Five Heart Review for Where the Wind Blows <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Where the Wind Blows
by Caroline Fyffe


Here is a debut novel not to miss. If you are a western fan, this will make you shout for joy that someone has gotten it so right. If not, you will still find a solid first novel with action and a sense of historical reality. I will put Where the Wind Blows on my keeper shelf and revisit it from time to time, knowing that I did not discover all the gems in it the first time around.

Fyffe portrays a picture of the west that shows it as a good life but one requiring sacrifice and hard work. She paints the picture of the beauty and the intangibles that pulled people to those isolated spots. Yet she captures the people who made up the West and who built things from scratch. She gives them depth allowing the reader to get to know them. And she makes it all seem real.

Where the Wind Blows is a delightful story rich in the essence of the West. The romance is sharp and engaging. There is a lot to this story and once read, it will invite the reader to visit over and over again.
