RT Rating

This wonderful collection of 12 love stories doesn't rely on sex to get messages of love and romance across to readers. It's nice for those times when a quick read is all you need.

In "Prickly Heat" by Marty Tidwell, foreman Pete supported Goldie in her times of need for years. Now that he wants to settle down and marry, will she sacrifice her heart for him? Sunny's friends dare her to go dancing with Jake in Nancy Connally's "The Double-Dog-Dare Dance." Christine Crocker's "The Ring" has Jeannie, after 25 years of marriage, needing to tell Charlie something that may upset him. A lost bet puts Eva at a dance with Baxter, the most sought-after bachelor in Brown County in "Someone to Run To," by Mary Malcolm.

"Shotgun Seduction," by Angi Morgan, has Sean taking a job that will bring him back to the woman he loves and was forced to leave. A warrant for the arrest of her aunt's godson brings Nicole to Texas, but it's the godson himself that may keep her there in Arline Todd's "Bounty Hunting, Texas Style." Rounding out this collection are stories
by Jen FitzGerald, Nikki Hollaway, L.A. Mitchell, Gina Lee Nelson, Beth Shriver and a second story by Tidwell. (Wild Rose Press, Feb., 240 pp., $11.99)
