What a feel-good, happy, sunshiny read is Kit McBride Gets A Wife. Meet gentle giant Kit McBride (and his brothers – whew!), a meddling, curious, no-nonsense younger sister, an Irish maid, pesky trappers, a yappy dog and unpredictable weather and there you have it – gorgeous characters in an enthralling, page-turning fun-filled story, sassy and sweet in the wilds of Montana at Buck's Creek in 1886. Amy's love of the landscape is romance itself, beautifully written.’ -- <B>Darry Fraser, bestselling author of <I>The Milliner of Bendigo</I></B>
