More Than Kisses

Colleen Molly O'Toole has been left a widow. The man who left her that way, was only defending himself against her wild shooting drunk husband, Paddy O'Toole. William Allard, an Englishman was only passing through this Alabama town on his way to catch a ship home to his beloved England. But his life was changed forever by the guilt that crippled him over leaving Colleen a widow and destitute. Offering to stay and help her with her farm until she can make it own her own, a relationship develops that changes both their lives forever. I have read hundreds of Historical Romances and this book will now sit on my "top ten" shelf. A beautiful love story, and not your everyday historical romance. Very well developed characters. So often in romance novels, the characters lie and hide their true feelings, and pretend they don't care. I loved the fact that in this story Colleen and William were very honest with their feelings and their dreams. I will cherish this book forever.
