Listed as drama,  I was expecting a tirade on arranged marriages in the 19th century South. What "Broodmare Bride " delivered is a hilarious courtship between Belle and Morgan that kept me laughing from beginning to end.At 26, Belle is considered a spinster. Plus she is the lone female lawyer within three counties, thus making her unmarriageable material. Enter Morgan Ward, a widower and one of the richest men in Kentucky plus the best looking one in at least 3 counties. He blackmails Belle to marry him. And in a span of 12 hours, their unconventional courtship and marriage landed them in several unexpected situations.***SPOILER ALERT***For the first time ever, I will classify an erotica story as PG 13! Oh, the sex scenes are there and they sizzle, but the words used by the author are something that even nuns will not frown upon. Just for that, it is already an interesting read.Another thing is a subplot in the story that gives a glimpse on how life is during the 19th century in the South. I can't write anything anymore without spoiling the story for you. Needless to say, you will enjoy it when you get to that part of the book.
