Romance Reviews Today
RENEGADE WIFE is such a refreshing heartfelt
love story to read. The characters are vibrant and well crafted.
Molly is a spitfire who isn’t afraid to speak her mind. She
is passionate about everything she says, does, and feels.
It is her forthright manner which helps her overcome some
of Kane’s more stubborn and mulish qualities. Kane, is a man
any woman would want. He is rough around the edges, but once
polished by love, he shines. He is obstinate, and refuses
to give Molly any entrance into his heart. Their dialogue
is witty, and their passion is electrifying.
The writing style of Ms. Sands is refreshing
and so well done that readers will not only read Kane and
Molly’s story, but they will feel it. The characters are lively
and the settings beautifully described. Secondary characters
are just as well written as Kane and Molly and are an added
delight.
For a Western romance that will leave you
smiling, be sure to read RENEGADE WIFE.
