A Noble Groom by Jody Hedlund | Kindle Fire Giveaway and Facebook Party! {5/8}


















About A Noble Groom:

Michigan, 1880
Annalisa Werner's hope for a fairy tale love is over. Her husband failed her in every way and now his death has left her with few options to save the family farm. She needs a plentiful harvest. That, and a husband to help bring it in. Someone strong, dependable. That'll be enough. A marriage for love...that's something she's given up on.
So her father sends a letter to his brother in the Old Country, asking him to find Annalisa a groom.
Then a man appears: Carl Richards, from their home country of Germany and a former schoolteacher---or so he says. He's looking for work and will serve on the farm until her husband arrives.
With time running out, she accepts his help, but there's more to this man than he's admitting. He's also gentle, kind, charming---unlike any man she's ever known. But even as Carl is shining light into the darkness of her heart, she knows her true groom may arrive any day.

My Thoughts:

I don't ever remember being tongue tied in writing a review, but I am. Jody has created memorable characters in her new book Noble Groom that you will not forget.
Annalisa is a young widow who has a farm in Michigan and she needs help to work the farm, male help. Carl comes to Michigan from Germany, and he needs work. He claims to be a schoolteacher. He begins to work on the farm to help Annalisa.

Annalisa has never experienced a man quite like Carl. He is kind, gentle, and charming. She begins to blossom as they work the farm together. She knows the groom her father sent for from Germany should be arriving any day, but she is growing very fond of Carl.

And then it happens, they share a very intimate kiss in the rain. All I can say is WOW! I was breathless.

The redemption story line is not overwhelming but very present. A definite home run Jody! This will be definitely a keeper.
