My Review
What an interesting concept the author used putting up a bill board to advertise for a wife, made me think this guy must have a lot of money. Then the response to the advertisement, kind of shocking and sad in some ways, but life has a way of intercepting all of this, and thus the story we embark on.
This is not the usual boy meets girl story and then happy ending, but it does have a lot of twists and turns and then Alaska enters the fold, and not just a city in the big state, but a blip on the map. A real shock for someone who has lived in a town or even the city, talk about rural!
We have quite the tale woven here, and some sour grapes, in the form of a former Finance’, now married, did not see all that happens coming, and makes for a great read.
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Harlequin and was not required to give a positive review.

I hadn't heard of this book before your blog post! It is certainly an interesting way to get a romance started! I've been wanting to read a Macomber book but not sure if I'd start with this. The historical books appeal to me more.
