Be sure to read this great story to find out. I know you will enjoy it as much as I did.
This was a short book and felt rushed in many places. I don’t know if I ever felt comfortable with the characters, though I did enjoy parts of the story. The end was not my favorite. I wish there had been more to it because it could have been really tense and exciting. The tying up of loose ends also left me a tiny bit unsatisfied. Once again it felt rushed and didn’t make the most sense. Jasmine and Zane did have good chemistry and I absolutely loved Rusty. All and all, it was a fine book
Jasmine is being forced to marry a man sho turns her stomach, plus she finds out that his mother plans on killing her once she bears him a son. Jasmine takes a chance and flees for her life.
Zane needs a wife, and needs one fast. When his mail order bride fails to show up, he meets Jasmine. He insists on marriage in name only, and then an annulment after his ranch and land are proved. Will he regret his decision?
Evil men are bad but I think evil women are even worse. Jasmine’s stepmother certainly fits that category. This is one time breaking the rules of good behavior was a really good thing. In this case, evesdropping was life saving. Margaret Tanner has given us a story with adventure, danger, romance and bravery. Jasmine didn’t just sit around and wring her hands, she acted. I really enjoyed this story.
Surviving on her fathers knowledge! This has one very capable woman, who’s not going to fall victim to her whacked step mother! She hides in plain site from who knows who? This story has plenty of twists and turns to mystery and deception. Love how the heroine is capable of surviving on the run and finds love when not expecting to fall in love with her hero! Another page turner in this series!
Jasmine's Journey is a wonderful, heart warming story! Jasmine a young woman who was raised by her ex-military father is left alone after he dies. Upon accident my overhearing his partner's wife dastardly plans for her, she escapes and ends up in a marriage of convenience. Very enjoyable with HEA ending!
Well I am out of words for headline or summary for every book I read now by Margaret Tenner. They are short sweet and very well written. I personally have a great time not only reading them but also rereading and enjoying every minute. As always would recommend reading.
This was a very enjoyable read with Zane and Jasmine. Jasmine just escapes from a forced marriage to a replacement for a mail order bride that did not show up to merry Zane. They have a few problems along the road to their true love.
Great characters! Such a great story that pulled me in from the beginning, I enjoyed the adventure Jasmine had to take on to survive. A mail order bride romance that was sweet and clean. Really enjoyed the plot and how it ended.
Another amazing story by Margaret. I love a strong and independent female character who take care of herself and her man. Exciting, adventurous and fun story. I love each and every book written by Margaret.
