This is a charming holiday romance with lots of smiles and laughs and a great addition to this series. The author gives you a wonderful story of misunderstanding where things start flying and tempters rise. This all in the first few pages. I just LOVED it. This is a short quick read that will keep you turning the pages to find out what else these two have up their sleeves as they bait each other.
Crispin comes a pond a little girl setting under a tree he is so sweet, caring and loving it really touches your heart. When he places the little girl on his horse a mad lady come and attacks him yelling let my sister go. This is when it hits the fan so to speak and things get very interesting.
Crispin has been a little of a rake. He has changed his way but it does seem his rep is still damage. He is a lovely character which any women would be proud to call her own if she could catch him. I love his humor and his baiting to bring a smile to Gwen face. He is just a sweet heart who puts family first.
Gwen has been hurt in the past and is will to settle for some sweet, kind there doesn't have to be passion just any old guy would do. She has her sights set one on but with Crispin coming in the picture she finds the other lacking. When she finds out who she attacked she is mortified. There is from batting back and forward between the do as the dance the dance of love. I really like Gwen her heart is in the right place, she is kind and loving. She just protects those around her.
I loved the baiting these two did, the humor keeps you smiling. Each are a lot alike and family comes first. Her brother-in-law and sister are so protective of her. This book is all about family and the love they give each other. The wonderful sister who gets into trouble and the baiting they do with each other. This is a pretty clean read with family values. For me this was a win win read from the first page to the last. With it being a short read there isn't a lot you can say without giving the plot away. The ending is wonderful with more misunderstanding Gwen sure does have a tempter. I sure hope that Crispin is prepare to see it for the rest of his life but first he must win the girl.
I love this authors writing style the way she brings her stories together giving a well written story of sorrow, pain, love and humor. If you pick up one of her book than you know the reason she has won so many awards. I have come to know when I see this authors name it will be a book full of all the things that makes a wonderful romance. I can't wait to read more in this series. They are so full of life, love and happiness.
