The Heavenly Surrender

This is one of my favorite books. I loved reading about the budding romance of the characters. The author has a talent to bring you into the book and you can feel what the characters are feeling. There was humor and adventure sprinkled throughout the book. I couldn't put the book down.

This is the first book I read of Marcia's. Such a sweet love story - clean, but oh, so romantic! I was hooked! I have since bought every one of Marcia's books. This tells a lot, because I am the kind of person who usually just checks out books at the library. They have to be really good for me to buy them. My daughter is a reluctant reader, but I felt confident suggesting Marcia's books to her. She loved them and has read each several times. She can't find anyone who compares.

This is one of the best books I have ever read. It had an interesting plot as well as a wonderful, tasteful romance. I'm looking forward to reading more books by this author.

In this story, Geneva Bankmans runs away from home in order to escape an arranged marriage. Instead, she accepts the proposal of a grumpy Irishman named Brevan McLean as a mail-order bride, to be his wife only in name and to help him with his farm. There are plenty of funny mishaps and angry outbursts that all eventually lead them to fall in love, but of course not without mysterious intruders and the past that continues to haunt them both. I would give any of Marcia's books no less than FIVE STARS, because that's what they all deserve. It is absolutely amazing, the writing skill of this woman. She can weave a spell with her magical words and transport you to the exact time and place of the story. It is beautiful historical romance, but without smutty trash or preachy Christian ties. It's filled with sweet kisses, healing kisses, promising kisses. If you're looking for an amazing romance story that will keep you riveted from beginning to end, this is it! Page one will pull you in and you won't be able to put it down till the early hours of the morning. You won't regret buying this book. If you feel the offers are too expensive or the books are unavaliable, try Googling her name or look for her publishing company, Distractions, Inc. All her books are avaliable for under $20 at her website and are worth every penny. Spread the word, because Marcia is entirely too underrated and overlooked.

I read two to three books a week at work and nothing compares to The Heavenly Surrender. It is a wonderful romance with the best kisses you will ever read without being dirty. It is also very funny. I had a hard time answering the phone at work because I was laughing. It is a story about a girl named Geiniva who leaves home to marry a man she has never met before. She needs a place to live, and something to keep her working. He needs someone to help him run the farm. It is a marriage in name only. Both of them have secrets that eventually come out. It is well written and never dull.
