Can't Wait For Love: Just Married / The Sooner The Better
Together for the first time in one volume, rediscover two classic romances about the thrill of finding love! Only from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber.
Just Married
Before completing one more assignment, mercenary Zane Ackerman realizes he wants to leave a legacy… and an heir. He’s irresistibly drawn to Leslie Walker, an architect who is helping him restore his family home. Marrying Leslie may be his last chance. Leslie is craving a family of her own, and their passion will create a destiny for them both. If only Zane survives his last mission.
The Sooner the Better
In the process of tracking down her father, Lorraine Dancy manages to get framed for theft and pursued by the real thief, the police and a local crime boss. Ex-mercenary Jack Keller agrees to help her, although Lorraine’s reluctant to depend on a man like him. But he’s the one person who can guide her to safety. There are stormy waters ahead, including an attraction neither of them wants to feel. It’s as risky as it is intense—for both of them. The sooner he can get Lorraine home, the better!

How refreshing to finally read a book that made me laugh, cry and laugh again. I loved the fact there were six main characters. The story line was consistent and not too wordy. There was no jumping around which made it so much easier to stay engaged with the story. I never once got bored or lost in what was going on.
Lately, I was losing faith in finding really good books to read. So happy I picked this one. Might I add, this was not my first time to read Debbie Macomber's books....it had been a while.

Two books in one.
Another book you can't put down by Debbie Macomber. First book is a little short on pages but not short on excitement. The second book was amazing. Not her normal romantic novel. In the beginning you would think that there when no romance. My advice, keep reading. I loved these two stories. Read the book. You will love it too.

The first book had my emotions all over. Enjoyed the story and the characters. The second book also very good. The stubbornness of Jack - I could have screamed. Again with the emotions. The settings of each story so descriptive and different.

Sweet love story between a disfigured mercenary and an architect. Despite his best efforts, Zane fell in love with Leslie, but ghosts from his past wouldn’t keep him home for long. Their love story took unexpected turns but their love for each other never stopped.
