Customer Reviews

Orchard Valley Brides: Norah/Lone Star Lovin'

As always Debbie Macomber has done it. She can weave a tale around a known place and yet make it totally believable. You can put yourself right in the area and know exactly where you are. She is the BEST!

Loved this story

I loved this story it followed up the book Orchard Valley grooms. Now there should be a follow up to the brides book with Orchard Valley kids or something that lets us know how the families are doing.

Cute Reprint

There are 2 very cute novels in Orchard Valley Brides. There is a HUGE but, though. These are reprints of two previously published books in 1992 and 1993. No where on the cover, back or introduction does it say these are reprints. I absolutely hate this practice of publishers or authors that do this. This book is less expensive than buying these books separately, but please do not mislead your readers into thinking they are getting a new story! The two books are `Norah' and `Lone Star Lovein''. They both intertwine a bit. In `Norah' a rich and handsome, of course, Texan crashes in his airplane in Oregon. There is an attraction between him and Norah, a nurse at the hospital. Of course, they have a split and get back together for a happy ending - no surprise in these stories. In `Lone Star Loven' Norah's friend Sherry comes to Texas to be a nurse and mid wife in a small town. She meets a handsome, well off rancher, and his daughter immediately sets out on a campaign to bring the two of them together. They kiss and fall immediately in love, then have problems and a happy ending. Debbie Malcomber writes sweet, cute, interesting stories, she includes a letter in the beginning to welcome you to her writing and tells about herself in relation to the stories. It's great personalization, but I would appreciate her admitting that these are not new books. They are an enjoyable read and draw you in with a smile - as long as you haven't been misled into thinking these are new novels, that is.

Debbie rules

Even though this was a republication, I really enjoyed this book and its companion Orchard Valley Grooms. Both are typical Macomber reads.
