In From the Cold

        Recently, we had the privilege to meet Luke Foster from Susan Payne’s An Unexpected Wife. Luke, a hard-working Nebraska rancher with a slew of younger brothers to ride herd on, rescues the town librarian Lorelei from desperate straits and thereby forges a deep and everlasting future for himself, the woman he comes to love, and starting a new branch of the Foster family tree.

One of those ‘branches’ was Luke’s younger brother Matthew who, after one look at Lorelei, knew he needed make a life for himself—and that Nebraska was not the place to do it. Hence, we found Matthew traveling to Alaska in the historical romance, In From the Cold, written by Susan Payne, and released by the Wild Rose Press.

 Our Review:  While detailing Matthew’s trials and tribulations while in carving out a space for himself in rough and rugged Sitka, Payne once again shows off her enviable skill for research. While enjoying a simple, basic romance, the readers learns volumes on customs and culture of Native Alaskan peoples as well as those of Mother Russia. As always this is more than a simple romance; it is filled with adventure and imagination and is sure to please any number of readers.

 On a scale of 1-5, In From the Cold deserves a 4.
