Book Description:
Roxelle McCann is eager to meet the family of her best friend, so she takes a mini-vacation to the Navajo Nation. Roxelle expects to find out more about Navajo language and customs and to be awed by the beauty of Monument Valley. She does not expect to find love among the monuments. The man she meets offers both a surprising possible future and a tender reminder of the past.
Review:
Monument Valley sounds like a pretty amazing place to visit. I've always been a sucker for breathtaking scenery, so I really appreciated the descriptions of the areas Roxelle and Will visited. The story itself was very short, and I think there just wasn't enough time to fully develop the characters. They all seemed pretty superficial to me, and I really would have liked to get to know them a lot better. I am glad that the reader gets to know Roxelle and Will's history. That made for a sweet romance. I have to admit I kept expecting Rowdy to show up again. I'm not sure why exactly, but it just seemed like there should have been more of a story with him.
