After Penny's father dies and trouble starts bubbling up around her ranch, she decides to have her friend make good on her offer to send her a husband. Her friend delivers her brother-in-law, a recent widower who does not want to get married again.
This story takes place in the Dakota Territories in 1872.
This has a cute plot line with some intrigue and fairly well developed characters. The problem is that apparently no one proofread this book before publishing!!! Shame on the publisher for letting this go to press like this. There are so many that it distracts from the story and leaves you feeling frustrated.

I finally bought this one because I wanted to read it. I was sorry I spent the money, but there is now one in the system. I love romance but this was just plain boring. Not one character was unique or interesting. Spend a credit on some other, better romance.

A fun to read story. Penny Jordan does not want a husband but needs one to keep her North Dakota ranch. Her best friend has been trying to get Penny to take a husband for years and so when Penny writes saying she needs that husband, her friend sends - makes that delivers- the husband. Problem is Jace Owens does not want to be a husband as he is a grieving widower. Humor is used often to advance the typical I am falling in love with you even though I do not want to plot. There is also some suspense as Penny and Jace try to determine who is doing the rustling in the area and trying to blame it on the Lakota.
I found myself staying up late to finish the book as I wanted to see how the plot was resolved. While typos such as General Custard instead of General Custer are present, I did not find them distracting.

This one has a good story. The grammar, however, is atrocious. The book is chock full of wrong words (threw for through, loose for lose, etc.), comma splices, wrong subject-verb agreement, wrong use of verb tense, and more. As a result, it was a very hard read. Did anyone proofread this book?
