Commentary Supposing Books Coming Up Roses

Widow Kate Blakely knew nothing of love - but she knew plenty about unhappiness. She'd married young, hoping to put down roots in a safe haven, but her husband had shattered her naiveté, and made her fear for her beloved daughter's safety until the day he died.

When she first met her new neighbor, Zachariah McGovern, all she saw was danger. But Zach saw much more. He saw beauty, he saw tenderness. He knew he could rescue Kate Blakely from her past - if only she would let him.

What Zach couldn't know, however, was the price that had to be paid to save the woman he loved.

Judge About Books Coming Up Roses

This novel is historical, western, romance. It involves a young widow with a 4 year old struggling to make ends meet. She was married to a man who abused her and her daughter. After he died in a fall, she hoped to never marry again.Her new neighbor, Zac rescues her daughter after she fell into a snake filled dry well. He became her patient and her savior.

This is the only Catherine Anderson book where I would say I was truly annoyed by the heroine, Kate. The story dragged on WAY too long with her making some really stupid decisions (like saying no over and over again to Zach's offers of help and resigning herself to go ahead and be molested and abused by Ryan, her ex-brother-in-law). Zach had showed he would protect them and even with the threat of blackmail over her head from Ryan, it didn't make any sense to me that she would put her daughter

Ahh Zach!

I really enjoyed reading Zach and Kate's story!

A vintage button wreath.★★★★½ This is vintage Catherine Anderson and I just loved it! It is a reissue, but definitely holds up and remains worth the read or re-read as the case may be. I loved the characters, especially the little girl, Miranda. Ms. Anderson knows how to write a big rough and tough hero interacting with a small child. It was also heartwarming to see this gentle-giant of a neighbor, Zachariah McGovern, fall for the little mite as well as the abused, skittish, young widow, Kate

I enjoyed reading how Anderson turns Kate into Katie. As with all of Anderson's stories, the book was an enjoyable read and kept me entertained from front to back cover. I admit, it wasn't my favorite one of her books, but I suppose that's because I've never had a child and don't know some of the emotions and feelings that are written into this story.
