Summary: I could not put it down
Comment: This was one of the best romance novels I have read in a long time. I could not put the book down. I kept saying I would read just one more chapter, but after that chapter I had to keep reading to see what would happen next.
I really liked that this story was set in the Canadian west. It was really nice to read a story which took place in the "old west" that didn't revolved around Indians and cattle drives.
I enjoyed that the male lead character wore two hats, of law officer and doctor. It created a multidimensional character that evolved independently of the main story.
This book is full of twists that I didn't expect. I rarely read books a second time, but this will be going on my shelf for a second viewing.

Summary: A wife shouldn't be a surprise package!
Comment: There was one thing that John Calloway didn't need - a mail order bride! That was exactly what he found waiting for him in his quarters one night, though, and he was completely shocked at the "joke" that had been played upon them both. Although he was fast approaching 40 and had always longed for a family of his own, he was dedicated to serving as a doctor in the Mounties regiment. He valiently tried to save the lives of his fellow soldiers and the locals, but he couldn't get over the fact that he had lost his best friend, Wesley, to a raid by a cattle-rustling gang. It'd take a special woman to put up with the demanding life he led!
Sarah O'Neill was a special woman...John just didn't know it quite yet. She had come west with an ulterior motive, but John didn't know THAT, either. Once John told her of the cruel joke that had sent her out west, Sarah was determined to stay in town and make it on her own! As John and Sarah spent time around one another, though, neither could deny the attraction that was building between them - but was attraction enough when neither could trust the other?
This book was really different. Not only was it set in the Canadian West (something I know very little about, and was such a refreshing break from the traditional American West), but the heroine wasn't a virgin (a "non-traditional" heroine - I love it!), and the relationship between the two wasn't perfect right away. This book was, therefore, was quite different - and that made it that more interesting. Even better, there was real character growth in the book - something that I always enjoy to read about. Unfortunately, I usually have a knack at figuring out the ending, and I did this time, too. Nevertheless, this was a good book, and a keeper in my opinion.

Summary: Storyline from Publisher
Comment: A wife shouldn't be a surprise package. But Mountie surgeon John Calloway suddenly found himself saddled with a special delivery he hadn't signed for - mail-order bride Sarah O'Neill. He had no room in his life for marriage! But why then did he feel compelled to protect Sarah from all things dark and dangerous - including her own unspoken past?
If John Calloway didn't want her, fine! Sarah would survive - and thrive! - without him! The rugged, committed doctor dismissed his proposal as an elaborate prank. So how come the two of them kept finding themselves in each other's arms? And what would Sarah be forced to deny in order to stay there?
