My Thoughts
Four Stories and Four Authors!
First Story "Spitfire Sweetheart" is just what the title says. Maizy a spitfire tomboy that is her neighbor's burr under his saddle. Rylan tries hard to keep his distance from her for fear of letting her take up a big space in his heart. But due to her causing him to be injured she is forced to care for him and his ranch while she is also forced by her father to dress and act like a lady while doing so. This shoots down any chance of him protecting his heart from her
Mary Connealy writes a fun story with characters I'd love to spend more time with. I love a story with a head strong woman determined to be herself. Our Father in Heaven has a plan for us and we should not fight against Him and let His will be done.
Second Story "Love Letter to the Editor". A woman that is determined to stand on her own cognizance. She is hoping to become an Editor or Managing Editor. But to her great surprise her father has hired someone else to be editor of the paper. Jack Lugrove feels bad in that he was not welcome as editor by Molly yet he will not be detoured from doing his job. Molly wants to prove herself to her father and at the same time find some way of ridding the paper and herself of Jack.
Robin Lee Hatcher has given Molly fortitude that could be her downfall.. Truth is God and the truth will prevail. There is romance, intrigue and especially faith and hope in God. People sometimes take a path they are uncomfortable with not realizing it is God leading us. Molly was in danger of letting her pride get the best of her. Great lesson to be learned from this story.
Third Story "A Cowboy for Katie" Recently Katie's life has been horrific. She is left alone to rebuild her ranch and her life. The problem is she refuses the advances of any man fearing all they want is her land. She is determined to rebuild on her own. She relents and hires a wandering cowboy. She learns he is the perfect man for the getting the work done without moving into her fragile personal space. Will Treb realizes there is more to be rebuilt than just the ranch house and barn. He notices Katie is damaged emotionally which causes her to have night terror along with mistrust of anyone, including him.
Debra Clopton writes a heart-wrenching story about a young woman barely holding on to reality. the author reveals how God will provide if we ask and believe he will answer, which happened in the form of Will Treb. I fell in love with the sweet patient character of Will Treb. Be sure you have a box of tissues on hand it is a tear jerk-er.
Fourth Story "Courting Trouble". This is the perfect title for this story. Grace Davenport just can't seem to get a break in life. Grace's young son attempts to hire Brock Daniels, a local attorney that does not really want the job. But the young boy touched Brock's heart and after he does some investigating on the woman and her charge of murdering her husband he decided he would take the case.
I asked myself, "Could this woman really be guilty or is she being railroaded by some evil force?". In this story Margaret Brownley created the wonderful character, Brock Daniels in that he was so determined and lead by God to help this broken family. I loved the sweet well mannered young boy he will pull at your heart strings as he did mine. It is never too late when lives have been broken for so long to be lifted up and healed of by God. This story was mysterious, with a growing romance and healing grace.
I highly recommend this collection of four books in one.
I rated this book 5 out of 5
