Sophie Calvert has planned every second of her life.
That all changes after she meets Ian Ridley. Suddenly the woman who never wanted to get married is forgetting everything -- including her plans. Which is why she ends up eloping...and why she runs once she discovers that the only reason Ian married her is that she's pregnant with his child.
Come on down to the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. You'll find the Calverts, a family that's been living and loving here for over a hundred years. A few Calverts have left, but somehow they always seem to come home....
Anna Adams was in the US Navy, also working on a business degree full-time, when her first child was born. That little guy changed her life--created priorities. She wanted her children to grow up, believing they could do the most unlikely things.
Like writing--which she'd done since she was old enough to force someone to listen to stories and then old enough to pick up a pencil and a piece of paper.
She switched to an English degree--and ignored her husband when he asked if she planned to "open an English store," and eventually found jobs doing any kind of writing. And she learned to write books.
Twenty-something books later, she's a USA Today Bestseller, and she's still believes in unlikely things. Like true love that everyone can believe in.
I've been reading a few Anna Adams books here and there to broaden my romance repertoire since these are all clean romances, and that's not usually my cup of tea. The first couple I read were kind of fun, so I kept adding books to my list. I'm going to go ahead and stop at this one. It was all over the place: hard to follow, disjointed, and focused on anything and everything except for the romance. That, and it was just plain boring. I ended up DNFing it at about sixty percent.
I normally try to stay away from books that center on the male and female leads being thrown together due to a child but it is amazing what you will read to pass the time when you can sleep. I wasn't impressed as yet another I delved into a plot line that has been recycled for years.
This was surprisingly good for a Harlequin. It actually involved a couple slowly working on and trying to develop their relationship. I rather enjoyed the read.
