YA
Hope's summer in Montana gets exciting when she meets a young rancher named Cal. Their romance-turned-survival-adventure strangely echoes events from an old diary she finds, that of eighteenth-century Emily and her own love interest, Nate. Both romances feel somewhat flimsy, and Native representation can be simplistic at times. But with such a vivid setting, readers will feel transported to rural Montana.
