Ahhhh---an amnesiatic (if that's not a word, I'm making it one) bride. Cordell finds a car in a cornfield. Inside he finds Abby wearing a wedding dress and unable to remember anything other than her first name. The car has no registration or plates and Abby has no identification.
After a night in the hospital, Abby has a choice to make. She can either ride an hour with the sleazy sheriff to a battered women's shelter where she can stay for a while. Or, she can take Cordell up on his offer to recover at his farmhouse with him and his two children.
Cordell's wife died 2 years ago. She was a high-maintenance woman who was never happy on the farm. She also had more than one affair during their marriage. Cordell is determined to never marry or fall in love again (is there a hero out there who is looking for love?), but he does enjoy the cooking and cleaning Abby is doing while she stays in his house.
While Abby would like to explore her attraction to Cordell, he resists at every turn. After all, she already ran from one man at her wedding. What's to keep her from leaving him? Cordell is positive once her memory returns she will want no part of farm life.
I'm not exactly sure what I was hoping for at the end of the book, but the resolution left me feeling flat. The beginning held such promise but it didn't deliver.
