Synopsis:
Abigail Stuart thought she was Jeremiah Calhoun's widow. But Jeremiah Calhoun is very handsome, very alive, and very perplexed. Most inconvenient indeed.
With few options of her own, nurse Abigail Stuart agrees to marry her patient, a gravely wounded soldier calling himself Jeremiah Calhoun. They arrange a quick ceremony before he dies, giving Abigail the rights to his Ozark farm and giving Jeremiah the peace of knowing someone will care for his ailing sister after he's gone--a practical solution for both of them.
After the war, Abigail fulfills her side of the bargain--until the real Jeremiah Calhoun shows up, injured but definitely alive, and wastes no time in challenging Abigail's story. Abigail is flummoxed. After months of claiming to be his widow, how can she explain that she's never seen this Jeremiah Calhoun before? How can she convince him that she isn't trying to steal his farm? And will she find a way to stay, even though this practical arrangement has turned into a most inconvenient marriage?

My Review:
I first read this book a few years ago and it was one of my favorite books at the time. So I decided to read it again because a book that good deserves to be re-read don't you think? It was just as good as I'd remembered it!
Regina Jennings has a knack for coming up with very unique plots. I've read a few of her books and they're always unlike any other.
You will love Abigail and Jeremiah! Sure, sometimes they're so clueless about each other's true feelings it makes you want to give them a few knocks on the head...but they have personalities that will just endear themselves to you. Abigail's my favorite. No surprise there, because I always seem to love the spirited heroines the best. And the tension and chemistry between the two was top-notch because they both have a stubborn side.
If you haven't read this book yet go read it! And if you already have...well, go pick it up again!
