I LOVE a book that makes me smile, then laugh, then get pissed, and then cry.... OMG! This story is beautiful and sad and wonderful and I am so happy I found it and that I read it. I wish there were more like it.

I am going to go in search of all of Dinah McCall/Sharon Sala's books I can find because she writes exactly what I want to read.

It's not what I was expecting but I wasn't disappointed or sorry that I kept reading. It was smoothly written with the main characters being likable and believable. Even the towns people had their moments in the sun. All of the characters aroused emotions from pity, to exasperation mixed with shades of the Hatfield's and McCoy's. Overall an excellent read producing it's own kind of suspense. ( )

Typical Sharon Sala/Dinah McCall fare. Fast paced. ( )

While I was reading The Return I was really reminded why Dinah McCall is becoming a favorite author of mine. I really enjoy the sense of adventure I feel well reading her books. She gives such vivid descriptions of the setting. The high mountains, sparkling lakes, rugged terran. It almost makes me want to jump into the book. The story was gripping, especially in the first few chapters. I enjoyed the characters. The book was a little predictable. I knew who ‘the hunter’ was right away, it was obvious. The first few chapters of the book took place in the past. It told the story of Fancy and Turner, and the feud between their families. I feel their love story should have been told in more detail, perhaps in a separate book. A sequel could have been written for Catherine, and Luke. Great book! ( )
