In Jacobsville Sara Brandon runs into her taunting enemy Wofford
“Wolf” Patterson at the drugstore.
Speaking Farsi, she curses and threatens to shoot him before heading to
her brother’s home in nearby Comanche Wells, Texas. A victim of her late stepfather’s abuse as a
young girl and her mother’s subsequent accusatory abandonment, Sara is a
recluse who distrusts all males except her older protective brother Gabriel,
but also misses her BFF Michelle Godfrey (see Texas Born).
Wolf, like Sara, enjoys attending the opera in Houston, playing on-line
war games and distrusts the opposite sex after his relationship with
psychopathic Ysera who apparently is freed in Buenos Aires and seeking
revenge. As Sara and Wolf run the
battlegrounds and dungeons of World of Warcraft together, neither knows the
real identity of their partner. They fall
in love though aware of the risk of bringing a cyberspace relationship to the
real world; but not as much as having Ysera invade the States.
Wyoming Strong is a delightful contemporary
starring two wounded warriors falling in love while playing on line
gaming. Though the Internet romance
brings freshness and Ysera adds tension, the storyline remains somewhat similar
to many of Diana Palmer’s ranch romances.
Still this is a pleasant sequel as the protagonists find love in the
dungeons.
