5 out of 5 stars
CURRENCY OF THE HEART is a story of overcoming loss instead
of allowing it to consume you. An enchanting story with genuine characters.
Shaina Sterling knows what it is to experience loss. On her
own from an early age, she’s led a difficult life that seems to get more
difficult as time goes on. Doing all
that she can to protect the reputation of her recently deceased husband, she
secretly sells off the accumulation of his wealth to hide his sordid secret.
But she knows it’s only a matter of time before the people of Denver discover
her secret. When tragedy strikes again−leaving Shaina homeless−Sloan Remington
offers her not only a place to stay, but asks for her help taking care of his
housekeeper who has suffered a fall. Offering to pay her for her duties is more
than she can imagine, but Sloan insists it is only fair and brings her to his
ranch. Shaina knows Sloan is a man with a stellar reputation, but is about to
find out what a truly fine man he is.
Sloan Remington knows all about Shaina’s woes. Unbeknownst
to her, Sloan has been keeping an eye on her because of the promise he made to
her dying husband. His intentions towards Shaina are pure. He wants to keep her safe, out of harm’s way,
and free from the wagging tongues of Denver’s elite. Even though his intentions
are to see to Shaina’s well-being, he can’t help but think of what life would
be life with a woman like Shaina by his side. But Sloan is keeping his own
secrets. Secrets he is sure will change the way the people of Denver and Shaina
will look at him.
Though CURRENCY OF THE HEART was predictable, it did not
take away from my enjoyment. Shaina is genuine at heart, never thinking she
deserves more out of life. And Sloan is the consummate hero that wants nothing
else but to take care and protect Shaina. The secondary characters of Mable,
Jim, Abe, Elise, and Doc, add their own storylines and flare to the book. If
you like romance and the historic West, you’ll definitely enjoy CURRENCY OF THE
HEART
