Loved it!, February 5, 2012
Book two picks up on the heals of book one. Ethan's older brother Rafe is now married to Julia. Audra does not want to be a burden now that Julia is married and is thinking about heading back east to her uncaring father. Rafe will have none of that and come up with the idea that Ethan should marry her so she can be the house keeper at the Kincaid ranch that Ethan is now taking over. Before either of them have a chance to think they are wed. Heading back to the Kincaid ranch with crazy Seth in tow how will these two settle into married life. Will they find love after all? Mary Connealy has done it again! She is one of my favorite authors and she does not disappoint in this new book. What I liked: Everything! I really liked both Ethan and Audra in the first book maybe even more then Rafe and Julia. I could not wait to read their story. I love how the characters interact in this book. The humor had be laughing through out. I also love how Ethan and Audra start to care for each other and realize how much they need each other. What I did not like: Really not much. The only part of the story I was not really into was the head bad guy. It really seemed like it did not fit with this story. I am guessing we will hear more from him in the 3rd book. I just did not feel his chapters added anything to the main plot of the story. Over all I loved this book. I love how this author intertwines romance, comedy and suspense(bad guys) and creates characters you fall in love with. I could not put it down and wanted to cry when it was over. I can't wait for book three which will finally tell Seth's story and I can't wait to meet Callie! August can't come soon enough. This is a must read for all historical fiction lovers!

Non-stop Romantic Comedy-Adventure!, February 3, 2012
This review is from: In Too Deep (The Kincaid Brides) (Paperback)
Mary Connealy does it again with heart-warming, non-stop romantic comedy adventure. As with all her books, In Too Deep is exciting, unpredictable, romantic and just plain fun. Ethan and Audra get their turn at being married, and they do it very well, thank you. Audra is sweet and meek, but she's trying to turn over a new leaf and grow herself a backbone. She wants to believe she is brave and fierce and able to take care of herself and her kids, and she isn't going to let any husband get the best of her again. But Ethan is protective and kind and ... pretty clueless. He was emotionally scarred by the terrible accident he and his brothers were in as kids in the dangerous cave near their home. But by the end of the book, Ethan has grown and realized some things, not least of which is that it's really nice having a pretty woman around, especially when she's his wife. There are lots of madcap adventures, bad guys and unexpected moments in this book, just like all Mary's books. And we get a glimpse of the third brother's story, loco Seth, who might not be quite as loco as we thought. Anyway, I'm looking forward to reading about Seth in the third book of the series, and revisiting the wonderful, expanding Kincaid family.

Definitely in Too Deep, February 22, 2012
Audra doesn't have many options when her good for nothing husband dies. He leaves her penniless so she cannot support herself and their two children. If she had money, perhaps she could return to her father. However, he sold her to her late husband in payment of a debt. She could stay with her stepdaughter, but Julia is a newlywed and Audra does not want to be a burden to her. That is why Audra agrees to marry Ethan even though he doesn't love her and even seems apathetic to the idea. Ethan's apathy is tested when villains come looking for Audra and the money her late husband stole. The problem is that Audra and Julia have no idea where the money is. This is no time for Audra to grow a back bone, but that is exactly what she attempts to do. Ethan doesn't want to fall in love with Audra since he let down his brother all those years ago. Fear of failing another he loves keeps him hiding behind his grin. While I did enjoy this book as I do all of Mary Connealy's books, I did grow weary of the cave. The cave itself is a villainous character that should be dispatched or at least minimized. I also feel that this series is somewhat disrespectful to men in the language the women use. However, I would still buy this book and I look forward to the third book in this series. "Book has been provided courtesy of Baker Publishing Group and Graf-Martin Communications, Inc.
