Olivia
Matchmaker & Co. book 5; by Cynthia Woolf
I really wanted
to knock Olivia into next week from the start of this book. She made me mad. However, I did like the book.
Olivia is the
manager of the Matchmaker Company. Her good friend Maggie is the owner and not
too long ago married a client in Colorado. Olivia was finding mail order brides
for men in the west. What got me about her is she deceived one of these men by
posing as a bride. She was going to use the money to help her dying sick mother,
but before the money got there her mother did die. She tells Maggie that she
never intended to be a bride for the man and Maggie told her to get on the next
train. She agrees and leaves the next day. However, a twist happens on her way
to the train and she really does not think about it.
Tyler is looking
for a wife as he is a widower and has a young baby, like months old. His wife
died in childbirth. He needs to run his ranch and he cannot run it well this a
baby on his hip. He sends money to Olivia so she can move to Colorado and
become his new bride. He marries her and brings her home. Now the fun begins.
As they live and
work together their feeling might be changing to love. Once the trouble that
Olivia did not think much about catches up with her, she will have to make some
choices. First does she tell her husband and ask for help. Second does she
leave or stay. If she stays will all be ok? Once Tyler knows can he keep his family
safe? Does he finally tell Olivia he loves her? Will they make it out of this, or will they lose
all they have worked for?
