Sixty Acres And A Bride (2012) - Plot & Excerpts

I had seen this floating around my goodreads and amazon recommendations, based on similar books I'd read. But I kept avoiding it. The cover didn't really appeal to me, nor the title, and when reading the synopsis, I wasn't really interested in the Mexican historical aspect. That's when I realized that with historical fiction, I'm primarily interested in English, American and maaayybe a little French. Not much else.I've been craving a good historical romance and after loving Ms. Jennings' novella and third book in the series, I decided to give it a shot.OHMYGOSH I loved it! There was such a complexity of emotions and depth to the relationships. I loved that Weston didn't cheapen his first marriage by reducing it to less than it was. He loved her even though he finally allowed her her share in her own death. I loved the biblical themes and the connection to Ruth and Boaz.Despite the characters growth throughout the novel, they were still consistent to their personalities, the strengths and weaknesses.Their reservations and the barriers to their relationship were believeable and understandable. This is a book I will read again and again. An enjoyable, clean read. I love the romance genre and was very impressed by the way this novel retained my attention, without the excess *steamy* scenes. The romance was sweet but still had tension points which kept it interesting. Another thing that I enjoyed about this book is that the religious part of it was not too strong a presence in the novel, it was present but it wasn't forceful (in my opinion anyway). In fact, I think it contributed a lot to the novel.

A Hannah and Boaz like story. Rosa comes with her mother in-law back to family home. Great book.
