Give Me Liberty

by Anne Brock, Suzanne Brockmann

(Precious Gem #86)

AT LONG LAST...LOVE!

For Liberty Jones, life is an open road, and in her Triumph Spitfire she cruises through it moment by thrilling moment. Until the car breaks down in Sterling--the Vermont town where she spent her childhood summers. Not only does the farm house bequeathed by her aunt inspire a flood of memories, but there's a man who catches her eye, and he's hot enough to overheat any woman's engine...

Luke Fulton has a dream-buy back the family land he lost to ski-resort developers and find the right woman to share it with. Liberty seems willing to make it come true, but when he learns of her plans to sell off her inheritance, Luke fears another summer romance is reaching the season's end. Now Luke has a new dream: to convince Liberty that life's unexpected detours can not only turn the heart around, but lead to happiness and long-lasting love...

I had to track this one down -- once I realized there was a Suzanne Brockmann book I hadn't read, I had to have it ... (it's an obsessive thing). A category romance written fairly early in her career, it didn't grab me by the throat like most of her more recent works do, but I did enjoy it. Almost surprisingly, considering what a short and simple story it is. Not a lot of plot, but characters I believe in ... Worth looking for, particularly if you're a Brockmann fan, even without the suspense aspect.

Old fashioned love story

[Fedora · Rating 4 out of 5]

l quite enjoyed this one--it's a pretty straight-forward contemporary, and I liked the interaction between Liberty (Lib) and Luke--she returns to her aunt's hometown when she inherits her aunt's house. He's lived there his whole life and had to sell off his family's land because of financial difficulties. He doesn't believe she's there to stay; she's not sure she can trust such a handsome neighbor with a player's reputation.

Took me a bit to find this one. It is just a nice short contemporary romance that is paced well for its length and doesn't try to cram a plot line that is too long for a short format. Good story
