Charlotte Beauchamp era la mujer más exasperante que Tex Brubaker hubiera conocido jamás. Con su boquita descarada y su arrollador entusiasmo, entró en la vida del solitario texano como si fuera un salvaje tornado. Todo comenzó cuando ella heredó un cerdo cuyo valor ascendía a un millón de dólares, un animal que Tex, como etólogo, se comprometió en educar. Pero enfrentarse con la preciosa heredera era harina de otro costal. Brubaker, que ante todo quería permanecer soltero, sabía que lo mejor era guardar las distancias. De otro modo acabaría por acceder a mucho más...
Carolyn was born and raised in Southern California. When she was five, her family moved to Oregon. Carolyn graduated from high school in 1976 in Silverton, Oregon and enrolled at Oregon State University, where she majored in broadcast/speech communications. In 1978, she married her college sweetheart, Matt, and, in 1981, she graduated from OSU and moved to Portland. Carolyn worked as a producer for local television commercials.[1]
On their sixteenth wedding anniversary, Carolyn and her husband welcomed their first daughter, Madeline Alexa. A second daughter, Olivia RoseAnne, followed four years later. While her daughters were small, Zane wanted to find a career that she could follow from home. In March 1993 she finished her first romance novel, The Wife Next Door,which was soon purchased by Silhouette.[1] Since then, Carolyn has had almost 30 novels published in the Silhouette category lines, with over one million copies in print worldwide.[1][2] Her work has been reviewed multiple time in Romantic Times, which describes her work as "diverting," although sometimes "light on conflict."[3] Her books are "strong on humor, snappy repartee and passionate moments."[3]
Two of her novels have been inspirational romances, written under the pen name Suzy Pizzuti. These were released in 1998 and 1999
This is one of my favorite books, so to be honest, this was far from my first reading. Good for a few hours of enjoyment, romance, and laughter, each of Carolyn Zane's Brubaker series is outstanding entertainment. While each of these books are fine as stand-alones, they're even more enjoyable when read consecutively. One of my favorite aspects of her books are even her heroes are stinkers sometimes. In this one, I'd have liked to give good old Tex a kick in the seat of his pants and tell him to quit being so judgmental. And tell his love interest to get over herself. Yet, Carolyn manages to have you rooting for both of them. (There is a pet pig involved, so this was my horribly sad attempt at a pun.) i can't recommend this or any of her Brubaker books any higher. Read just one, and you'll be online looking for more, more, and more.
