Narration Conducive To Books What Price Paradise
All his life Tate McCullom has been taught to be responsible, and he is the very model of what a respectable man should be. Until the night he gets drunk and sleeps with a woman he barely knows. Now, six weeks later, she's pregnant, alone, and broke. Once again, Tate must take responsibility for his actions, and makes plans to marry his child's mother. There's only one problem...he has to tell his fiancée. Abby Grayson hasn't had an easy life. As the daughter of the town whore, people either avoid her or think she's like her mother. For Abby, it's a struggle just to fill her belly and keep a roof over her head. Loneliness and a secret yearning for this man she thought she'd never have led her to spend the night with Tate. But the last thing she needs is a baby when she can barely take care of herself. Desperate, but too proud to ask for help, she finally agrees to accept a job from Tate - the job of being his wife. Now she has almost everything she's ever dreamed of. Unfortunately, only one thing will gain her Tate's love - his realization that the night he spent with her was no drunken accident. It was a last-ditch attempt to win the woman he really wanted.Rating About Books What Price Paradise

4 STARSThe best things come when you least expect them. You start reading a book almost sure you won't like it: the cover is terrible; the blurb sounds ominous; the reviews are mixed. On top of that, theres cheating and unrequited love...And then you end up loving it. Surprises like this are why I love reading. You never know what youre gonna get. I wanted to read another hallelujah romance (a.k.a. slow burn) with unrequited love. Ever since reading KAs Complicated, Ive been restless. I needed***FIVE STARS***(Thank you so much my wonderful friend Anna, for turning me onto this story. It was fantastic and I truly loved every second of it!)This story is absolutely adorable. This story had so many elements in it that made it the perfect read for me. (view spoiler)[ Sweet girl from the wrong side of the tracks, finds herself alone and pregnant. Father of the baby is in love with somebody else, but marries sweet girl out of sense of responsibility. Mother of the baby is extremely poor and
This cover is really not the one, but don't do a me and judge by this. It was absolutely amazing.
Reread 6/20/2019...I don't know why but Tate didn't live up to my first read expectations....after reading the book without blinders. I felt frustrated with him and his indecisive nature. He is so clueless and I guess with age and maturity I realize that is not an endearing quality in anyone especially a hero. I still loved Abby and the secondary characters and the story...but Tate got on my nerves. Review coming soon...I am rereading some of my favorite scences. Incapable of putting the book
3.5 Stars!Good story, loved the premise: Abby is a part-time waitress and nearly homeless, with hardly enough food to feed herself, since she can't find decent work without having a high school diploma. She is also the daughter of the "town whore" who died a few years ago; and even though Abby is still a virgin, most of the people in this small Texas town unfortunately assume she is just like her mother. Depressing, I know.Tate is a successful and respected rancher who, after the death of his
I revisited this one yesterday and while I still enjoyed it a lot, and the H grovels well, I still wish there had been more resolution to the Dianne thing. So I lowered it to 4 stars.Tate and Dianne have been on again off again lovers since high school. Going so far as to even get engaged. Dianne is a real piece of work! Hated her manipulative whiney guts through the whole book. During one of their separations, Tate has a ONS with Abby who has secretly crushed on him for years. Of course they
4.5 stars I love you, he whispered. Youll have the words every day for the rest of our lives. After finishing The Sweet Gum Tree, I fell so in love with Ms. Allred's writing that I just had to try another of her books and LOVED this one too!It has refreshingly smart and functional characters (both individually and as a couple), funny witty dialogue, a steamy romance, some misty eyed moments (but no crying), some moments that made me laugh out loud, a writing style that just sucks you right
