I'm glad that I purchased this book inspite of the reviews. I really enjoyed it. I love native american folklore, history and tales. I am from Montana and have always admired the native american for who they are and were. We could learn so much from them. I felt the author gave me a wonderful glimpse into the forest and the animals that belong there. I loved how she interacted her characters with those animals without it being far fetched and unrealistic. I believe there was a time and still is that animals and men can communicate. Each requires their own respect. As an artist I was able to visualize several pictures from this story that are just waiting to be put to color. Her descriptions and feel of the story did just that for me.

Be Warned!

I was pretty disappointed in this book. While I enjoy the occasional romance novel, I am wary to pick up a book by a cross-genre writer like Vella Munn. Its the story of a young woman Twana who has a special power to be able to locate animals, and even in one case, talk telepathically to them. Twana's mother disappeared many years ago, and both she and her mother have been surrounded by abusive, conniving men. Until the insipidly instant love of her life kidnaps her, and together they are able to work through their past traumas and live happily ever after.

There! You know the story and that's about as exciting as it gets. It's very negative to most of the men in the novel as a way to make the main male character more attractive and lovable to the reader.

This book isn't worth your time or money. This book belongs off the shelves of fantasy and back among the "bodice rippers."
