Rebelling when her father's will appoints her a guardian despite her success as head of the family plantation, Brianna Calhoun proposes marriage to sensual stranger Ryan Fleming, unaware that he is the very man she flees.
The African characters are written to match the time frame in a very uncle tom and mammy sort of way. Think gone with the wind, but written in 1994 so a lot less acceptable. I could not finish it after the fourth or fifth chapters when it was clear these characters were going to be sub characters for the plot and the dialogue for them was unreadable.
Fantastic Read

Barbara McIntosh has written a wondeful story with Mississippi Kiss. This is a must read for the historical romance reader, as well as anyone else. You won't be sorry. Give it a go!
Great example of mistaken identity

This is one of the first romance novels I read (about 6 years ago) and I still remember it well. It's one of the best I've read (outside of Johanna Lindsey). If you liked "Man of my Dreams," you'll love this book. The characters are well thought out and the plot is amazing. I highly recommend it!
