New Release by Barbour Publishing January 1, 2015
Let’s begin with the
summary:
Place an unpolished
lawman named Nicholas Brentwood as guardian over a spoiled, pompous beauty
named Emily Payne and what do you get? More trouble than Brentwood bargains
for. She is determined to find a husband this season. He just wants the large
fee her father will pay him to help his ailing sister. After a series of dire
mishaps, both their desires are thwarted, but each discovers that no matter
what, God is in charge.
And now, my review:
This well-written story hooked me from the first pages. The
romance drew me in, as did the intrigue. I liked how the author mixed genres,
in a sense, to give us this story.
There were plenty of plot twists. And her writing voice?
Fantastic. She employed fresh prose, and I laughed aloud a few times.
I recently hosted this author on my co-hosted writers’ blog.
Her article held such a strong writing voice, I decided to set aside other books and read this ARC for
review. I’m glad I did. Sometimes I take breaks from reading novels to check out others, then come back. I didn’t with this title—I had to read straight
through. I love when that happens.
Not only is her prose very strong, but she crafted strong
characters and used skillfully layered plot elements. I found deep, true emotion
throughout.
Honestly, one of my favorite reads in a long time.
Highly recommended!
