The Rancher’s Want Ad Mix-Up by Megan Besing
Reviewed by Sandra Merville Hart
Della Mae Wagner answers a want ad for a teacher and heads to Missouri, hoping to heal from a broken engagement.
Widower Hank Lamson doesn’t want a teacher for his three young sons, and especially not a wife, as his parents advertised to provide. Women only wanted his money. He was having no part in it.
I enjoyed Della’s interaction with the children, especially the youngest boy. For someone with no teaching experience, she showed lots of wisdom.
The characters were likable. Some scenes and situations dragged a bit. Hank’s parents had corresponded with Della before she came. I was as surprised at their warm welcome at the first meeting as I was at Hank’s continuing unfriendliness, though that was explained. My interest picked up a little later in the story.
I’m happy that Love Inspired Historical Inspirational Romances are being published again!
