The Perfect Match features Rowena Brown, a free-spirited heroine who is thisclose to being a total ditz. She love animals - a major point in her favor - but she often acts in a way that causes her staid family to wonder about her. As for the hero, his name is Cash Lawless. I don’t think I’ve eve ...
One of my favorite historical romances is Kimberly Cates' Gather the Stars. When I saw that her latest contemporary was set in Scotland, I jumped at it. As leery as I am lately of straight contemporary romances, I’m glad I picked this one.
