Spencer "Spence" Hogan, Sheriff of Mustang Creek, resides
in the small
town surrounded by beautiful mountains in Wyoming where he
lives with
his dog, Harley, and horse, Reb. Best man at Hadleigh
Stevens and
Tripp Galloway's wedding, he finds himself in close
proximity yet again
with Melody Nolan. The three friends, Hadleigh, Bex and
Melody created
a marriage pact just prior to the wedding to see each of
them happily
married.
Melody, a gifted jewelry artist, even created charms for
their
bracelets in honor of this pact. Melody is hesitant at
being bridesmaid
where she will be paired with Spence, the man who turned
down her
marriage proposal nine years ago and broke her heart.
Considered a womanizer or lady's man, Spence is definitely
misunderstood as every woman he has dated since falls
short of his love
for Melody. The proposal was only turned down to force
her to complete
college. Melody designs unique jewelry and lives with her
cats, Ralph,
Waldo and Emerson in the home where she has her studio.
Once again,
the two are thrown together and Spence stalks out of the
get together
with Melody thrown over his shoulder. Of course, Melody
is unable to
deny the hot sex and love she still holds for Spence.
Fighting with all her
might to keep from getting involved again, things begin to
get
complicated as the small community becomes invaded with
break-ins
where only antiques are stolen. The priceless antique
diamond Melody is
working with on commission has a secret destination for
the client
unknown to her. Will history repeat itself? Solving the
thefts could point
things in the right direction.
THE MARRIAGE CHARM is another in The Brides of Bliss
County series, with the three friends,
Hadleigh, Bex and Melody of Mustang Creek, Wyoming. Linda
Lael Miller
never fails to produce a new and exciting western themed
novel and
always with a truly unforgettable plot and fresh hot
characters. Her
characters are romantic and certainly always include the
handsome and
rugged cowboy. I read each and every book she publishes
and will
absolutely continue to do so. This author is exceptionally
gifted with her
story telling talents and imagination.
The women of Bliss County have a pact—to find husbands.
The
right husbands.
One already has: Hadleigh
Stevens, who married rancher Tripp Galloway a few months
ago. Now Melody Nolan thinks it's her turn. Melody has
recently found success as a jewelry designer, and her work
is the focus of her life. She's not exactly unhappy, but
she
wants more. She's always been attracted to Spence Hogan,
the
local chief of police, but she's convinced that Spence, a
notorious charmer, isn't what you'd call husband
material.
Spence is a good cop who isn't
scared
of anything—except love. And he's done everything he can
to
preserve his reputation as a womanizer—a reputation that
keeps marriage-minded women, including Melody, at bay. And
yet…there's something about Melody he can't forget.
Something his heart can't ignore.
