This review is from: Daughter of Oklahoma: Hometown U.S.A. (Harlequin Superromance No. 1028) (Paperback)
Gossip and speculation keep the rumor mills churning in Medicine Creek, Oklahoma. Preacher Mike Kirkpatrick finds himself unintentionally and unofficially engaged by serving a breakfast side by side with Gloria. Everyone in town knows his son Zach had gotten in trouble by skipping school and going to the Cagle ranch before Mike did. So when the preacher/real estate agent begins spending time with attorney Annie Fisher, everyone knows it. It only took three words, when Annie whispered "Those poor kids," for this father of five to give his heart to Annie.Sixteen years have yet to bring healing to Annie. Growing up in Medicine Creek with a cold stepmother had made childhood painful. Now only three stories of rummage remain to remind Annie of the bitter woman who had raised her, and virtually erased the memory of her Chickasaw birth mother. As Annie begins to ready the house and property for sale, however, she begins to uncover the well guarded secrets to her past that tie her the town of Medicine Creek. Suddenly her engagement to a senator and her successful career in Washington, D.C. seem irrelevant and unfulfilling. Author Darlene Graham creates a warm romance in DAUGHTER OF OKLAHOMA. This memorable father of five finds himself at cross purposes when the town pushes him in one direction and his heart leads in another. Gloria's meddling lends the novel a fun subplot and mild tension as she struggles to arrange events to lead to the altar. Annie's painful childhood lends sympathy and depth, especially as she uncovers information about her birth mother. Unfortunately, the many subplots leave readers feeling pulled in too many directions at once. Recommended.
