She really brought the story to life - and it wasn't easy to do as there were three main characters (one of them being a three year old child) and a variety of secondary characters.

I have not read the physical book yet, but the audio version was beautifully narrated by Hayden Bishop.

The consent, communication and tenderness in these scenes are what take them from merely sex to the most intimate of lovemaking. One in this book, and one in Perfect Rhythm. I am a die-hard romantic and Jae has written two of the most beautiful love scenes I've ever read. It was fascinating, it was impressive, it was exciting, it was frightening and at times utterly beautiful. The detail was so amazing that it felt like I was riding right along with their wagon train from Independence, Missouri to Oregon.

The painstaking research that went into this was apparent and I was completely riveted by the story. HOW did it take me this long to experience this book?!? I'm still making my way through Jae's published works and after 11 of them so far, I have to say that this is in my top 2 of hers (the other being Perfect Rhythm) and way up there on my all-time favorites list.
