Author Deeanne Gist, whose writing credits include People Magazine, brings the harsh beauty of colonial Virginia to life in her first novel. Reluctant love and shared faith blossom during the daily chores and arguments of tobacco farmer Drew O'Connor and Lady Constance Morrow. Constance is everything Drew despises in a wife - she cannot cook and she prefers mathematical equations to cleaning. Worst of all, she has red hair! But when the two are forced into a marriage of convenience, Drew soon realizes how blessed he truly is.©2005 Deeanne Gist (P)2005 Recorded Books, LLC Christian Fiction Contemporary Genre Fiction Historical Historical Fiction Romance

Love, love, love this story! And the narration was perfect. This is a wonderful addition to my library.

Excellent!

But many of the scenes went on for about 10 minutes longer than was really necessary. And although the drama between the two main characters was good and intriguing, it was kind of predictable. I probably wouldn't use another credit to buy another book by her, I'd just get it from the library and read it.

It was a good story...

I enjoyed listening to this audiobook. There were many parts that caused me to laugh out-loud but it was also suspenseful and of course romantic.

Enjoyable

Wonderful

I enjoyed this book. I normally prefer books
were the romance is secondary to a greater
plot. But even though this book has the
romance as the main plot, the humor, spunk
and humility of the heroine made her so
lovable. Her naivety could have been really
annoying if the author hadn't done such a great
job of building growth into her character. There
were some moments that were super
emotional. I definitely shed a few tears. But I
really liked the character development and relatable flaws. The narrator was very good too. Excellent performance if listened at 1.25x speed.

So many feels

I really liked this book. After a few chapters, you get used to the reader. She did a great job. I liked how the book was set in colonial times instead of the much too common western pioneer times. This book (and author in general) is a much more suggestive than other Christian romance authors. Though nothing bad is described, there are a lot of sensual scenes. Nevertheless, it was a nice romance story.

Nice read!

This was my first experience with this author, and I was captivated. The historical detail was amazing, so well-done and thorough. The character development was beautifully done, and the story was complex and engrossing. I felt like I was in colonial Virginia experiencing the tumultuous story!

Engaging and impressive!

I just can say this is my first with the author and how much I enjoyed it, at first the story gave me the insight about the life as slave living in the British colony, but then the story developed charmingly with the witty characters that overall make the story interesting, especially when the lady loves mathematics, and the man being insulted.

Lovely story And Made Me Laugh Laugh...!!!!
