Reviews

"A living legend." -- Julia Quinn

"The signature elements of Jenkins's work come together in spectacular form in Wild Rain, a boldly feminist narrative about a female rancher...[The novel] showcases Jenkins's talent for writing intriguing individual stories that illuminate bigger historical themes." -- New York Times

A complex, nuanced story. -- Booklist (starred review)

"Wild Rain will linger in your thoughts for its remarkably likable hero, spirited heroine, beautiful horses, scenery, adventure, and romance. It's the kind of excellent storytelling that keeps us coming back for more, again and again from Beverly Jenkins." -- NPR

"Jenkins (Rebel) continues her streak of writing sensual, hopeful historicals about people who often don't make it into the history books... Jenkins's excellent storytelling skills, paired with fascinating American history, makes the narrative shine." -- Library Journal (starred review) on Wild Rain

"This book has all the hallmarks of Jenkins' fiction--meticulous historical research, a frank look at social conditions for Black people of the time, masterful pacing, and complex, likable characters...You shouldn't miss it." -- Kirkus (starred review) on Wild Rain

"Memorable characters and fun, if fraught, dialogue make the highly anticipated second book in romance star Jenkins' Women Who Dare series a refreshing and keenly innovative historical romance. Readers will be clamoring for more well-researched and inclusive love stories featuring strong women in the American West." -- Booklist (starred review) on Wild Rain

"New love heals old wounds in Jenkins's heartening second Reconstruction era Women Who Dare romance...Jenkins once again proves why she's a giant of the genre." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Wild Rain
