians. Molly
endured and survived a very harsh existence.
Finally, free she makes her way back to her childhood home
in Texas. Nothing could have prepared
her for the shock of seeing the reminants of her home and
three graves, one of which was hers. Matt Ryan didn't know what to make of the woman who was at
the Hart homestead. She claimed
to be Molly but he had seen Molly's body, or so he had
thought. He didn't want to relive those
painful memories that haunted him for so long. He had
always been like an older brother to her and
was devastated when she had "died". For the past ten years
he had thrown himself into fighing
for justice, first with the Army and more recently, as a
Texas Ranger. Since Molly was alone and had no where to go Matt took
her home to his parent's ranch. There,
Molly started gaining information on the attack of her
family. Stories were unraveling to disclose
some shocking family secrets. Matt was there for Molly
every step of the way. He kept telling himself
that it was only to help her find closure so she could find
the happiness she deserved. He didn't want
to exam the feelings in his heart too closely. Matt and
Molly had old demons to wrestle with,but , no matter
how hard they tried to keep their distance, it was
impossible. Fate took over and their long ago friendship
turned into a fierce love. These two characters went through a maze of emotional and
physical pain but found healing in each
others arms. The depth of this story is incredible. Twists
and turns provide non-stop action and unpredicibility.
The secondary characters come out in full force, with
tantilizing tidbits that have you craving future books.
Handsome, rugged heroes, stong heroines and a super
storyline make THE WREN a keeper. Kristy McCaffrey brings
forth the true nature of what it meant to live in the
1800's.
