Customer Reviews

A tale that made me feel for both the hero and heroine.

The moment Conn saw Crystal, he was taken with her, until he finds out she's hiding a devastating secret. I felt for Conn, who was disillusion with the young woman, and for Crystal, who was divided between her husband and her ruthless father and older brother. The story shows how the hold family can have over someone and how hard it can be to overcome, even when your heart belongs to someone else. As I read it, I kept wishing that would hurry up Conn would forgive Crystal, because what she did wasn't malicious, just out of fear for her mother and younger brother, but the author showed that in real life, people's feelings don't heal as quickly and it takes a lot to forgive.

GREAT BOOK

Crystal and conns love story is mixed with mistrust and betryal,but most of all with a undieing love that over comes many trials. I laughed and cried all throught this story. couldn't put it down.

Packs a wallop!

Highly Recommended Crystal Braden knows how to keep a secret. She will do anything to keep her Mother and younger brother safe; even if it means lying to the only man she will ever love. Forced into betraying Conn O'Brien, Crystal feels as if her heart is being physically torn from her body. Conn O'Brien journeys to Bushwacker to claim the ranch he thinks is part of his inheritance. Along the way he stops to rescue a fair maiden. Ever a sucker for a damsel in distress, Conn has no idea Crystal is a clever diversion. It is his misfortune to fall instantly in love with the lovely woman, which only seems to aid her cause. The stakes are high, the wages steep, and the outcome uncertain as Conn and Crystal play the game of hearts with winner take all. Evelyn Rogers tells a masterful tale of family greed, divided loyalties, and ultimate betrayal. Ms. Rogers writes with authority and the expertise of a much published author. Her characters come to life, possessing strong personalities and sensuous natures. Her research is impeccable and her dialog rings true. Betrayal packs a wallop, is hard to put down, and sizzles.
