Murray, Texas is a small town where escorting a woman to church is as much a sign of a man's intent as introducing her to his mother. There is a town Christmas pageant and celebration in which everyone participates. When Kira arrives in Murray, she discovers the disparity between her fears and assumptions and real life. But she's got two weeks to convince her mother to return home in time for the Christmas holiday. However, they can't agree on anything, especially how to fight their growing attraction.
Cupid gets a nudge.
The elders hope that by acknowledging their feelings for each other, Kira and Dylan will be more accepting of Jimmy and Myra's relationship. A little more than six months ago I reviewed Geri Guillaume's Be Mine , another romance set in small-town America. Geri Guillaume seems to have created a niche or at least found her rhythm writing pleasant, homespun romances. The author, who raises horses, has woven that knowledge into the fabric of this novel. After a disjointed first chapter, No Greater Gift emerges as a worthy successor to Be Mine and goes on to establish its own identity.
