Dilly Fitzgerald is not your typical heroine. A bit overweight with frequently limp hair, she can outrope, outride and outcuss even a seasoned ranch hand. When she learns that her father bought her a husband will bull semen, Dilly walks out of the church minutes before the ceremony. She perceives the exchange as a betrayal; her ex-fiancé and father consider it a business deal. She can't believe her fiancé was going to marry her for bull semen and grazing rights. And her beautiful Christmas wedding had been arranged around tax breaks. Never again will she settle for no less than breathless grand passion that makes her toes curl.

Mick MacDougal takes over driving his brother's limousine as a favor when his sister-in-law goes into labor early. Things are slow at his ranch anyway, so he welcomes the diversion. The sacrifice of three hard years of work and his marriage have left the ranch in better shape, but they aren't in the black yet. All he'll need to do for his brother is pick the happy couple up at the church and drive them to their honeymoon destination. Sounds easy, until the big, blond, bodacious bride exits the church alone and offers to pay him extra if he'll take her to the planned honeymoon retreat and drive her all week. She doesn't know her father's offered to pay in bull semen for Mick to look after his little girl until she comes home.

Mick puts responsibility to his ranch and his help above his personal life. Securing bull semen will ensure stock that will keep his people employed and paid. But when Dilly discovers her sexy driver is no better than her ex-fiancé, she's going to be (angry). Mick quickly finds himself falling for this story woman full of beauty and fury. As for Dilly, she figures its pretty bad when one kiss with limo driver in a burger joint eclipses every bit of her previous sexual experience.

Author Jennifer LaBrecque creates a delightfully capricious romance in JINGLE BELL BRIDE? This unusual cast of characters, including a convention of nuns, a best friend who's enrolled in an internet assertiveness support group, and an ex-fiancé accompanied by a mariachi band add captivating spice to this outrageous story. Underlying the humor is an irrational, wanton attraction between hero and heroine that will make the reader's toes curl. JINGLE BELL BRIDE? comes highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Rosey Little Christmas...filled with lots of laughter!, November 15, 2001

A Rosey Little Christmas's heroine, Rosey O'Leary, has a thing for...butts. Nicely shaped, perfectly contoured male posteriors. And it just so happens Daniel Sullivan's is one of the finest she's ever seen. It also happens that he's the man trying to take her family home away from her and build a new development. One small car crash, and it's Rosey and Dan's day in court. Hopefully the verdict will be everlasting love!

Bonnie Tucker once again delights readers with her offbeat, hysterical writing style. This is just the Christmas treat you should indulge in!

Jennifer LaBrecque's Jingle Bell Bride had me laughing outloud when I read it on the plane. This is the first romance novel I've read in years but as long as Ms. LaBrecque is writng, it won't be the last. Dilly is a heroine to whom we can all relate. The entire novel moved quickly and although the premise was a little wacky, the human interactions rang very true. I hope the next book will be longer!
