Summary: Not 'Baby, Oh Baby"
Review: Back Cover:"A teary-eyed bride in a long, white getup and veil was on Luke O'Dell's property--with no husband in sight. Uh-oh! Runaway bride on her honeymoon alone at his Lazy O Dude Ranch! Luke knew too well what happened when he comforted a sobbing woman, and no way was sweet Josie Randall getting anywhere near his strong shoulders... Josie's two-timing groom-not-to-be had done her a huge favor. She'd never even imagined she could love a man so much, until she'd looked into Luke's dark brown eyes and saw forever. But how was a woman to convince six feet, two inches of nonmarrying man that she was the woman he didn't even know he was waiting for?" I bought this book solely on the writer being Robin Wells, who wrote 'Baby, Oh Baby'. Unfornately, this book is not of the same caliber. The 'conflict' seemed forced and took a whole book to resolve. Luke's 'oh shucks' demeanor was not attractive. It turned me off that a grown man would use phrases like 'oh criminy' or 'good gravy'. I wouldn't speak to this guy! :) This story seemed old although written in 1997. I read this book months ago and didn't want to write a poor review, but after looking through this again...this is my honest opinion. Buy 'Baby, Oh Baby'. That is a wonderful book.
