Mary Connealy's "Runaway Bride" finds a Texas ranger getting more than he expected when he rescues a young woman fleeing a dangerous arranged marriage. And Melissa Jagears' "Engaging the Competition" finds a young woman forced to assist the man she's sparred with for so long after an accident leaves him helpless. Each tale is a fun blend of history and romance that will delight readers. ISBN-13: 978-0764217722 Love doesn't quite happen like these 4 young ladies planned... The Husband Maneuver by Karen Witemeyer I'd not read any of Karen Witemeyer's stories until I picked up this novella collection. And what a hilarious introduction! It was a quick read and I enjoyed the Dead Eye Dan 'excerpts' at the beginning of each chapter. | This Book received a 4 Bark rating. |
Aahh, Regina Jennings. She's been a favorite of mine for several years and this novella was no exception. Laugh-out-loud funny, with a dash of danger, and wrapped in a coming-of-age romance that is delight to read.
Runaway Bride by Mary Connealy
Mary Connealy is another favorite author. There is something that I just love about her westerns with her trademark mix of romance, humor, and blazing guns. This novella provided all of that in a small, but very enjoyable, package.
Engaging The Competition by Melissa Jagears
Melissa Jagears is still a fairly new-to-me author since I've only previously read one of her full-length books. This novella was a real, but fun, switch for me because I actually came to like the hero a little bit better than the heroine.
Overall
A delightful collection of novellas from four wonderful authors! If you enjoy any or all of these authors, like novellas, or just love a good story with plenty of humor and romance With This Ring just might be to book for you.
