Wind of the Wolf

I love how Holby has managed to continue the story of Chase and the Duncans. Although, you do not need to read the books in order. Each book stands on its own.

Book 2 in an awesome trilogy.

Do yourself a favor and order all 3 books now because once you start them, you won't want to interrupt the flow of this wonderful family saga. Chase the Wind begins with the love of Faith and Ian.....a romance her family forbids and a future that looks doomed. But Ian comes back to Faith the night before her arranged marriage and they steal away,chased mercilessly by the adamant, evil groom to be. They head west and begin their life, giving birth to wonderful twins.....jamie and jenny. That characters are larger than life. You can feel the love, share the emotions and live their dream...and of course fall in love with them. But the ex groom finds them and seeks revenge and the twins have to face the future alone, but together. "Chase the Wind" is a halfbreed they become friends with in the horrible orphanage where they all wind up and Chase becomes an integral part of the story as do others in the orphanage. All of the characters weave throughout all 3 bks of this incredible trilogy. Book 2, Wind of the Wolf is not as captivating as books 1 and 3 but is so essential to fill in those middle years in the twins lives and all the problems they encounter. It also introduces the new family they make and you will laugh and cry with those relationships and dialogue. And it explains so well the place of the wolf and the fox in the storyline which is very different and symbolic of chase and jamie's blood brother relationship. It really is the glue between the first and last book. It is so significant that jamie's son is called Fox! The last book Crosswinds is incredible.....The close knit friends they've made go east to fight in the civil war and again the characters entwine magically. New relationships are enlightening and those bad guys just won't give up! so there is plenty of action. One reviewer said that "crosswinds" is more civil war history than romance. What balogna. I have never read a series with more real love and affection than this trilogy. The civil war era is perfect for these friendships to be glorified. There is no way to review this series to do it justice....Just buy them and read them. They will stay in your heart forever.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

strong relational realism

In 1860 on the Lynch Wyoming ranch, Jenny and Chase are attracted to one another almost from the first moment they meet. They eventually exchange vows of love that both believe is forever as each one of the couple presumes he or she is the luckiest person on the earth. They marry and soon Jenny becomes pregnant. However, happiness ends when an enemy of Chase kills Jenny's brother on his wedding day. Feeling guilty and angry, Chase vows to revenge the death of his best friend.Chase deserts Jenny and begins tracking the culprit Logan. As his heart fills with darkness, his spouse wants her beloved back not this brooding stranger who shows up periodically. She misses her sibling too, but her energy is to help the man she cares about above her own life find his way back into the light of love.This story is at its best with flashbacks to a happier times as the present (and much of the book) is spent in separation. The key couple is a delightful duo, but the audience barely sees them together except in memories. This makes for strong relational realism, but hurts the romantic element. Cindy Holby displays her talent with an insightful look at tragedy on the eve of the Civil War.Harriet Klausner
