"Historical page turner"
Leaving her family home in Wyoming was a very hard move
for at Kincaid. She would be leaving behind everyone she
loved and considered family. But, she couldn't bear to be
apart from her husband Ty who was going to fight in the War
Between the states. Fighting side by side with Ty were two
of their closest friends, Jake and Caleb. Cat had many adjustments to make besides Ty off to war.
She had to learn to live on a plantation equipped with
slaves even though she didn't agree with slavery. Also,Cat
has to get accustomed to residing with Ty's mother, brother
and sister-in-law. Things did not go easy for Cat and Ty. He came home when
he could but the time was never enough. With Ty gone for
long periods of time, the one bright spot for Cat was the
relationship she built with her mother-in-law. Back in Wyoming Chase and Jenny were helping Cat's father
run the ranch and at the same time raise their son and
nephew. Jenny had recently found out that Cat's father was
her grandfather. Even before this was known each person on
the ranch was a family member, including Grace,Cole and
Zane. Though, not related by blood they had always
considered each other family in their hearts. Though their lives seemed somewhat normal, there is a
sinster man that has wrecked havoc on their lives. His
damage has been done and with it he left behind both mental
and physical scars on this close knit group. When word gets
out on where to find him, this group bands together to rid
themselves of their nightmare known as Wade Bishop. These are some of the most indepth characters I have ever
read. They literally come to life on the pages and fill it
with action and adventure. Cindy Holby is never one to
candy coat the true hardships of history and she doesn't
start now. In CROSSWINDS there is never a dull moment and
although there are several stories going on at once they
all intertwine. Ms. Holby is making a mark on the romance
world with her unique gift of story telling. As always, her
books are like a breath of fresh air.
