To Claim Her Heart by Jodie Wolfe
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Fans of Mary Connealy will enjoy this romantic romp set during the Oklahoma Land Rush. Elsie Smith is dead-set on getting the land her Pa had spied out for them, even though he’s no longer by her side. Benjamin David is looking for his “Promised Land.” Neither ever imagines that they’ll stake claim to the same acres. Neither ever imagines that they’ll be attracted to the other. As different as toast from toads, their adventures – and misadventures – will warm the hearts of readers from teenage to, ahem, let’s call it post-mature.
