The Genuine Lady
Chased from England by scandal, Lady Charlotte Beacham is starting a new life for herself and her son on the windswept prairies of the Dakota Territory. Sick of gossip, Cherry vows to keep separate from the society of the little railroad town near her homestead. But Bradshaw folks are neighborly, and she soon finds herself part of town life, and hopelessly fascinated by her infuriating neighbor.
Jared Reese gave up the cowboy life and came to Bradshaw to forget about the woman who broke his heart. He doesn't plan on falling in love with anyone, and most certainly not his crazy neighbor, that stuffy Englishwoman with a temper like a snake's. He's better off alone, thank you very much.
Cherry is sure her heart is in the grave back in England. Jared is sure his heart is irreparably broken. But they can't deny the sparks in the air when their eyes meet - or the way fate keeps throwing them together as the hostile prairie tries to shake them off.
Against the fierce summer storms and icy winter blizzards of a harsh promised land, Cherry and Jared must learn to let go of the past and embrace their future. But that's easier said than done, especially when the past shows up on one's doorstep.

The second in Sydney Alexander's Heroines on Horseback series. I enjoyed this novel more than the first one. It felt like the heroines predicament was the result of the sort of romance I've read in lots of stories. . . what could go wrong in those situations.

Good story. I was a little disappointed in Jared's behavior about 2/3 way through, but still enjoyed the book.
