This is my first Marcia Lynn McClure book. That cover is FABULOUS. I didn't know what to expect when I started reading. It's a very short story (something like 78% of the file, the rest being commentary from the author and previews to other books by her) and it's very clean. Now, I don't want to have a huge drama and misunderstandings and twists just to further the story, but this one was remarkably chirpy and sweet. The only drama of any kind was the death of some farm animals.While I do read books that have steamy scenes in them, I also enjoy sweet romances that fade to black or just contain kisses. It's all about the UST and how that's handled.I did have a few issues with this one. The narrative in AGLM was overwrought, full of exclamation points, overused words and phrases, and repetitive in the extreme. The funny scenes carried on way too long and what had been a funny joke to begin with quickly became just cringe worthy.If you are looking for mental cotton candy, this is the book for you. It's sweet, chirpy, and there is no angst at all. Sometimes one needs that kind of book in hand.
