A salute to those who are good at small talk. . . and those
who are masters at avoiding it.
About the Book: Annalee Gillespie has had her world shaken. Her father
has died, leaving her as sole owner of the Circle G. but when the will is read,
she’s given the shock of her life: she must make the trek up the Chisolm Trail
with her foreman, the most irritating man in creation, and complete the tasks
given to her—or control of the Circle G will fall into the hands of another.
Ewan
Judge, while capable, smart and frustratingly handsome, has needled and teased
Annalee through the years but somehow, she must learn to get along with him, annoyingly,
the best cowboy in Texas. So, she accepts the challenge and finds herself in
the midst of more than one enemy.
Our Review: From the first page of this short, intense western
romance author O’Neal shows her gift for describing emotion in succinct detail,
keeping the pages turning. Annalee’s profound grief is immediately compounded
by shock, followed by—for a few short moments—helplessness and dismay and maybe
a touch of fear. Then she spies Ewan at the edge of the cemetery and steel straightens
her spine. A phrase, common to modern times, fits quite well: Bring It On.
Miss Green Eyes portends a terrific Wildflowers of Texas series and
we cannot wait for the next edition.
Based on a scale
of 1-5, Miss Green Eyes merits a 7.
