5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Western 11 Aug 2003
By "caffeym" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I was moved so much reading Duel and Jessie's story in KNIGHTS ON THE TEXAS PLAINS. This book was so rich in the western scenery and history that the scenes unfolded reading as if you were there seeing it all happen right in front of you. There were times I laughed, times I cried reading this book. The love story between them and their love for Marley Rose was a joy to read. The book flowed so beautiful as I read it, that it was difficult to put down. I feel in love with the characters and felt like I knew them myself after reading this story. I so much look forward to Luke's story in THE COWBOY WHO CAME CALLING. Linda Broday is an outstanding author I look so much forward to reading more of.

4.0 out of 5 stars graphically vivid western romance 4 Oct 2002
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
In 1880 in Cactus Springs, Texas Duel McClain believes he has nothing to live ever since his loved ones died. However, he still almost has cardiac arrest when he draws the Deadman's Hand in a poker game and nearly suffers a stroke when a nasty player raises the ante by tossing a female infant Marley Rose into the pot. Duel wins and decides to take Marley to his sister in hope she and her husband will adopt the child.

A badly battered bloodied Jessie Foltry wanders into Duel's camp. The blood is not hers, but the bruises testify that someone beat her up and branded her shoulder with a diamond J. Jessie and Duel reach an agreement to keep Marley safe. On the trail they begin to fall in love, but when they reach his home, his brother a Texas Ranger arrests Jessie for killing her husband. Duel stands with the woman who has brought him back among the living as she stands trial.

KNIGHT ON THE TEXAS PLAIN is a graphically vivid western romance that focuses on spousal abuse and to a lesser degree child abandonment. The story line is at its strongest when a bewildered Duel "consults" his horse on what to do with his new dependents as this tells so much about the hero. Jessie is a wonderful protagonist but her inner strength that enables her to easily overcome her traumas contradicts her remaining in an abusive relationship for years. Linda Broday shows her talent with her ability to paint a three dimensional picture of life in post Reconstruction Era Texas.

5.0 out of 5 stars Page-Turner 11 Nov 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
What an excellent read! Some of the issues probably would scare away anyone looking for fluff, but for those who want a five course meal and dessert, too, this will keep you turning the pages. I promise you'll laugh and cry, but you won't regret reading Duel and Jessie's story. They will steal your hearts. I can't wait for the next one that I hear is about Duel's brother, Luke. Personally, I hope she keeps these books coming!
