Roslyn West's The Rebel: Men of Pride County

THE MEN OF PRIDE COUNTY : THE REBEL By Rosalyn West
An Avon Historical Romance/ISBN 0 -380-80301-1 11/98

When a fellow Confederate Soldier betrays him and his men, Major Noble Banning winds up on the sidelines of the Civil War at Point Lookout Prison. There, he is faced with either remaining in a Yankee jail or moving out West with the Union troops. Nobel accepts the offer to go west, hoping to find out the man who betrayed him and caused the death of many in his command.

Little does Major Banning know that out west he will be under the constant threat of Indian raids, as well as the threat of losing his heart to Juliet Crowley, the daughter of his Union Commander. Losing one's heart is not usually fatal, but the problem is, he has lost it to one who has no love for Southern boys. As the war rages on, so does the passion in Banning's heart.

Juliet finds little tolerance toward the rebel solider who is now wearing Union blues and running her father's troops. She suspects that it won't be long until the southern traitors turn on their captors. However, it isn't Major Banning's loyalties, but her own heart that takes a turn. Soon, the world is no longer colored in blue and grays, but in the rich hues of love. But Juliet and Noble's problems don't end there. When the war is over, will they both be on the same side?

In THE REBEL, Rosalyn West paints an accurate portrait of people who are only different because of the colors they wear. She leads us to a place where we can forget about the war and see people for who they are and what they want. The Rebel is a heartwarming and enjoyable read.
