Based off the historical Pack Horse Librarians of Kentucky, the author brings the reader on the journey of the main character moving from overseas and joining the community. Full of women empowerment and strength for independence and education, the reader follows the main character fight for love and self worth. It is a good read for a long vacation or book club. I did wish perhaps there was more historical references that matched to the fact this occurred at the same time as WWII.

As a retired librarian, I have been interested in the history of the horseback librarians of the past. This was an interesting work of fiction and at times it got a little off the story line but overall I enjoyed this first book I have read by this author. Spoiler alert, it gets a little racy in the later part of the book. It does have a happy ending with all the various story lines coming together.
