Robert Brighton's Winter in the High Sierra is a beautifully rendered historical romance that immerses readers in the rugged, snowbound wilderness of 1900. With lyrical prose and meticulous historical detail, Brighton crafts a compelling tale of survival, redemption, and unexpected love. This is a thoughtful, deeply human story that lingers long after the final page. - San Francisco Book Review Winter in the High Sierra combines survival drama, slow-burn tension, and two characters with amazing chemistry-think Yellowstone meets Bridgerton, with a lot of snow. Louisa is a feisty heroine who's way out of her element, and her gruff yet unexpectedly charming rescuer is exactly the kind of rugged hero you root for. If you love romance with a side of adventure and sharp banter, this one's for you. - Manhattan Book Review Winter in the High Sierra is the kind of book that sneaks up on you. What starts as a survival story quickly turns into something deeper-an exploration of love, resilience, and two wildly different people figuring out how to coexist in the brutal winter wilderness. Brighton nails the historical setting, and the dialogue has just the right amount of wit to keep things engaging. This one's a winner. - Los Angeles Book Review Winter in the High Sierra is a beautifully crafted novel that captures the harshness and beauty of nature and human relationships. Brighton delivers an adventurous story focusing on life's unexpected connections, making it a rewarding read for fans of historical fiction and character-driven tales. It's a perfect story for curled-up-on-the-couch reading. - Readers Favorite Author Robert Brighton's attention to period detail is second to none and creates a vivid sense of time and place. The way the author weaves Christian themes naturally throughout the narrative adds a realistic attachment to faith that is appropriate to the historical period, without ever overwhelming the story for modern readers. The descriptions of the Sierra Nevada wilderness are suitably atmospheric and enhance the mood at every turn. Brighton's ability to build romantic tension while maintaining historical accuracy and spiritual authenticity creates moments of genuine connection that feel totally earned and deeply meaningful. I strongly recommend Winter in the High Sierra to readers who appreciate a historical romance that combines faith, adventure, and genuine character growth. - K.C. Finn, Literary Review Lou and Bandit are lovable, realistic, and hugely entertaining, and their dialogues are often witty and have meaningful depth. The themes include friendship, hope, and unwavering love. A love story that you will love-I know I did! - Reader Review Winter in the High Sierra by Robert Brighton was so much more than I hoped for, delivering a dose of life lessons that lingered long after I turned the last page. I thoroughly enjoyed the banter and conversation between Lou and Bandit, which added warmth and humor to the tense and uncertain circumstances, gradually revealing their vulnerabilities and the unspoken bond forming between them. - Literary Review

Author Information

Robert Brighton, award-winning author of the Avenging Angel Detective Agency(TM) Mysteries, is an authority on the turbulent final years of the Gilded Age, a vibrant, exciting era that is all too often misunderstood as stuffy and sexless. In his novels, Brighton peels away the glittering surface of the turn of the last century-a time both utterly strange and strangely familiar-to reveal the passions, conflicts, and human drama churning just beneath.When not writing novels, Brighton is an adventurer, having traveled to fifty-six countries around the world, and usually on only a few dollars a day. He is a relentless researcher who, before writing any of his historical novels, spent almost four years reading-cover to cover-four major newspapers from 1897-1904. Among his somewhat quixotic career choices, he has been a mule wrangler, a bison rancher, and a vintage automobile restorer.A graduate of the Sorbonne, Brighton is an admirer of Emily Dickinson and Jim Morrison. He is fond of tinkering with anything mechanical, splitting firewood, and observing the weather.He lives in Virginia with his wife and their two British Shorthair cats.
