Promises (Avalon Romance) (Love's Valley)
In the final installment in Brown's Love Valley series set in the rough-and-tumble post-Civil War Reconstruction era, Indigo Hamilton's wedding day is finally here, and everything is just perfect until her groom's first wife--a Southerner whom Thomas had been told was dead--appears at the church with their son in her arms. Indigo, as always, is only concerned with her own status and feelings, but Flannon Sullivan goads her into resuming her life despite her mortification and blighted hopes. He is also there when a Klan assassin, last seen inRedemption(2006), attacks Indigo, rendering aid and serving as bodyguard after Indigo recuperates. Enforced propinquity ensures that the two find themselves unwillingly attracted by each other's good points, while continuing to strike sparks off each other's perceived weaknesses. Brown ties up all the loose ends nicely, and readers will enjoy seeing Indigo finally get her own happy ending.Lynne WelchCopyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved
