Winnie appears to excel with stories where a free-spirited heroine meets an uptight hero or vice versa. This book is a story of the former romance. Sadie Lassiter is the free-spirited heroine and Eli Reynolds is the uptight hero.<\/p>\n<p>Eli wants and thinks he needs to find a proper wife who will be a good step-aunt to the little sister in his care. And Sadie is not even on his long list much less his short list. She&#8217;s too carefree and too casual and not the least interested in housekeeping.<\/p>\n<p>Then a storm strands them together for a night and the gossips put their heads together. Eli&#8217;s plans and Sadie&#8217;s plans go out the window when Eli proposes marriage to avert scandal.<\/p>\n<p>However, it seems that this marriage might be in God&#8217;s plans for both of them.<\/p>\n<p>A fun read with a delightful heroine who is a match for the very proper Mr. Reynolds!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/review\/list\/689372-lyn\">View all my reviews<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To purchase, click the cover.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B004MPRYXU\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B004MPRYXU&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=lyco-20&amp;linkId=NOPNFN5CQXQ4JXU5\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B004MPRYXU&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=lyco-20\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"http:\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=lyco-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B004MPRYXU\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">If you&#8217;d like to win my copy, please leave a comment.
