With more than 7 million books in print, RT Book Reviews Career Achievement Award-winning and USA Today Bestselling author Rosanne Bittner pens a historical Western romance filled with dangerous cowboys, capable heroines, and an epic love story that sweeps across the Old West. IN A LAND OF OPPORTUNITY Sunny Landers wants a big life--as big and free as the untamed land that stretches before her. Land she will help her father conquer to achieve his dream of a transcontinental railroad. She won't let a cold, creaky wagon, murderous bandits or stampeding buffalo stand in her way. She wants it all--including Colt Travis. ALL THE ODDS WERE AGAINST THEM Like the land of his birth, half-Cherokee Colt Travis is wild, hard, and dangerous. He is a drifter, a wilderness scout with no land and no prospects hired by the Landers family to guide their wagon train. He knows Sunny is out of his league and her father would never approve, but beneath the endless starlit sky, anything seems possible... Praise for Bestselling Historical Western Romances by Rosanne Bittner: "A hero to set feminine hearts aflutter...western romance readers will thoroughly enjoy this." -- Library Journal "Fans of such authors as Jodi Thomas and Georgina Gentry will enjoy Bittner's thrilling tale of crime and love in the Old West."-- Booklist Online "One of the most powerful voices in western romance."-- RT Book Reviews

Sunny Landers first meets Colt Travis in 1857, when her father, Bo Landers, hires Colt to scout for their party. The Landers are looking at the feasibility of creating a transcontinental train service.
Colt and Sunny make a powerful impression on each other and they meet intermittently over the years. Each time, there is a powerful attraction between them, but they realize that their worlds are too far apart. Colt is a half-breed Indian drifter while Sunny is a beautiful, powerful multimillionaire.
First of all, I don't like books that rewrite history with women in men's roles. It just didn't happen in that day-and-time. I don't care how beautiful Sunny was, the prejudice was too strong.
Second, this book is too long. The book spent too much time saying the same things. I skipped pages at a time to get to more interesting parts.
Third, the parallel histories weren't interesting enough to carry the book until the main characters could get together again.
Lately, Roseanne Bittner has been my go-to author for something great to read. This book missed the mark; 3.5 stars.
