review 1: I either got this for free or purchased it for a very low price. It had been sitting around on my Kindle for a while and I finally got around to it when I was looking for a lighter read. Light it was. Entertaining it was not. It is incredibly repetitive. Most of the story is inside the character's head, hating each other through the first half of the book and worried about what to do once they fell in love the second half. "He hates me". "She hates me". Very little else happens. Except for the unrealistic travel and circumstances of the historical setting, which makes the already unbelievable story completely absurd. Taking liberties when writing is one thing, but completely disregarding history is another. Trains did not run from middle of no where, not yet a state Oklaho... morema to Georgia on daily basis, but in this drivel of a book, it runs multiple times. And that is only one glaring example. The real mistake here is reading this book. Even as a free book, it isn't worth it.
review 2: Maggie Listen and Everett Dulanis wake up to an angry man with a gun in his hand. Timing is everything and innocence is questioned. The only way to fix the mess is a shotgun wedding. Maggie and Everett don't agree, but they can't fight against an angry father holding a weapon. They'll just have to muddle through the ceremony and hope they can get an annulment tomorrow.Time Period: 1800'sLocation: Dodsworth, Indian Territory; Georgia, USA less
