*****COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN*****

I absolutely do not agree with the other two reviewers. Having lived in somewhat similar circumstances I can totally empathize with the heroine. I give her KUDO"S for surviving in the way that she did. Having been raised in Boston society and having to farm the land & care for a comatose husband was almost more than a woman in those days could be expected to survive. Her husband set her up on the homestead and ran off to war leaving her to farm the land by herself. And then he came home an invalid & she continued farming while caring for him. Granted she did make some wrong choices but what was she to do in her circumstances. She needed someone to help do the farming while she had some freedom to care for him. Temptation is very strong and somewhat hard to resist. I think it was a well written book & kept me reading when I should have been doing other things. I loved the hero of the book as he was a TRUE helpmate even though he was only a "Hired Hand". He gave the heroine & her son more help,care & consideration than the husband/father ever gave to them. Is not that the idea of historical romances to have a hero come to the rescue? I read many, many books and about half of them I read are OK & I finish them but they don't keep me turning pages as this book did. Would recommend it to most true readers of historical romances. The other reviewer stated that they left the husband alone while going places, she was not reading the same book I was then as they always had the neighbor Ida staying with while gone to church and elsewhere.
