About the book......Escaping the ravages of the civil war Willow must leave behind all she knows and trust her life and future of a dangerous gun fighter.

My five stars is for when I originally read this book in 1999, and I think it’s only far to keep that five star rating.

When re-reading Elizabeth Lowell’s Only His I can honestly say I enjoyed it as much as the first time around. I loved the characters Caleb Black and Willow Moran. There adventures together crossing the San Juan mountains was an enjoyable read and the author does a wonderful job describing the breathtaking scenery and mountains. One of my favourite parts of the book is Willow’s love for her horses, Ishmael and the mares, their strength carrying Caleb and Willow through the mountain passes was amazing.

This book was originally written in the 1990’s and my only criticism would be the love scenes, I didn’t feel they needed to be dragged out for nearly two chapters, back in the 90’s I wouldn’t have batted an eye at this, so feel it’s unfair to compare this book with any of today’s popular romances and sex scenes.

I read all of Elizabeth Lowell books back in the day when they were first released, unfortunately I got rid of all my paperbacks, but I definitely want to purchase them all on my kindle and re-read them all, especially her medieval series.
