The Farmer Takes His Wife

A Bitterpill, Texas 78020 Novel

De: Barbara Catlin

Narrado por: Jim Cooper

Married years ago...for 48 heavenly hours.

The couple is together again - for the first time since the annulment - when Grandma Margaret’s will bequeaths the farm to beloved Whitney “and her husband”. The house-sharing fiasco is a no-go for Whitney, who plans to transform the property into a charitable venture, but Drew yearns to get back to the earth. Each is determined to call the other’s bluff.

Yet Drew is no farmer in the dell, and Whitney’s noble cause seems on shaky ground, too. Beyond that, there’s this irritating, fiery chemistry between them....

If you yearn for uplifting, unpredictable, humorous romance...complete with characters who come alive...Barbara Catlin is your new go-to author! Fans are immediately drawn to the small-town charm of her authentic, pulse-pounding novels. To her sweet yet sensual contemporary stories that at the same time deliver cleaner-than-usual language and old-fashioned values galore.

So if you’ve enjoyed the past writings of “The Three Ms” - Debbie Macomber, Susan Mallery, Ava Miles - but are clamoring for something fresh and exciting, turn to award-winning author Barbara Catlin. Fall in love with the captivating heroes and heroines and with all the endearing characters of tiny Bitterpill, Texas 78020.

Author's note: Since I write small-town Texas Hill Country novels, all my stories are the polar opposite of, say, Beverly Hills, 90210. So I wanted to come up with a series title that gives you, my listeners, a pretty good clue of what you're getting yourself into - without even a peek at the book’s blurb. Thus, Bitterpill, Texas 78020.

A wild and woolly battle of the sexes is raging in the ruggedly beautiful, rolling Texas Hill Country. Everyday life in the seemingly sleepy little "cow town" of Bitterpill is a soap opera - country style!

Cute Love Story

If you love a great read with a second chance with first love, this is the book for you.

Farmer Takes His Wife

An Excellent well written book that grabs your attention . I couldn't wait to listen to more. Some love truly never dies.

"Come on. It'll be fun."

Whitney and Drew are still irresistible to each other twelve years after the annulment of their two-day teenage marriage. Of course, they won't admit it. And Heaven forbid they would be honest with each other, holding nothing back. Then they really mess up when they assume they know each other's minds and hearts. It will take a while to clear the tracks and get the True Love Express back on track.

This is a story you'll want to grab hold of and snuggle with. Drew is a dreamer, a techie who thinks he can learn to be a farmer by reading manuals. Whitney wants to switch from writing articles to running a camp for children of soldiers lost in combat. Both have goals and challenges. Whitney's godson, Kirby, and her friend Cassie's son, Jack, add a light touch and, at the same time, demonstrate the need for the camp. There's also an "Oh no!" moment that I took for a huge speed bump.

I voluntarily listened to an audio copy of this book and the views expressed are my honest opinions. I really enjoy Jim Cooper's narration, especially of children's and senior's voices. Each is distinct to the character. But every time I listened, I fell asleep in a different place and wasn't sure what I had missed. So, I bought the Kindle edition! Either way, you will enjoy it as I did,

The Farmer takes a Wife
