Description As Books Summer Breeze (Coulters Historical #2)
The year is 1889, and Rachel Hollister hasn't set foot outside her house in five years. Ever since a savage attack left her family dead, she's cordoned herself off from the outside world, afraid to let anyone into her home—or into her heart. But now trouble has appeared on her doorstep—and suddenly she has no choice but to let a handsome rancher invade her well-guarded existence ...Confirmed bachelor Joseph Paxton grudgingly offers to take up temporary residence at the Hollister ranch—even though it's obvious Rachel doesn't want his protection. But once he catches a glimpse of his beautiful young ward and her remarkable spirit, he'll do anything to break through the dark spell that's walled off her heart. It may take a miracle, but he's determined to make her see the refuge he's offering in his embrace—and the splendor that exists beyond her front door. Otherwise he'll just have to build a safe haven big enough for the both of them ...

I enjoyed this book a little more than the other one in this series. I now want a courtyard! :-)Joseph and Rachel -a forever kind of love.This book is nothing super remarkable. Standard Anderson fare; broken heroine, studly hero, love at first sight, lots of drama and a happily ever after. But I couldn't help liking it a bit anyway.Rachel's trauma is more than the usual Evil Ex or rape Anderson's heroines tend to be saddled with. Instead the poor woman's been hiding from the world since she watched her entire family die. She has trust issues with just about EVERYONE, and only lets Joseph into her house because she has no choice.
OMG!!!!! What an AMAZING read!!!! I don't know why I purchased this book a long time ago and then waited until now to read it! Silly me :DBefore "Summer Breeze", the only book by Catherine Anderson that I'd read was Annie's Song (and it was an utterly emotional and beautiful read! ^^). So I didn't know what to expect in this book or if Ms. Anderson could be my new favorite romance author. But after "Summer Breeze", I know she can, and she has :DIt was so lovely to see how Rachel and Joseph -
It was a good read. I give 1 star for the book title and 1 star for the epilogues letter. The mystery and suspense were perfectly played out. From the start I know the killer isnt obvious one, but I couldnt guess either. The Author did a great job to build Rachel and Joseph characters and the chemistry between them is great. The bonding of these characters was built slowly and I am glad author didnt rush for it. Overall, its a beautiful romance story.
This book has a good premise but I didn't care for it that much. After seeing her family massacred the Rachel has become agoraphobic the last five years and is unable to leave her house. After Rachel's hired hand is shot Joseph comes to look after her (against his will) because he promises her hired hand he will.This is not a bad book, but I never got very invested in the story. Joseph is kind've a galoot. He doesn't come off as especially witty or intelligent. He also fights and denies his
A skillfully written, slow, sweet, and simple story of a young woman who has spent last 5 years unable to leave 4 walls because of a trauma-induced panic disorder and a 'reluctant temporary caretaker' who is of course a dashing gentleman who will change her world. It follows very traditional story arc, with romance so thick and sweet you could spread it on a toast but then have hard time chewing through it. With sprinkles of stetsons, sheriffs, horses, gold, and bullets.Perfect fit for people
Great book! Kept me interested to the end!
