review 1: Maya Brand wanted to be respectable in her hometown in Oklahoma, but that just wasn't gonna happen since her mom owned the local bar and all her sisters were crazy in their own way. She was a good girl and even saved herself for her future husband. Then a handsome stranger named Caleb walks into the bar one night, and her plans blow away with the Oklahoma winds. Now the town has more gossip to pass around, and Maya is the main attraction. How could she end up with a future just like her mom's?? This is a really fun read for Christmas time.
review 2: A cute story, clearly the set up for a series about the Brand girls.Maya has spent her entire life trying to prove she is a good girl, obeying the rules, doing the right thing. But her eccentric family don't mak
... moree things easy.On the eve of her 29th birthday a drifter comes into her family's saloon. Despite his obvious unsuitability she feels an attraction to Caleb and they spend the night together.Caleb isn't who he seems. He is a third generation politician and wealthy businessman, faced with the way his entire life has been arranged and planned by his family and his advisers he escapes. Dressed in old clothes and driving the gardener's truck he enters a saloon and is enchanted by the woman serving his beer.Their connection was real and both of their feelings were engaged, but Caleb received a call that night to tell him his father had had a heart attack. He left town and Maya without a backwards glance, although over the next few months his thoughts turn to that night several times.As always happens with these things Maya has become pregnant from that one night - although given her lack of experience it is unsurprising that she forgot birth control. Maya has no intention of contacting Caleb, he left without a word - and then she found out he gave her a false name. But someone in her family wants Caleb to take responsibility and when they see his picture in the newspaper she sends a photo of a visibly pregnant Maya to his office.Will their feelings and impending child be enough or will the differences between them pull them apart?This was a very sweet story about what seems to be the boring sister. less
