My Review
Three delightful novellas, including a fresh release and two previously published works, make up this collection of charming country tales.
In “The Wedding Gift,” Darla’s impending marriage to Will Jackson is shaken when her old high school flame returns, prompting second thoughts. Granny Roxie and Grandpa Claud offer sage advice, guiding her toward clarity.
Following is “A Slow Dance Holiday,” a standalone Christmas romance from the Honky Tonk series. Jorja trades her dull Nashville job for a half partnership in a Texan Honky Tonk, only to discover her business partner, Cameron, is a lanky cowboy with dreams of bar ownership and ranching.
Concluding the trio is “Summertime on the Ranch,” a standalone from the Spikes and Spurs series. Becca, a former Nashville singer, now works at a winery, resisting the charms of cowboy Dalton. A canine matchmaker brings them together after six months of Becca’s initial reluctance.
Each novella offers a unique setup and romantic plot, infused with author’s down-to-earth humor and sweet, slightly spicy cowboy romance. Overall, it is a delightful blend of laughter, music, and love in the ranch country read to me.
