about this book: This is book 3 of the Hearts of Hays series. I don't put the series numbers on the covers because I don't want readers to think they are continued. They are all stand alone stories and what connects them is the locale and the reappearance of some of the characters. Yet, each book features a different hero and heroine and you don't necessarily need to read them all to enjoy just one of them. There is nothing in any of the series books that would cause you to feel you are missing something because you didn't read book 2 before reading book 4.

Cassie is Jesse's sister the male star of "The Final Vow". This book is her story. Cassie is a strong but feminine character who is as capable a cowboy as her brother. She can brand cattle, mend fences and do everything any cowboy can do. She only wears dresses on special occasions and is usually found in pants and shirt with her blonde pigtails hanging over her shoulders.

Silas Martin has found a place in Cassie's heart and he courts her for three years. Back then that was cause for gossip and Cassie knows that it they needed to take the next step in their relationship. However, Silas panics when she finally brings this up. She then discovers he has some unfinished business in Kansas City that he has to clear up before he can commit.

In Kansas City he is dragged into a situation that he never expected and it causes him to be put into jail and unable to write to Cassie for months. Cassie, heartbroken, tries getting over Silas thinking he has deserted her and finds herself in an awkward position with the new minister.

Things get very tense for Cassie and Silas and I cannot tell you more or I'll spoil the surprises. While all my books seem to have a moral somewhere this one really doesn't except to always trust in God.
