A bride in store

A shopkeeper story? Yes please! I love the Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman feel of this story. Sure, the doctor character was a guy and the shopkeeper a woman. But the western-town feel of the story was what brought to mind one of my favorite shows of all time. The compassion and heart and neighbors taking care of each other and looking out for each other... this definitely felt like a throwback sort of story.

I think we need more of those.

This tale was an entertaining romp from the beginning, and I especially loved the healthy competition between Eliza and William. It was fun to see them learn from each other and banter and fall in love, all while seeing each other as competition for the town's business. This book was a delight.
