Explanation As Books Summer Breeze (Coulters Historical #2)
The year is 1889, and Rachel Hollister hasn't set foot outside her house in five years. Ever since a savage attack left her family dead, she's cordoned herself off from the outside world, afraid to let anyone into her home—or into her heart. But now trouble has appeared on her doorstep—and suddenly she has no choice but to let a handsome rancher invade her well-guarded existence ...Confirmed bachelor Joseph Paxton grudgingly offers to take up temporary residence at the Hollister ranch—even though it's obvious Rachel doesn't want his protection. But once he catches a glimpse of his beautiful young ward and her remarkable spirit, he'll do anything to break through the dark spell that's walled off her heart. It may take a miracle, but he's determined to make her see the refuge he's offering in his embrace—and the splendor that exists beyond her front door. Otherwise he'll just have to build a safe haven big enough for the both of them ...

GOD! So. Many. Feels. This book just... These two. Ugh. I'm totally ugly-happy crying from how romantic it was. Funny, sweet, sad, exciting, mild sexy times but the build up was enough to know these two had as much chemistry in the bedroom as they did out. I'm racing over to buy this in paperback for my bookshelf of awesome ðŸ˜❤This book has a good premise but I didn't care for it that much. After seeing her family massacred the Rachel has become agoraphobic the last five years and is unable to leave her house. After Rachel's hired hand is shot Joseph comes to look after her (against his will) because he promises her hired hand he will.This is not a bad book, but I never got very invested in the story. Joseph is kind've a galoot. He doesn't come off as especially witty or intelligent. He also fights and denies his
One of the hardest questions anyone can ask me is "What is your favorite book?" But the ultimate tough question for anyone to ask me is "What is your favorite Catherine Anderson book?" Should you ever ask me that question, you will see in my face just how crazy I think you are... but I think I finally know the answer to this conundrum: Summer Breeze. Summer Breeze is my favorite Catherine Anderson book. There is only one way to describe it and that would be lovely. It is heartbreakingly lovely
Summer Breeze was an easy read.What I liked--the old-fashioned part of the love story (love can endure past the initial attractions), the twist at the end, and the way the author made the story easy to follow. However, What I didn't like -- the modern phrases (that took away the feeling of being in 1889) and a little too much sugary dialogue (that became redundant).
This book is nothing super remarkable. Standard Anderson fare; broken heroine, studly hero, love at first sight, lots of drama and a happily ever after. But I couldn't help liking it a bit anyway.Rachel's trauma is more than the usual Evil Ex or rape Anderson's heroines tend to be saddled with. Instead the poor woman's been hiding from the world since she watched her entire family die. She has trust issues with just about EVERYONE, and only lets Joseph into her house because she has no choice.
This delightful historical romance about a rancher and an agoraphobic neighbor is heartwarming, sweet and funny. I'm writing this weeks after I read it, without the book in front of me, so names are escaping me but our hero isn't looking for a wife or love or any other frippery. He sees how happy his older step-brother is with his wife and son but likes not having complications. Running a ranch is complication enough. The young woman in question has retreated inside her home to the point where
