Carrie's grandfather and Jed's grandfather had owned a ranch 50/50 and her recently deceased grandfather wanted her and Jed to marry so the ranch would still be owned by both families.  Therefore, her grandfather's will stated that if she and Jed were not married by a certain date, the ranch would be given to an orphanage.  That "certain date" is today so they must marry before midnight or forfeit the ranch.Carrie had been unaware of the terms of the will until Jed showed up and told her they had to marry TODAY.  For some reason Carrie blamed Jed for the fact that the two of them had to marry even though he was just the messenger.  He was no more to blame for the terms of the will than she was so I lost all patience with her because she spent so much time being hostile toward him.  I couldn't understand why that hostility could not be directed toward the person who set the terms of the will...her grandfather.While I was reading this book I put it aside and read another book and then went back to it.  Then I put it aside again and read another book and then went back to it again.  I did this about ten times so I guess you could say it didn't hold my interest very well.  The first half of the book just seemed to meander around without really going anywhere.  It was not until about half way through the book when Jed's overbearing grandmother showed up uninvited at the ranch that I really got interested enough to go ahead and finish it.  I just wish the first half of the book had been as good as the second half.  .
