One of the things that was very interesting was that the heroine was severely dyslexic. The author really did a good job portraying a woman whose whole life was severely affected by the fact that she couldn't read at all. Reading is something we take for granted and not reading can really impact your self esteem and your ability to get jobs and etc.
Another thing that was different and realistic was the fact that the heroine, Erin, had first fallen into a casual sexual relationship with the youngest brother, Joey, and it turned out that she and the oldest brother, Jack, were really a much better match. So now all three of them had to try to come to terms with that. Jack had a very hard time making a move on a girl who had slept with his brother first. The language and dialog of the love story was very well done and moving. Even though Jack was a widower who had loved his first wife, I had no trouble believing that he loved Erin and she was not second best.
The secondary characters were well developed and diverse and interesting. The setting was a definite factor in the story and there was just enough description to be vivid without the story becoming bogged down with details you didn't care about. Also this story takes place on a horse ranch and you all know how picky I am about horse details. Here the author didn't make any missteps. The horse elements were portrayed realistically without the wide eyed glamour and anthropomorphizing that most non horsey authors put into western books. So kudos to the author there.
