I loved this book! This book had widely varied ratings on Amazon--some loved it and others hated it. Most of the people who hated it complained about the hero and how rude he was not to marry the heroine right away. This is my response to that:he reminded me of a grumpy bear determined to keep away anyone that will hurt him. At the same time he showed that he cared very much for our heroine pretty early on. He certainly love story.Luke is a man who wants nothing more than for people to mind their own business and leave him alone. Which would work just fine if not for his nosy brother and sister-in-law. Determined to get him to wake up to life, they hatch a plan to send for a mail order bride for Luke. They use partial letters that Luke wrote before his foot was taken in the civil war. Sarah has lost everything in the war, her husband, home and families holdings. Through Luke's letters she gets a glimpse of a true gentleman and pictures an older man who she could learn to love and start a new life with. Neither of them are expecting the other or the feelings of desire that spring to life. Will these two strangers give the love they both crave to give?Once I picked up this book I couldn't put it down. I got lost in getting to know them and feel like the author had an amazing grip on human nature and wrote a beautiful story about two souls who were desperately needing to love each other.
