Bestselling author Linda Lael Miller's beloved novel of the American West shimmers with the unbridled passion of two adventurous hearts brought together first by dire convenience and second by blooming attraction. When a woman has to choose between death and marriage to a total stranger, she must be in a dire predicament... And for Jolie McKibben, about to pay by hanging for a terrible crime she didn't commit, salvation by marriage couldn't come a moment too soon. Housekeeping for Daniel Beckham, a widower who invoked the town's wedding ordinance to rescue Jolie from the gallows, is better than the alternative...but understanding the silent stranger who is now her husband might just about kill her. Daniel doesn't believe in Jolie's innocence. And despite his willingness to marry the pretty, defiant "outlaw" on the spot, the prosperous farmer had little to say to her after "I do." But for Jolie, their arrangement of convenience soon deepens into a rich and vibrant attraction that sets her trembling with desire in Daniel's presence. Somehow, she would win his love, body and soul. Unless the desperados on her trail shatter the fragile, trusting bond of husband and wife... Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Meanwhile, Jolie makes bad decision after bad decision, and Daniel has to clean up the mess every time. I did have some sympathy for him, though he's mostly a gruff irascible man who can't seem to move on with his life. The story, what there was of it in between sex scenes, was unrealistic. A woman is weaned from opium addiction in one week, the bank robbers keep hanging around despite the chance they'll get caught, and two orphan kids show up conveniently though Daniel keeps threatening to send them away. It was a lot, and most of it was not very coherent, with Daniel and Jolie fighting and then having makeup sex for most of the book. So, not a book for me. ( )
