"Addictive. Highly recommended!"Paulette Jiles, New York Times bestselling author of News of the World Beautifully rendered, Where Coyotes Howl is a vivid and deeply affecting ode to the early twentieth century West, from master storyteller Sandra Dallas. Except for the way they loved each other, they were just ordinary, everyday folks. Just ordinary. 1916. The two-street town of Wallace is not exactly what Ellen Webster had in mind when she accepted a teaching position in Wyoming, but within a years time shes fallen in loveboth with the High Plains and with a handsome cowboy named Charlie Bacon. Life is not easy in the flat, brown corner of the state where winter blizzards are unforgiving and the summer heat relentless. But Ellen and Charlie face it all together, their relationship growing stronger with each shared success, and each deeply felt tragedy. Ellen finds purpose in her work as a ranchers wife and in her bonds with other women settled on the prairie. Not all of them are so lucky as to have loving husbands, not all came to Wallace willingly, and not all of them can survive the cruel seasons. But they look out for each other, share their secrets, and help one another in times of need. And the needs are great and constant. The only city to speak of, Cheyenne, is miles away, making it akin to the Wild West in rural Wallace. In the end, it is not the trials Ellen and Charlie face together that make them remarkable, but their love for one another that endures through it all.

Great story. I love reading anything by Sandra Dallas because she features strong women who have to go thru hard times, usually out on the Western prairie. I loved the characters in this story but I will tell you this: it is sad, sad, sad. The 1916 Wyoming prairie in this story read a lot like the 1800‘s prairie stories always do, which was a surprise to me. I suppose most modern conveniences hadn‘t made their way out there yet.

But sad, so sad.

intothehallofbooks I read this from an audiobook copy that I purchased myself and followed along with a library hardcover copy, but I also had received a digital copy from St Martin‘s Press via NetGalley about a year ago in exchange for a review. I‘m really working to catch up on my NetGalley backlog and was thrilled to finally make time for this one. 8mo

Book 6 and the last for September. I have adored and devoured every Sandra Dallas book I've read. Something about her writing just flows and grabs your attention to the point that I usually finish the books in one sitting.

After reading LITTLE SOULS last year I was very excited about reading this book. It is both good and bad. Good in that it will definitely make you feel lots of deep emotions. Bad in that there is a bit too much devastation happening. Also I did not like the very end. To me it was just too much. I don't believe it would have happened. Thus I did find that part unbelievable and it lost a star for that.

FULL REVIEW 4/18

A new teacher in town.

Will she stay since none of the other teachers last a year?

They don't last in Wallace because it's so small, and the winters and summers are brutally cold and brutally hot.

A sweet but tragic, sad read.

If you need something different with genuine characters and would like to learn of the difficult life on the prairies of Wyoming, give it a try.
