About the author

Joyce Thies met her husband in college and it was love at first sight. Readers might recognize her as the Joyce half of Janet Joyce (or Jenna Lee Joyce), the other half was Janet Bieber. She also wrote a romance as Melissa Scott, "Territorial Rights", but is now but is now writing under her own name. While researching a historical about early Montana, Joyce fell in love with the beautiful philosophies held by the Absaroka Indian tribe and wanted to share them with her contemporary readers.

Reviews

[Adrianna · Rating 2 out of 5]

This was a bit of a wacky road trip/romance novel and pretty thin on plot as the book is only a slim 186 pages. The hero and heroine are chasing after their grandparents who "eloped" but end up caught in a trap that the grandparents designed together. Not super realistic but kind of a fun plot. The kooky characters are a bit annoying, but the prolonged sensuous scenes make up for some of the annoying side plot stuff. I liked how the main character ran her own business in a masculine job (accounting), though she's a bit of a pushover at times. The writing is decent and flows well. This is an old Harlequin gem.
