Title: Love on the Ranch

Series: McKinnie Mail Order Brides
Author: Ciara Knight
Genre: Sweet Historical Romance

Elizabeth McKinnie will no longer accept men ruling her life. After the Civil War devastated her family home and having no way to survive, Elizabeth accepts one of the mail-order bride proposals presented to her and her sisters. She chooses a man who promises to treat her as an equal. Her sister convinces her to switch suitors, proclaiming the weather in Texas would be more suitable for Elizabeth’s weak lungs. Agreeing, she heads west to meet the mysterious cattle baron she knows little about.
 
Jeb Clayton grew up as a poor son of a drunkard. He has worked his entire life to ensure he never starves again. He is a man who understands cows better than women, especially after watching the fairer sex manipulate his father into an early grave. Still, he begrudgingly agrees to marry a sturdy bride to produce sons who can help build his ranch into an empire. Yet, what he sees getting off the stagecoach is a whisper-of-a-woman with undesirable birthing hips.
 
When Elizabeth’s and Jeb’s futures are threatened will they join forces, or will their bitterness be their end?

Review : Silver Edge by Ciara Knight left me feeling kind of divided. It started as such a great read, introducing us to such an intriguing female character and a guy that really understood her.

 

I loved the deep feelings the author managed to evoke with me for “Einstein”. I really felt like I could understand her struggles. Then there was Drake a kind of unusual guy with what seemed like several faces – or at least a Now & Then face.

 

This book was honestly heading for a straight 5 star review … and than the last 10% happened.

 

It really felt like “happened” – because the story was floating as it should and naturally the reader knows that there has to come a kind of crescendo with a turn of events as most books have but it honestly felt like this story suffered an accident rather than experiencing a climax.

 

The well developed character of Drake lost himself in ramblings that made no sense whatsoever… And even with all the given issues I would have expected more of a person that is called “Einstein” – not to spoiler anything majorly I am just saying 3 words :

Contact ?

Grandmother !

Coffeeshop ! followed by my thought : “ if they really had wanted it….. ”

 

There were just too many incidents happening at one time that together with silly excuses ruined the ending for me.

 

Still it is a good story (sounds strange I know) it is just that when an author manages to engage me AND my feelings (that is what is needed for a 5 star review-> feelings) the result will also be an emotional one if something is not done as the story would have deserved it.

 

This is just my very personal opinion and I think I will pick up another book by this author to see how she handles the crescendo in other cases …
