Her Hesitant Heart (2013) - Plot & Excerpts

Ok I have a few books by Carla Kelly, 8 to be exact. This book however was just ok. I am an adult and when I read a romance I want an author to write for an adult. It seems to me that Ms. Kelly wrote Her Hesitant Heart for a 15 year old and not a woman with over 30 years of romance readings.I found nothing wrong with the story just the passion between the H and h, there was none. Long soulful looks and hand touching just is not believable when you have the two main characters in the story having been married before. Sorry but 2 1/2 stars is all I can give this one. Have to tell you if this was the first book I read of Ms. Kelly's I would not have purchased any others. The premise of the story centers on Susanna Hopkins, a school teacher, coming out west to start a new life after a nightmare existence in Pa. Tired and hungry after two days of traveling, Susanna is just about at the end of her tether when her train finally arrives in Cheyenne. She's bound for a new life in a Western garrison town. Then she discovers she doesn't even have enough money to pay for the stagecoach! Luckily for her, the compassionate Major Joseph Randolph, a doctor, is heading in the same direction.Sounds wonderful but don't be fooled. Story might be good, the characters believable but the love, passion and sizzle in this romance was non existent. I really wish they could have stated in Amazon when I purchased this romance "oh by the way passion and sizzle are holding hands and long soulful looks". Give me a break someone should explain the difference between adult and teenage reads to romance authors out there. Can not recommend this book. I actually thought that this book was pretty good! I like a good old time westerny book BUT if you are looking for something that is fast-paced then this one is not the book to pick up! If you are looking for a slowly developing sweet story then by all means give this a whirl! Just don't expect to be on the edge of your seat! It really is just a book about a woman that builds her life from the ashes and finds love and happiness! Always fun! For my content aware peeps-there is about 3/4ths of a page of a love scene but it's pretty non-descriptive and between a husband and a wife on their honeymoon so I wasn't too shocked by it! If you are used to her newest Cedar Fort fiction just know that this is not published by them! Just so you are aware of that! :D All-in-all good!
