A good romance that is true to life

In Glory, Jeremiah Blake feels like a throwback to the days when a rancher found that his true love was his land. Jem, as his friends call him, works hard at making a success of his Diamond 8 ranch. He has no plans to ever marry even though his brother is happily married.Jem's feelings on matrimony abruptly change when he takes his niece to the new preschool, Blue Owl. The director, Priscilla "Cilla" Prescott, is beautiful. However, Jem quickly learns that Cilla has no time for any male over the age of five. The Blue Owl is her life as she has sunk her inheritance in the Montessori preschool. However, this is one bachelor who knows what he wants and he wants Cilla as his wife. He will do anything, even if it means looking foolish, to achieve his goal.THE RANCHER TALES A WIFE feels like a homecoming tale as readers return to Glory and the charcaters connected to previous novels written by Judith Bowen. Jem's brother starred in THE RANCHER'S RUNAWAY BRIDE and Cilla's sister Mary rented a cabin to Virginia Lake in THE DOCTOR'S DAUGHTER. This time Cilla and Jem are the lead characters. Their personalities and squabbles shine throughout the humorous and entertaining story line. The secondary cast augments the plot by making Glory seem ever more alive. Fans of modern day ranch romances will relish this tale and seek out the previous "Men of Glory" novels.Harriet Klausner
