OMG‼️. I love, loved this novel about Lucien O’Rourke & Samantha’s love story that takes place in Ft. Benton, Montana Territory in 1869❣️🥰. Ms Flightner has once again written an emotional & heartwarmingly captivating story of both romantic & family love & loyalty‼️👏. Our couple has lived traumatic lives prior to meeting at the O’Rourke’s warm & welcoming home, became fast friends along with his brother Niall, but all of a sudden Luc & Sam’s feelings move to a romantic attraction! Will past abuses get in the way of a lasting relationship? Will their love be strong enough to endure marriage? While winter continues, two new babes are born, & everything is looking up for Luc, Sam, & the entire family when a blizzard strikes & Lucien hasn’t arrived for dinner with Sam & the others in his Mum’s warm kitchen‼️😩.

This is a super sweet romance story between Lucien and Samantha. At first, Lucien harbored an unrequited love for Samatha always seeking her out with his eyes. He mistakenly thought she and his brother Niall were meant for each other. But after Niall put it to him in no uncertain terms that they were only friends did he feel confident enough to approach Samantha. Samatha knew she was attracted to Lucien but thought he was not interested in her. Everyone in the O’Rourke family noticed how the two stole glances at each other but they didn’t realize the other felt the same. When the two finally…finally…got it together, there was no denying their love for each other. I loved the sweet ending. Worth the read.
