Don Tillman, professor of genetics, has never been on a second date. So when an acquaintance informs him that he would make a "wonderful" husband, his first reaction is shock. Yet he must concede to the statistical probability that there is someone for everyone, and Don sets out to find the perfect partner. She will be punctual and logical - most definitely not a barmaid, a smoker, a drinker, or a late-arriver. Yet Rosie Jarman is all these things. She is also beguiling, fiery, intelligent - and on a quest of her own....

Wait, what?
Revisado: 01-04-21
While this book had a lot of comedic value, it ended up being too quaint of a romantic story for me to feel satisfied in the end. Why end it that way?! I mean, the end end.

Born and raised a cowboy, Vietnam vet Joshua Jacobs looks out across the West Texas plain. All the land stretching to the uncluttered western horizon is his. From just a patch of land, he built an empire, one he runs by his own rules. Yet, Joshua learned a hard lesson...that his family couldn’t be run the same way. Joshua deeply regretted not being on speaking terms with his only son when James died serving his country. James’s wife Katy never forgave Joshua for trying to run their lives. Heartache upon heartache, Joshua’s beloved wife Sarah passed away not long after.

Nothing like family
Revisado: 11-20-19
I have to admit that I'm a bit biased about this story because my brother and nephew are both named Josh. I saw a lot of my brother in Joshua, the grandfather in this story who will stop at nothing to protect his family. I loved the loyalty he inspired in those surrounding him; their presence showed that he was a good man. This story is very timely and invokes some concepts that many fear may come to pass if nothing changes with our border policies (although the ability to corrupt law enforcement renders any law meaningless anyway). Thought provoking and enjoyable.

Narrator made it worthwhile
Revisado: 03-11-19
I think i would not have enjoyed this book as much without the narration making it so clear when i was listening to different characters/times. Overall the story was boring for most of the book, and i would have given up if i hadn’t known i had just 3 hours left.

I can’t relate
Revisado: 03-06-19
I started listening to this book and got into the second chapter and finally gave up. I just could not find a place to grab on with this story. I couldn’t relate to the plot line or any of the characters.
