Hearts Entwined
The Love Knot by Karen Witemeyer â A Ladies of Harper's Station Novella
Clair Nevin was a runner. She ran away from a bad situation in New York instead of facing it and ran into a bad situation in Seymour. But landing in Harper's Station had been good for her. And now, her sister needed her help. Only the person her sister sent to deliver the package had Clair ready to put her running shoes on once again. Harper's Station is a wonderful series about a town for woman to escape to. Only now, a few men have been allowed in too. Very good series.
The Tangled Ties That Bind by Mary Connealy â A Kincaid Brides Novella
Connor Kincaid, Seth's son, had his dad's wild eyes when things got out of control. Like now. After being gone for five years, he came home to claim the only woman he'd ever love...only to find out she had other plans that included leaving Rawhide...and him. Love Mary Connealy's humor in her writing and her lovable characters.

Bound and Determined by Regina Jennings â A Fort Reno Novella
The reader can meet Private Bradley Willis in the first book, Holding the Fort, where his sister's story is told. He's a reckless, fun-loving guy. When he's sent on a mission to help a retired captain, it's more than he expects. And he finds he can be serious and protective when a beautiful lady needs him to do so. I love the author's writing and humor.
Tied and True by Melissa Jagears â A Teaville Moral Society Novella
Marianne Lister and Calvin Hochstetler may be worlds apart to some people, but Marianne doesn't care about being from a wealthy family. She cares about finding a good man to love...the kind of man Calvin is. Because of his past though, it's tougher to convince Calvin that he could ever be good enough to care for her. Great story and characters.

Novella's are such a wonderful change of pace in reading. While a good long book is really to get into is great, I love how novella's allow you have a have a âsnackâ and the treat of moving on to the next story! Hearts Entwined is exceptional as are all the authors! This collection of historical romances is top notch!
The Love Knot by Karen Witemeyer, has an unusual plot which I thoroughly enjoyed. Misunderstanding drove Claire and Pieter apart years ago but a surprising event brings them back together. This is a beautiful story of forgiveness and what true love really is. It can overcome the strongest stubbornness and pride.
The Tangled Ties That Bind by Mary Connealy, was a delightful read, filled with so much humor. Conner has been gone from home for 5 years but returns with big plans for his future to marry his childhood love Maggie. After 5 years she has quit waiting and has moved on with her life. He definitely took her for granted. Both are equally set on pursuing their dreams and it doesn't set well with each other. Conner is determined not to give up. Through his deep love and sacrifices for Maggie, God brings about amazing things.
Bound and Determined by Regina Jennings. Ms. Jennings books are hard to put down so this story was a page turner too! This novella had a lot of humor in it too. (Love that!) Bradley Willis is a private in the cavalry. His youthful impulsiveness though with good intent has him âpunishedâ with a mission to carry out. To his surprise it is escorting a Captain and is very attractive daughter, Ambrosia, across the scorching Texas plain. Oh and the captain's beloved camels! Bradley and Ambrosia's feisty personalities were fun to watch play out. Learning about the camels was fascinating and their usefulness to the Texas Calvary in the mid 1800's.
Tied and True by Melissa Jagears kept me turning pages. It is the story of poor boy falls in love with rich girl but with a twist to it. Marianne's parents had her life planned out for her up to the detail of whom she would marry, an equally wealthy childhood friend, David. Her heart though had made other plans as she fell in love with his poor secretary, Calvin. He returned her feelings but strongly believed it would not work. The things she did to prove her love were incredible! I liked her compassion and true servant's heart in the Lord. Not only her family's bank account stood in the way of convincing Calvin but memories of a difficult childhood. Marianne truly displayed the motto, âActions speak louder than wordsâ to show him that her love was what was important, not rich lifestyle was all she wanted. My what spunk she had! A sweet love story.
