This
novel is funny. Agatha is a kick. She is a good hearted woman but
every time she gets in a situation, disaster happens.
Agatha
is a feature reporter for the New York Tribune. Her investigations
have created enemies and her life was threatened. She's sent out west
for own safety. She stumbles upon Zayne, a one time almost fiancee
who is now gold mining. He is in bad shape and Agatha tries to help
him but in the process blows up his mine. She convinces him to go
back to New York with her. When they return, it becomes all too clear
that someone wants her dead.
The
relationship between Agatha and Zayne is great. He has been
disappointed in love and wants nothing to do with Agatha. Agatha was
hurt by Zayne himself but is willing to help him get back to his
family. Both of them fight their increasing love for each other and
the things they do to try to hide it! Zayne does finally come to realize he wants to marry someone intelligent, a match of wits.
Add
to the mix a pet pig and two body guards and you have fun. There were
laugh out loud times in this book. There were times when the humor
seemed forced but overall, a well done Christian comedic romance.
This
is not the first in the series. I have not read the others yet I
thoroughly enjoyed this novel, so it can easily be read on its own.
