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.
