“I thoroughly enjoyed this book—a fun mix of romance and adventure! I couldn’t put it down to get anything done because I just had to find out what came next! Can’t wait for the 3rd one!” Diane L.
His chivalry was strangling her.
He thought he was helping her—and in truth, he was. She was in desperate straits. But as honorable as he was, he was also breaking her heart.
Her attraction was drowning him.
When World Champion rodeo cowboy Rossen Rockland and his friends rescue a young runaway who has been abused by her foster father and take her home to his parents’ ranch, he expects her to turn out to be a pain in the neck. And sometimes she is.
It doesn’t take him long to figure out that she has way more than her allotment of troubles—and far more than her share of gifts. Lovely, talented, and ravingly brilliant, Kit Star is too young, unbelievably humble, and oh, so loveable. Knowing that she needs his protection and time to grow into her potential, Rossen also figures out that what she really is, is a pain in the heart.

Descrizione prodotto

L'autore

Jaclyn M. Hawkes grew up with 6 sisters, 4 brothers and any number of pets. (It was never boring!) She got a bachelor’s degree, had a career and traveled extensively before settling down to her life’s work of being the mother of four magnificent and sometimes challenging children. She loves shellfish, the out of doors, the youth and hearing her children laugh. She and her handsome and patient husband, their family, and their sometimes very large pets, now live in a mountain valley in northern Utah, where it smells like heaven and kids still move sprinkler pipe.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was a clean romance, but not one where the H and h meet, fall in love with no problems, then get engaged within 10 days. I really enjoy JH's writing. There are things to make you smile, sigh, laugh, and just feel good.

This starts with Kit running away from her foster home and from her abusive foster father who wants her to abort the baby she is carrying - his baby. Rossen and Slade see her in Las Veges beng accosted by a gang and go to help. She needs medical attention but the ER doctor will not do anything without her or a guardians permission which they can't get because she is unconsious and ran away from her guardian. So the guys take her to their doctor in Wyoming which is a 7 hour drive. He fixes her up and she stays with Rossen's family at their ranch.

Rossen and Kit fall in love but don't let each other know who they feel. Rossen thinks Kit is too young to settle down and should go away to college so she can do all the things a typical young girl should do.

The only thing I didn't like about this story was the hero and heroine characters. They were just too perfect and unbelievable. Even though Kit had a terrible childhood in foster care now she is a talented sculpturer and musician. Making so much money so quickly from her scultures was even too far fetched for a novel. And then she was so talented with her guitar playing and singing that a famous rocker had her play in a concert with him. They story started getting to sound like a fairy tale. Finally, I found it completely unbelievable that so many men fell in love with Kit and wanted to marry her even though there was no sex. Nobody is that perfect.

Rossen is also too perfect, too. He is gorgeous, always puts others before himself, a rodeo champion and a petroleum engineer. Oh, and he just takes care of a fatherless baby like it's nothing at all.

This had a lot of religious content buy not as much as Peace River, which was way too much. I almost didn't read this book because of the extreme LDS content in book 1 of this series, but I liked this one much more and am glad I did read it.

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes christian romance.

This book remembered me of Futurama...
Bender: "I've been perusing your fortified wine list, and I've selected the '71 Hobo's Delight, the '57 Chateau Portey, and the '66 Thunder(??)."
Waiter: "Exquisite choices, sir."
Bender: "And...mix them all together in a big jug."

When I bought this book (it was free some time in Mai 2013) the newer comments here haven't been written yet, so I had only a 4.5 star reference from amazon.com...
The writing wasn't too bad, in fact it was pretty decent and solid. The first half of the story was okay, were it not for the fact that I felt being clubbed over the head with the Book of Mormon every other page (or a whole lot of these mormon reference books), but I could've overlooked that fact. Not High-Class Wine, but a decent one for a nice summernight. Story should've ended here with some happy ending and I would've been content.
But, no. The Heroine had to go to college although having a 4month old daughter, leaving her behind (I have three kids of my own, I NEVER would have done that), earning an unbelievable amount of credits in one single semester while only having three different classes - what the...?, meeting a rockstar (who falls in love with her and wants to marry her), getting famous as part of his band, converting the famous rockstar to her mormon beliefs, her sort-of-sister has to meet a equally famous country star, who - guess what? - never mind...
and of course she's totally PERFECT in EVERYTHING she does.
So basically, the second half of the story totally ruined it.

Also I am a little shocked by the image of women this author sells. "Go to college, get well educated, maybe even have a (successful) carreer of your own and then throw it all away by getting married and become a stay-at-home-mom (for at least a handful of kids), because that's what really counts. And most important: be perfect!". huh. Is that how Mormons see their women? Oh my... can't help myself but see Proverbs 31 (yes that's the referenced bible verse) see quite differently - it shows the image of a strong and independent woman with her own business. but maybe the author only saw the part about "getting up before dawn and making food for the household"...

I loved this book and the characters. After reading a few other reviews about it being unrealistic and more of a fairy tale, I have to put my plug in that most romantic fiction is...yet that's why I LOVE it. Yes, Kit Star is a little too perfect, yet I found that I loved that about her. After the horrible life she had lived before the story starts, I felt she deserved to have a few breaks (and it was fun to see her hit everything on her bucket list within a year. You go girl! Gives me something to shoot for.) I loved Kit's character--how vulnerable she was, yet how her weaknesses became her strengths. I really loved Rossen Rockland's character. He was almost too good, yet that's what made him perfect for Kit. He wanted to give her time to grow up and I liked that about him--although it drove me crazy in the book (tension--a good thing in fiction). I didn't feel the things taught were done in a preachy way. Kit is searching for answers, and she gets them by asking her rescuers. I felt it was done in a way that didn't distract from the story (and believe me, I've read many others that have distracted me--even if I agree wholeheartedly with what was being taught).

So I would rate this high because it was kind of like the old Calgon commercial...and 'took me away' from the stresses of life. I love escaping with a good book, and Above Rubies did that for me.
