slow starter but a good read

Jessica Stanbridge sets out for Colorado with her companion Myra. Her mission is to find saurian bones for the museum that she works at. She hires a guide, Rory Burnett. His mission is to keep her away from the sacred ground of the Ute Indians. These two are not on friendly terms but there is an underlying current of attraction running between them. Who will have their mission end in success? Or will both be successful in love? Past Promises is a good read. It does start out a little slow. In fact I had to start this book two different times and was about to give up when it began to get interesting. The characters were likable and well-developed. The storyline was OK, except I wasn't very interested in the whole paleontology part of the book. Past Promises ia a book worth reading after you get past the first fifty or so pages. Don't give up because this is a very good read woth the time.

a very good read

I love books when the guy is crazy about the girl and he definitely has it bad in a rough and sensitive kind of way. I would say Past Promises is probably one of Jill's best.
