This book not only had romance, but action and some mystery. I told my husband that he might even enjoy it since he likes action and western type books. It is a very good story.

Loved it!
If you haave read For the Roses then this is a must read, it is the end of a wonderfull storey about a familt that you will wnat to visit agin and agin. This will be a book you want to put on your keep pile.
This western romance is sort of a semi-sequel to For the Roses, one of Julie Garwood's best, "featuring the unforgettable frontier family, the Claybornes of Blue Belle, Montana" (named after a depressed Lady of the Evening - not the picturesque flower). Also on that list - you MUST try The Wedding. From the BACK COVER: Cole Clayborne had always walked a dark path and flirted with a life of crime. While his three brothers chose to settle into married life, Cole rebelliously refused to be tied down...
Nice love story. Easy reading.
One of the Clayborne Brothers series - good book

Great story!
great love story
A great read!
This is a delightful ending to the Clayborne series. This is a full-size novel about the most controversial of the Clayborne sons -- Cole. He seems to be wavering on both sides of the law. Daniel Ryan, after talking to Mama Rose, decides that there is a good person to save if he can only get Cole to accept an appointment as a US Marshall.
Daniel and Cole start following a particularly heinous group of robbers (who enjoy killing all witnesses to their crimes). When three different women claim to be the sole, living witness to a particularly brutal massacre in a bank, it is up to Daniel and Cole to figure out who is the real witness and why the others are lying. This is a great story with lots of action.

What began so beautifully in For the Roses and continued with The Claybourne Brides comes to a delightful conclusion in COME THE SPRING as Julie Garwood brings us to Cole Claybourne and the elusive Daniel Ryan.
Cole, the rebellious brother, faces a life changing decision when he encounters U.S. Marshall Daniel Ryan, the man who stole his compass from Mama Rose.
Marshall Ryan has kept the compass to lure Cole. He needs Cole's help to capture a notorious band of bank robbers. Daniel believes there was a witness to their last robbery and he means to find her and then the killers.
Cole is reluctant but hes soon caught up in Daniel's investigation. They discover that one of three women in the town was in the bank that day. Once they find Grace, Jessica and Rebecca they must guard them from the gang's wrath.
Both Cole and Daniel discover that protecting the women leaves their hearts unguarded. As they get closer to unmasking the leader of the gang (and a court trial youll never forget), they find the love and peace they need.

Cole Clayborne woke up in a jail cell with a pounding headache, a star on his chest, and a deep feeling of anger at the man who stole his compass and put him there. Daniel Ryan, a United States Marshall from Texas, had taken Cole's compass from his mama, Mama Rose, when she was coming home. Cole's compass has now been returned to him and he's helping Daniel to find some bank robbers he has been chasing for 2 years. They are becoming increasingly more aggressive with every robbery. If it werent for a loose shoe string she would have been killed with the others in the bank robbery. When Cole and Daniel suspect there was a witness to the latest robbery hiding under a desk they try to keep it quiet but the town has different ideas. The local sheriff locks the three women, one of which was the one who witnessed the robbery, in a jail cell. Cole and Daniel have to find out which one is the true witness as each woman has given the same story...it wasn't her. In turn each woman then confesses it was she and not the other women. The judge from Texas hearing the case has requested all three women be brought to him for the trial. Cole takes Jessica first and heads out on horseback . Another Marshall is to escort Rebecca via carriage. Daniel is to take Grace although she does most of the taking care of due to him coming down with the flu on the train. Along the way Cole and Jessica "have their wedding night" and Cole declares they will find a preacher at the next town. Daniel and Grace also develop strong feelings for one another along the way although Daniel fights his feelings to the bitter end. Finally, after a few set backs along the way and another robbery has taken place they all make it to the trial just in the nick of time.
