THE BACHELOR TAX is a fun, quick and easy story that will warm your heart! Be sure to catch continuation of the Tanner family with TANNER STAKES HIS CLAIM and WISH UPON A STAR in the book ONE CHRISTMAS WISH.

A real treat

This review is from: Bachelor Tax (Harlequin Historical) (Paperback)

I'm not a huge fan of Carolyn Davidson. With a few exceptions, I find her books corny and sexist. The hero here is still pretty macho, but not unlikeable, and the parson's daughter shows some spunk now and then. It's an interesting premise to a marriage of convenience. To avoid the "Bachelor Tax", rancher Gabe Tanner has to at least propose marriage. He chooses Rosemary Gibson, the "starchy, uptight" preacher's daughter, just sure she'll turn him down. Due to the recent death of her father, and the arrival of the replacement preacher - and his large family - she is now homeless, and desperate. So she decides to accept his offer, but changes her position to that of "cook" instead. A growing mutual passion and two abused children added to the mix make marriage seem like a good idea. Read it if you want to find out how it all works out!

This was a very humurous idea for the story. Rosemary and Gabe are the H/H of the story. Gabe trys to get out of paying the Bachelor Tax, by proposing to someone, namely Rosemary. He's sure she will turn him down flat. Only it backfires on him and he ends up with the most unusal ready-made family this side of the Mississippi.
