Synopsis from goodreads.com
Molly Hatfield comes to
Arizona Territory seeking stability and security. But living in Cactus
Patch provides her with more than she ever dreamed of.
There is
nothing Molly wouldn’t do for her teenaged brother, Donny. Blaming
herself for the accident that left him wheel-chair bound, Molly has
dedicated her life to his care. But in 1896, gainful employment for a
woman is hard to come by. So when Molly learns that an eccentric rancher
in Cactus Patch, Arizona, is looking for an heiress--someone to take
over management of the ranch in exchange for future ownership--she jumps
at the chance to provide a real home for her brother.
If she
proves to have a knack for ranching and agrees to remain single for
life, the ranch can be hers. Neither stipulation worries Molly. She’s
resourceful and hardworking. And she gave up dreams of marriage long ago
when she dedicated her life to her brother’s well-being.
However,
Molly didn’t bank on meeting Dr. Caleb Fairbanks, the town’s handsome
and charismatic young doctor. Caleb has a way with Molly that makes her
nervous. But it’s how he is with her brother that really alarms her.
Caleb sees past the wheelchair and genuinely likes Donny, but Molly
fears he’s putting unrealistic ideas into her brother’s head. Falling in
love with Caleb would threaten everything she’s worked for, even her
brother’s future happiness.
But it could be the very reason God brought her to Last Chance Ranch.
Forest Born by
Shannon Hale is the fourth book in the
Books of Bayern series. This is a series that I would recommend reading in order- while it may not be necessary, I think the books would be enjoyed more.
Synopsis from goodreads.com
Rin is sure that
something is wrong with her...something really bad. Something that is
keeping her from feeling at home in the Forest homestead where she's
lived all her life. Something that is keeping her from trusting herself
with anyone at all. When her brother Razo returns from the city for a
visit, she accompanies him to the palace, hoping that she can find peace
away from home. But war has come to Bayern again, and Rin is compelled
to join the queen and her closest allies--magical girls Rin thinks of as
the Fire Sisters--as they venture into the Forest toward Kel, the land
where someone seems to want them all dead. Many beloved Bayern
characters reappear in this story, but it is Rin's own journey of
discovering how to balance the good and the bad in herself that drives
this compelling adventure.
Princess of Glass is the second book in a
series of YA fairy tale retellings by
Jessica Day George. It's an adaptation of Cinderella which was enjoyable- I rated it three stars (although I liked the first book
Princess of the Midnight Ball better and gave that one 4 stars). I haven't read the third book in the series which is based on Little Red Riding Hood.
Synopsis from goodreads.com
Hoping to escape the
troubles in her kingdom, Princess Poppy reluctantly agrees to take part
in a royal exchange program, whereby young princes and princesses travel
to each other's countries in the name of better political
alliances--and potential marriages. It's got the makings of a fairy
tale--until a hapless servant named Eleanor is tricked by a vengeful
fairy godmother into competing with Poppy for the eligible prince.
Ballgowns, cinders, and enchanted glass slippers fly in this romantic
and action-packed happily-ever-after quest from an author with a flair
for embroidering tales in her own delightful way.
