I have enjoy both books in this ongoing series. This book can be read as a stand-a-long but it would be better to read the first in this series "Wooing the Schoolmarm" first. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.
This story is a sweet romance between a man that doesn't want to be wanted just for his money and a girl that don't want to be wanted just because she is beautiful. Mix in some wonderful characters from the village and you have a very nice story. ;-)
