Probably not one of my favs but a good Sunday read. I didn't even know this was part of a series, I actually thought they were stand alone books. I've read a couple of Julie Garwoods other books and they were very entertaining. This one runs along the same lines. It's kinda comical especially when noting the main characters were married when she was only 4 and he was 14. All in all if you like Julie Garwood, you'll like this one too.
