Book review: A Flare of the Heart by Jacquie Rogers

28007849


Blurb:

Celia Valentine Yancey has no illusions she’ll ever enjoy wedded bliss, so chooses marriage over spinsterhood even if she has to marry a man her father picked. On the way to meet her groom, she endures armed robbery, a stagecoach wreck, a dozen hungry baby pigs—and an incorrigible farmer. Ross Flaherty retired from bounty hunting to become a farmer but now Celia has brought his worst fear to his door—in more ways than one. A ferocious wolf-dog and a dozen piglets are no match for this determined lady. Which is more dangerous—the Sully Gang or Miss Celia Yancey?

My Review:

Looking for some giggles and sweet story to enjoy? Then grab up Celia and Ross's story and get ready to fall in love!

These two meet under some rather adventurous circumstances and giggles abound while sparks fly and hearts awaken. I adored Ross and how he was still all bad-boy tough guy and with how he treated Celia. Celia proved that she was the perfect match for him, being both strong, but yet soft for him.

This is an adorable little story to spend a couple hours with -- just wish it was longer! (haha! isn't that the truth more often than not!)

    2. Thanks Cheryl and Michelle! I wish I could take credit for the humor but every time I write something funny, no one laughs, so I just go on my merry way. LOL

      Sorry I'm late in responding but we've been on the road so I have to wait until I have wifi to do anything. Sometimes it gets a little frustrating.

  3. This is a lighthearted story of finding love in the most unusual places. I mean, who can resist baby piggies. lol

    1. Babies are cute and hard to not want to snuggle with (after a bath).

  4. Michelle, I'm deeply grateful and touched that you read and reviewed my story. I loved Celia and Flare. It's always fun to write a heroine who isn't picture perfect, and Flare, well, he just wormed his way into my heart. I'm so glad you enjoyed them, too.

  5. Besides it being such a good story, I think the theme of "not picture perfect "really stood out and made me fall more into the story. By the end, she was her own version of perfect!
