A Distance Too Grand
American Wonders Collection book 1
by Regina Scott
| -From Goodreads- When a spunky photographer wrangles her way onto an 1871 survey crew of the Grand Canyon she thinks nothing can stand in her way. But her mind changes when she finds out she'll be working alongside the one man she doesn't want to fall in love with. ISBN-13: 9780800736392 They each want very different things...or do they? So, I think the first thing that attracted me to A Distance Too Grand was the location where it is set. The Grand Canyon evokes a lot of mental images, even if you've never seen it in person, and I have to say that the dramatic and awe inspiring landscape really is a star in the book. It was another bonus that I've read some of Regina Scott's shorter historical novels and really enjoyed them. Her touches of humor and some exciting moments of danger accenting the historical romance always makes for some delightful reading. As I've read several suspense books lately it was nice to take a break and head back to what was essentially the Old West. Seriously, maybe I've watched one too many old John Wayne cavalry movies but those were the images that were running through my mind as I was reading this book. |  This Book received a 4.5 Bark rating.

A Distance Too Grand was altogether an enjoyable read. Regina Scott's vivid descriptions of the Grand Canyon, the interesting historical tidbits about the early exploration of area, and her charming characters, well, except the villain as Old West villains are by nature very unpleasant, were nicely blended together. I was glad to find that this is the first book in the American Wonders Collection and I look forward to the next book in the series...
