About book Western Skies: Song Of The West / Boundary Lines (2009)

This book contains two of Nora Roberts old 1980s classics first published by Silhouette books.Song of the West takes the reader to a big Wyoming ranch with Samantha Evans - visiting to help her sister when complications occur with her pregnancy. As a city girl it's hard to adjust to ranch life ... and that's only complicated more by Jake Tanner - a nearby rancher, who seems to rub her the wrong way - even as he attracts her. ... The second novel Boundary Lines reminds you of a Romeo-Juliet plot ... although set in Montana ... about two feuding families and the man and woman in each, Aaron and Jillian, that fall for each other and finally end up resolving the old feud once and for all before the book is out. ... Both are just wonderfully written stories in the fresh and captivating style Nora Roberts books are known for. As a rule, I have never liked novellas. I didn't even realize Western Skies was a novel of two novellas when I picked it up, so when I figured it out I didn't have high hopes for this read. Isn't it nice to be pleasantly surprised? Both Song of the West and Boundary Lines were really good stories. But although I rather liked Song of the West, I felt that it was under developed, which is my main objection to novellas. The stories and characters are just getting started and are then wrapped up far too quickly, leaving you wanting more. With Boundary Lines however, we get a far more meaty plot and fully fleshed out characters. Really, this novella is long enough to be considered a novel seeing as its slightly more than 200 pages. A short novel, but a novel so possibly that's why it gets my stamp of approval. I have to say both Aaron and Jillian are compelling characters although Jillian is a bit of an idiot when it comes to love. But if she wasn't so stupid about it we wouldn't fall so ardently in love with Aaron so I guess her absurd perspective serves its purpose. Because damn, I liked that stubborn cowboy. I'd put this read on my favorites shelf if it came on its own. So 3 stars for Song of the West, 5 for Boundary Lines gives the compilation of Western Skies a nice rating of 4 stars.
