A Small Town Bride

amazon barnes & noble Goodreads

Amy Lyndon is tired of being the Poor Little Rich Girl of Shenandoah Falls. In her prominent family, she’s the ordinary one – no Ivy League education and no powerful career. But when her father tries to marry her off, she knows it’s finally time to stand up for herself, despite the consequences. Now that she’s cut off from the family fortune, her first challenge is to fight her attraction to her handsome new boss.

When Amy shows up looking for work with his landscaping crew, Dusty McNeil thinks there’s no way such a pampered princess will ever get her hands dirty. But as Amy proves him wrong and gets down to the nitty gritty, Dusty’s admiration turns to like, then lust – and then love.

But can a high-society woman like Amy ever fall for a man like him?

Hott Review:

Contentious and emotional.

A Small Town Bride isn’t a sweet and simple romance. It’s packed to the brim with family drama, growing pains, and unending love.

It’s fun watching Amy grow up. Her descent from shopaholic to homeless is desperate but you can’t help but cheer for her as she makes a comeback on her terms and in her own way. I thoroughly enjoyed watching her overcome overwhelming circumstances to become a real person. Plus there’s that romance 😉

On the downside, the are a lot of characters to get straight in A Small Town Bride. They’re introduced slowly so they don’t cause as much confusion as one might anticipate. Plus, they each bring their own flair that’s essential to your enjoyment.

You won’t want to miss this Chapel of Love story!

Author Bio:

Hope RamsayHope Ramsay was born in New York and grew up on the North Shore of Long Island, but every summer Momma would pack her off under the care of Aunt Annie to go visiting with relatives in the midlands of South Carolina. Her extended family includes its share of colorful aunts and uncles, as well as cousins by the dozens, who provide the fodder for the characters you’ll find in Last Chance, South Carolina. Hope earned a BA in Political Science from the University of Buffalo, and has had various jobs working as a Congressional aide, a lobbyist, a public relations consultant, and a meeting planner. She’s a two-time finalist in the Golden Heart, and is married to a good ol’ Georgia boy who resembles every single one of her heroes. She has two grown children and a couple of demanding lap cats. She lives in Fairfax, Virginia where you can often find her on the back deck, picking on her thirty-five-year-old Martin guitar.
