He was hired to protect Eliza, but all he wants to do is make love to her!

It was an easy read. Pretty cute but didn't have to be super involved to follow the plot. Over all enjoyable.

Had to have something to read on the flight home from the cruise. Light book...romance for a long flight. First time reading this author, the story was ok...a little transparent. Even for a romance!

This one is in the bookbox which arrived here a few days ago... thought I'd give this one a quick read as it's not the type I usually go for. Indeed, I don't often read books set in West, and this con man/Bluebeard being chased by a Pinkerton is an interesting twist. It will stay in the box though.
