Indian War in the Pacific Northwest: The Journal of Lieutenant Lawrence KipThroughout the 1850s, Native peoples of the inland Northwest actively resisted white encroachments into their traditional territories. Tensions exploded in 1858 when nearly one thousand Palouses, Spokanes, and Coeur d'Alenes routed an invading force commanded by Colonel Edward Steptoe. In response, Colonel George Wright mounted a large expedition into the heart of the Columbia Plateau to punish and subdue its Native peoples. Opposing Wright's force

Throughout the 1850s, Native peoples of the inland Northwest actively resisted white encroachments into their traditional territories. Tensions exploded in 1858 when nearly one thousand Palouses, Spokanes, and Coeur d'Alenes routed an invading force commanded by Colonel Edward Steptoe. In response, Colonel George Wright mounted a large expedition into the heart of the Columbia Plateau to punish and subdue its Native peoples. Opposing Wright's force was a loose confederacy of tribes led by the famous warrior Kamiakin. Indian War in the Pacific Northwest is a vivid and valuable first-person account of that aggressive and bloody military campaign. Related by Lawrence Kip, a young lieutenant serving under Wright, it provides a rare glimpse of military operations and campaign life along the far western frontier before the Civil War. Replete with colorful prose and acute observations, his journal is also notable for its dramatic descriptions of clashes with Kamiakin's men and compelling portraits of leading figures on both sides of the Plateau Indian War. The new introduction provides the historical and cultural background and aftermath of the conflict, explores its effects on present-day Native peoples of the Columbia Plateau, and critically assesses Kip's observations and interpretations. Also included in this Bison Books edition are two Native accounts of the conflict by Kamiakin and Mary Moses.

Sapphic Lawyer and Doctor
Format: Paperback
I loved this book… which is why I was very disappointed when the conflict was “solved” so easily and lowkey brushed past. We are waiting for this secret to come out that Rachel has been holding onto. There’s obviously conflict of interest with Ana and Rachel. But the way they solved it? I didn’t feel like it was realistic and it felt like both women were like, “Okay, that’s over, everything is kosher now(pun intended?). It honestly prevented me from giving it 5 stars. The ending seems so rushed. But other than that, I loved both characters! I loved learning about Jewish culture and loved how the author portrayed it. Both MCs are fleshed out, in depth characters. The author had a good balance of humor

Enjoyable Doctor, Lawyer Romance
Format: Paperback
A very enjoyable and engaging story. The medical and legal aspects of this story was very fascinating. I never get tired of reading romances that are about those troupes. The romance between the main characters was very sweet with not A lot of drama or angst. Sometimes I prefer A story with less drama and angst. I like when characters in A story can be reasonable and work out their problems without all the drama. Ana and Rachel are those characters. There's A few witty moments in this book that made me smile and laugh out loud A few times throughout this story. The supporting characters were written well and helped to make this an even better reading experience. I will definitely be on the lookout for more books by this author.

So good
Format: Paperback
When your one-night stand turns out to be the surgeon that you subpoenaed for a malpractice lawsuit. Ana, an unappreciated lawyer, has been passed up for promotion to her male colleagues yet again. A malpractice lawsuit win could be what she needs to finally get the promotion she’s worked so hard for. Rachel, a cardiac surgeon who goes above and beyond for her patients, is subpoenaed to testify in a malpractice lawsuit. Arriving at the law firm for her deposition, Rachel discovers that the lawyer for the family who filed the lawsuit is Ana Mendez. As in Ana, her one-night stand. I was excited to get my hands on this one! I loved that Ana and Rachel were so different from each other in personalities, looks, backgrounds, and religions. The differences made them unique and interesting to me. The banter was well-written, and I loved how feisty they were towards each other in the beginning. Was the dirty talk unexpected? Very much so. I was not prepared for that or for how hot things had gotten. And while I did enjoy the spice, I would’ve liked for there to have been more communication about the conflict too. The references to The Golden Girls and The Sims? Oh, I totally geeked out over that! Overall, it was a good sapphic romance that I’m sure others will enjoy. I’d like to thank NetGalley and Bold Strokes Books for the arc. This is my voluntary review.

A Conflict of Interest Worth Taking
Format: Paperback
This is the second book by Morgan Adams, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! One of the main characters, Ana Mendez, appears in Adams's first book, but that is not a requirement for reading this story about her and Dr. Rachel Cohen. One of the tropes in this book is one night to forever, and I enjoyed the time it took for the two characters to re-meet and figure out their issues. I thought their relationship developed well on the page. It was believable, had some humor, and was QUITE spicy. I liked each character's relationships with friends and family, too; they helped to make Ana and Rachel more than just two women who are well-established in their careers. A Conflict of Interest is a fascinating medical/legal story alongside a romantic one. I would recommend it to readers who want to read about two competent and mature adults who have to navigate their careers as well as a romance. Thank you to the author and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review the arc of this book!

Great read.
Format: Kindle
Cardiac surgeon Rachel Cohen is doing what she always knew she wanted to do. Her family lived close by so when she wanted or needed her family, there they were. After working most of the night operating on people who arrived hurt and scared she was more than ready for a nice cold drink. It’s There she meets the drop-dead- gorgeous woman and since it’s been a while since she’d taken some play time for herself. Ana Mendez has been trying to get herself noticed so maybe, just maybe when there is a promotion coming around her office. Ana’s family lived in the locality and like Rachel she found herself trying to make time for them but right now she hardly has time to think, getting ready for the trial that Ana felt she had to win. Ana is looking for some fun and when she goes to the same bar,who should meet is one of the sexiest women Ana has seen. Since the attraction is kind of off the charts they both decide to add, hopefully, a lot of sex to their evening, That is how it all starts. Very nice read. ARC via NetGalley/ Bold Stroke Books
