After her mother’s death, Faith Hardwood’s father is determined to leave the memories behind. On the train to Denver, a rough-looking man captures Faith’s attention; the stranger compels her in a way she’s never known. When robbers beset the passengers, he comes to her aid. The damage is done however, as they are robbed of every penny—the money they needed to live on. Owen Birch, the stranger, has gambled his way to success, owning several hotels and saloons, including the Inter-Ocean Hotel in Denver. Traveling on business, he encounters a young woman, Faith, who takes his breath away. He can feel the weight of her interest, as her dark, expressive eyes linger on him. After the robbery, he generously gives Faith and her pa money, because they have lost everything. Two years later, life in the city isn’t what Faith had hoped it would be. Her pa’s rarely sober and a gambler, while she is a saloon girl, working for tips and hoping for a better life. At the faro table one evening, Faith sees the man she met on the train. He too recognizes her. Although fate has been unkind, Faith senses her luck is about to change. However, Owen isn’t the sort of man to settle down. He prefers to keep things simple. He offers to take care of Faith, to spoil her as his mistress, but this isn’t what she wants. She’s in love, and, if she can’t have all of him, then she wants nothing at all.

Truth be told, I tried to keep my expectations low, but wow! It's pretty amazing. It's the second in Ms. White's "Brides of the Rockies" series. The first book is Cassie (Brides of the Rockies Book 1). As far as I can tell, to date there are only two books in the series. In this story, there is a pretty big age gap between the characters; Faith is eighteen, Owen is thirty six. I usually prefer that there not be such a huge age difference between the h and H, but in this instance it didn't bother me at all. The age difference is referred to a few times in the story; for instance, Owen makes mention that he's too old for Faith, but it isn't really an issue for the couple. I really enjoyed Ms. White's writing style and for an for an e-book, the editing is par excellence. I can honestly say that I don't remember noticing a single misspelled or misused word. That's extremely rare with e-books, even those that are not self-published.In addition, the characters are all well developed and relatable. Faith is a wonderful heroine. She and her father travel west to start anew after her mother's death, but things don't turn out the way they expect, and Faith has to live with the hand which she has been dealt. She's strong, smart, determined, and loyal. Owen too is a wonderful hero. He has no interest in ever getting married; this determination stems from a bad childhood. Nevertheless, when he meets Faith he just can't resist her; he wants her with him forever. Unfortunately, the arrangement that Owen wants is not one with which Faith could ever be happy.The most amazing thing about this book is that it's written in the first person, and yet I hardly noticed. I hate first person account stories and typically avoid them like the plague. There have been a few instances where I've read a book told in the first person, and I've loved it, so I do TRY to remain open-minded; although it is hard. In this instance I can honestly say that it didn't bother me at all. As a matter of fact, although the story is told in the first person I never once felt as though I was missing out on what was going on with the rest of the characters. I still felt as though I knew Owen, I felt in tune with him and why he was the way he was. In my experience books told in the first person usually suffer from the huge drawback of not allowing the reader to really get to know any other character aside from the one who is telling the story...that did not happen here. It's magical the way Ms. White employs first person. I haven't experienced anything like it in a very long time, if ever.As stated in the book blurb, Faith and Owen meet when they are both traveling west by train. Faith is fascinated by the attractive Owen and finds her eyes being constantly drawn to him during the journey. When Faith and her father are robbed of all their valuables, Owen graciously gives them some money to prevent them having to live on the streets. Two years later, Faith and her father are now living in a small Denver town. Life is nothing like Faith expected; her father is a drunk and spends his time gambling away what little they have. The two live in a tiny room in a boardinghouse and Faith is forced to work as a saloon girl to eke out a living for the two of them.For those of you who are wondering, Faith is still an innocent. Her job entails bringing drinks to and providing companionship for the saloons patrons, no sex. Two years after the two had their first encounter, Owen shows up in the saloon where Faith works. They become reacquainted. Owen has never forgotten the young woman who first captured his attention on the train. He is captivated by Faith and asks her to be his mistress, but Faith wants a husband and children. Due to his horrible childhood, Owen doesn't think he'd make good husband material, plus he has no interest in settling down; he likes to travel around. Despite the fact that Owen assures Faith that he wants her with him forever, the two find themselves at an impasse as Faith is not willing to give up on her dreams...she's already had to give up so many.The story that unfolds is a beautiful one. Owen and Faith are wonderful together, and even when Owen was bent on gaining Faith as a mistress I was never in any doubt that he truly cared for her. Eventually, of course, all works out and the couple do achieve their HEA. FYI there is a love scene, but it's after marriage and there are minimal details provided; it's essentially clean. I loved this book, so much so that I immediately went and checked out Ms. White's Amazon page. Imagine my delight when I discovered that she has a few other books available for free here on Amazon. Oh, I also remembered that I've read one other book by her before A Mail Order Bride For Charlie (The Carson Brothers of Kansas Book 1). I read that book over a year ago and gave it 3 stars. This one, IMO, is a much, much better story.BTW for those of you who may be suspicious about the fact that my review is the only one so far and it's such a glowing one, no I am neither related to, nor acquainted with the author, nor was I given a copy in exchange for an honest opinion. I came by my copy on my own, free, compliments of searching the freebie section on Amazon. LOL Happy reading!

Drawing me in a firsthand witness to everything as it unfolds. Passion with some steam but written well enough to kept us wanting to linger with Faith more as her life unfolds and unravels... I so enjoyed every page!
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Sweet Story By C Patterson This is a sweet story about Faith and Owen. Faith's mother has died and the memories have forced her family to go west. Hard times follow but Faith makes the best of it as well she can. Owen has not forgotten the dark-haired beauty that he met on the train. He seeks her out as sparks fly. A sweet western historical novel.
