Review
Determined to buy back his family's plantation after the war, Ex-Confederate officer Shane Delaney makes it known he will do whatever job necessary to earn the money he needs in a hurry. This brought Shane an interesting proposition from a crazy old mountain man who wanted him to discover his neighbors secret moonshine recipe. What Shane discovered was the beautiful daughter of the old man's rival, and a way of life he never would have thought he'd enjoy. Rina Taylor has found it difficult to trust men ever since her mother ran off with another man. But when Shane arrives in the mountains with an offer to buy the moonshine to sell on the riverboats, Rina soon finds she is offering him her trust, and before long, her love. From the Arkansas mountains to the charm of New Orleans, it takes several atttempts on Rina's life as well as the schemes of a jilted woman before Shane comes to realize that he no longer finds the road to happiness in the old family plantation, but rather in the arms of a beautiful, trusting mountain woman and her rustic surroundings.Ms. Adams get right to the heart of the matter with a story of love and trust between two people destined to find peace and happiness. The action never stops, yet Gambler's Lady doesn't rush you through a relationship, but rather let's you savor it as it grows and blossoms into something lasting and true. A warm, wonderful love story that reminds us all of the meaning of love. Ms. Adams offers just the right amount of action, humor, passion, tenderness and trust! What more could you ask for! Ms. Adams never rushes the reader in her telling of a wonderful love story that you'll savor like a quiet dinner for two!Claire Haynes -- Copyright © 1994-97 Literary Times, Inc.

"Country" does not equal "stupid",
This review is from: Gambler's Lady (Heartfire Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a great story, but I didn't like the horribly backwoods way the heroine spoke. She was supposed to be educated and well-read like her brother (who spoke correctly), but she was made out to be a stupid hick. Being "country" doesn't mean you're stupid.
