Cassie Lockwood was part of her father's Wild West show all
her life until he died and his partner declared that the
show was bankrupt. Cassie has her doubt's through out the
book. Apparently, this is the second book of the series and
I look forward to reading the first and last books of the
series.
Cassie and her long life friends from the show travel to
South Dakota to find her father's ranch, which she is part
owner of now. She wants to follow her father's dreams and
she wants to settle down. Both her parents have passed
on and the only family she has are her friends from the
show, sadly, it's a time where American Indians are not
accepted with open arms.
When she arrives at the ranch with her three American Indian
friends, she meets the family of her dad's partner he had
left behind to become part owner in the Wild West Show many
years ago. The family welcomes her friends to the area, but
there are some from the town that would rather have them
leave, as soon as possible. Actually, her sons are a bit
cold to Cassie until Mavis tells them the true story of the
partnership between Cassie's father and theirs. Mavis's
husband had dies years ago, so Cassie has information to
show them that she is half partner of the ranch now.
As time goes on, Cassie is made to feel like family and her
friends are accepted as such. They start to build on
friendship, love, and helping each other make a new life on
the ranch. But there is trouble brewing over her American
Indian friends.
WHISPERS IN THE WIND is the second book in a series. I did
not read the first one, but this book stands alone very
well. In order to finish the story I will need to read the
next one that comes out because I am anxious to know how it
all turns out, but again this book still stands alone. I
think that is a rare talent for an author. The fact that
there was no romance at all in this book and it stood alone
based totally on the story is another sign of a great
author. Ms. Snelling knows her craft. I loved WHISPER IN
THE WIND.
