It actually jars when they mention dryers and telephones! This is a classic Linda Howard, all strong alpha males, feisty heroines, and great sex scenes. In this one Wolf Mackenzie was once falsely accused of rape and now is feared by the town folk. The new school marm comes to town and befriends his son Joe and falls in love with him. It's a comfort read for me, I've reread it many times. (  ) amf0001 | Jul 21, 2008 |  The story opens with Wolf Mackenzie, half Comanche, and half Scottish Celt, lusting for a woman - any woman. Wolf is the embodiment of his dual heritage, a warrior, decidedly male and possessing a native affinity as a horse breeder and trainer. A long time widower, he lives with his teenage son, Joe, on a mountain in rural Ruth, North Dakota. Mary Elisabeth Porter, spinster schoolteacher from Savannah, Georgia is the new high school teacher. When Mary Elizabeth discovers that Joe Mackenzie had quit school despite excellent grades, she drives up the mountain to talk him into returning. She might first appear to be a mousey spinster but Wolf soon proves to be the cheese. The relationship fosters community discord, suspense, and steamy sex. Lind Howard at her best. (  ) muzzie | May 8, 2008 | Wolf Mackenzie is a loner, he survived being a half-breed on a reservation and survived being in the special ops in Vietnam, survived a mistaken accusation of rape (which had some time in jail involved) and has survived being a solo father to a now-teenage son. He doesn't need complications into his life, particularly schoolteacher Mary Elizabeth Potter. She's very unworldly but she's determined for his son to fulfil his dreams. Along the way she finds herself falling in love with a wolf. There are times where she is too stupid to live but there are also some very sweet moments. It's quite dated but not the worst of it's sort. (  ) wyvernfriend | Jan 22, 2008 | Another book I have read many times. A love story, about trust, family values, and Good willl prevail in the end. A feel good book. Definetly worth five stars (  ) gogglemiss | Jan 3, 2008 | dmwmtgal | Nov 25, 2007 |  no reviews | add a review
