Saw him perform live many years ago in Branson, MO. It was so cool. That song just makes you want to stand taller, try harder to make this Country better and a blessing to those around it. One of my favorite patriotic songs.
MY TAKE:
Carol Cox always delivers a pleasurable read. Trouble in Store was all the fun, sassy give and take you would expect between the Male and Female leads, plus a lot more. The mystery twist and suspense wasn't anticipated but it certainly amped up the plot. Nothing like danger to raise the stakes in love and business. The faith aspect is nicely woven in as a real life choice and not just something mentioned. I appreciate that. I had a hard time putting this one down and had it read in nothing flat. It's definitely worth the time.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Fired from her most recent governess position, Melanie Ross must embrace her
last resort: the Arizona mercantile she inherited from her cousin. But Caleb
Nelson is positive he inherited the mercantile, and he's not about to let
some obstinate woman with newfangled ideas mess up all he's worked for. He's
determined to get Melanie married off as soon as possible, and luckily there are
plenty of single men in town quite interested in taking her off his
hands.
The problem is, Caleb soon realizes he doesn't want her to marry up with any of them. He's drawn to Melanie more every day, and he has to admit some of her ideas for the store unexpectedly offer positive results.
But someone doesn't want the store to succeed, and what used to be just threatening words has escalated into deliberate destruction and lurkers in the night. When a body shows up on the mercantile steps--and the man obviously didn't die from natural causes--things really get dangerous. Can Melanie and Caleb's business--and romance--survive the trouble that's about to come their way?
