The Jones Gang

WHAT EVERY WOMAN WANTS…

…is what Evie Jones has wanted all her life—husband, children, the white picket fence. But these ordinary wishes have eluded her miserably…because Evie is far from ordinary….

…IS ONE GOOD MAN

Erik Riggins, with his ready-made family, could be the answer to Evie's prayers. In him, she's learned to believe in moonlight and magic—and the power of motherhood! He's got her hoping for a miracle…but can he deliver?

THE JONES GANG LIVES ON!

North Magdalene's Jones brothers are firecrackers all. But they can't hold a candle…to the females of the family!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Man, the Moon and the Marriage vow, June 7, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Man, The Moon And The Marriage Vow (The Jones Gang) (Silhouette Special Edition, No 1010) (Paperback)

Evie Jones is one of The Jones Gang! She is Oggie's niece. She moved to North Magdelene last year and loves it. She meets Erik Riggins and falls in love and marries him. Erik is a widower with 3 children that Evie makes a home with. Evie has been exploded by her father, Gideon, because of her special gift -- telepathy. She is afraid to tell Erik of this gift and this leads to trouble. I don't know if Ms Rimmer has any other books that deal with telepathy but it was good and I enjoyed it.

This review is from: The Man, the Moon and the Marriage Vow (Kindle Edition)

Rimmer is one of my favorites, but this is an earlier book and not as good as usual.

It starts out OK, with an introduction to the female lead and her special powers that captures your interest. The hero remains in the background for awhile, and then initially, he is just an angry and prideful guy that couldn't hold my attention. But the real issues started with their romance. I found both of these people a little tiresome, and coupling them just doubled that. I think the villain and his actions were the most engrossing part of the story, which is always a bad sign in a romance.

I am thankful that all of Rimmer's back list is becoming available on Kindle, and I will certainly keep buying this author.
