The Mail Order Men miniseries continues this month with A WAY WITH WOMEN by Jule McBride. When Harper Moody, the postmistress of Pine Hills, interferes with the letters responding to Macon McCann's add in Texas Men, she sets into motion life changing events.Harper daringly steams open Macon's letters and answers them herself. She figures she's entitled since she's the mother of his child, even if he doesn't know it. When she'd gone to tell Macon of her pregnancy with Christopher, she'd found him with someone else. So she'd married the pharmacists and never looked back. Now Harper's widowed, and she still hurts over the fact that Macon had left town all those years ago and never looked back.When no one answered his ad, Macon should have gotten suspicious. A chance glance at Harper's desk while she was in the restroom proves what's happened to all of Macon's ad responses. And since his father won't hand over control of the ranch until he gets married, Macon doesn't have a lot of time for Haper's games. So he goes to her house to confront her over the letters, and finds himself making love to her instead. Shortly thereafter, Christopher announces that Macon's his father.I find it refreshing that not only does the teen son know the truth of his parentage, if his mother isn't aware of his knowledge, and informs his father himself! Such highly charged emotional scenes of A WAY WITH WOMEN add to its fun and quick moving plot. The steamy love making and warm characters make for a charming tale, though I did find myself a bit impatient at times with Macon's reputation with women. Recommended.
