"What Summer and Billy overcome in this book is amazing. There are just so many things against them yet they find love and happiness in the end. So many twists and turns here, yet a sense of love and loyalty come about."
"The Loner is my favorite of this series, so far. We first meet Bad Billy Coburn in The Texan. He learned he is the bastard son of his family's enemy, Blackjack Blackthorne. Before he had this important news, he was in love with Blackjack's daughter, Summer Blackthorne. Oh no! Summer is his sister! But wait, Summer overhears her parents arguing and learns that she is not Blackjack's daughter! Her father is her mother's lover. Blackjack learns this and is crushed; however he still wants Billy to stay far away from Summer. He bribes him with a dream job, and tells him never to come back.
Well that was 2 years ago and he's back. His momma is dying, and he's got to take care of her. He runs into Summer his first night back in town and realizes he's never stopped caring for her. She is engaged to someone else, though.
Summer has been raised as a spoiled princess. She is the only daughter of the wealthy Blackjack Blackthorne. Her dream is to run her father's company, The Blackthorne Cattle Company, one day. However, Blackjack has other plans for her. He wants to match her up with man that will bring more land to the Blackthorne family. As a teenager she befriended Billy Coburn, and ultimately realized she loves him. But he just coldly ditched her and up and left town.
Now that he is back, they both realize they want each other, but there are many complications. One being Billy has a baby son now....
A great story! It's full of love, mystery, suspense..."
"This is the story of Summer Blackthorne and Billy Coburn. Summer and Billy had alsways been friends until 2 years previous when they become more interested in one another. Billy has loved Summer for years, but unbegknowst to him he is really the bastard son of Jackson Blackthorne and Dora Coburn. Summer is actually not the daughter of Jackson Blackthorne but the daughter of Blackthornes wife Eve and Blackthorne's foreman Russell Handy, who is in prison now convicted of murder. Okay, Phew had to get things straight. Also is the continuing story of Jackson's love for Lauren Creed and the new love story of Sam Creed and Emma Coburn. A marriage of convenience, a unwanted pregnancy, and murder all all covered on this book.
How Ms Johnston keeps 3 different stories that are integral to the story seperated but still needed for continuity amazes me. They are not hard to follow and they are all intertwined in one another. Just a good Sunday afternon read."
