Carrera's Bride (Long Tall Texans / Silhouette Special Edition, No. 1645)

Diana Palmer's book is excellent. I love the way this author incorporates action, humor and romance. I loved it!

This is up there with my Palmer favorite's. I so disagree with those who felt otherwise. Palmer dared to be different with Marcus's character. It just completely sucked me in. Loved reading about some of the other familiar characters. Just love Mr. Smith. I hope there's a book about him.

First let me say I am a die-hard Diana Palmer Fan. Marcus Carrera is a big teddy bear pretending to be a bad guy. Delia Mason is a sweet young woman at a very low point of her life. Her mother just died, after a long illness, and she is spending time with her older sister to help get over the loss. What do they have in common? Both are quilters. She gets attacked in Carrera's casino by a man her brother-in-law fixed her up with. One thing lead to another and Marcus got Delia pregnant. It turns out that her older sister Barb is really her mom, and Barney her brother-in-law is really her dad. Marcus almost got shot, but Delia stopped the man, only to get knocked over the railing of the casino. Marcus also feel over the rail. Marcus lost his memory. He didn't know Delia, or that she had just lost her baby. Ms Palmer pulls this one out of the fire just in time. I was ready to throw it away.

I am not going to write much, just want to say I have read about 80 of Diana Palmer's books and this is in my top 10. I have reread it many times, I just reread it because Lawman just came out and I am rereading her lastest books before I read Lawman. I enjoyed the whole book. Also I enjoy that this book has many of the characters from her other books show up to help.
