Dreams of Fire & Rain

Dragon & Hawk #2

by Jude Johnson

Evan Jones thinks his troubles are over in 1886. He has married the Mexican curandera who captured his heart, and started horse ranching outside of Tombstone, near his brother's family. Proud and obstinate, Evan is determined to provide a good life and be self-sufficient, even if it means being less than openly honest with his wife. Reyna Jones loves her husband but finds his stubborn resolve more than a little frustrating. As a mystic healer, she is open to visions and dreams that often prove helpful - just not when it comes to understanding Evan. She is bewildered when he stops sharing his feelings with her as soon as tragedy strikes. When former acquaintances reappear in their lives, from across the sea and beyond the desert, whether their intentions are for good or ill remains hidden. But one thing is certain: the Joneses are threatened by mortal dangers from both man and Nature. Soon they must stand together - or perish.

About the author

Jude Johnson is the granddaughter of a curandera and considers herself “native by proxy” to Arizona. She speaks moderately effective Bad Border Spanish and knows just enough Welsh to yell unique words while driving through construction zones.

I loved this book, which is #2 in a series of 3. The characters a cleverly written and charming in every way! My mother was Welsh and used many of the expressions that I read…what a treat!
I would still give these books 5 stars even without my Welsh heritage. Highly recommend! Anxious to start #3😊

Nearly as good as the first one, Dragon and Hawk, still well worth the read.
