The Jordans are Megan’s nearest neighbors. Matt is the brother who raised her when their parents died. Megan Kimble is a whiz at marketing with a desire for a new life. Now she has a chance to start over, if only she can find herself. A time when Megan regrets decisions made for the wrong reasons. It’s a tragic time in Megan Kimble’s life when her beloved brother dies. A mere s added on to the end of most words or names will make it plural. And please remember that ‘s makes something possessive. Near as I can remember, the only bit of show Sanders brought to this was the welcoming friendliness and understanding of the townspeople. It reads as if Sanders filled in the outline but forgot to develop the issues, to bring any depth, drama, or tension. The romance is very insta on Todd’s part and isn’t written well.

And it’s another instance lost when tension and drama could have come in. Sanders drops in, at last, a brief note about her father’s treatment of his wife. She gets annoyed that Todd seems to be taking over her life, and he does get a bit stalkerish in his looming over Megan, including some very controlling moments that I expected, falsely, that Sanders would use to create minor conflict. There’s another opportunity for tension when Iian is interested in Megan, but it goes nowhere. It’s more of a la-la-la read as you coast along wondering when you’ll finish the story. Sanders does nothing to build drama for the penultimate scene. Huh? There is no buildup of tension until the very end when we’re suddenly hit over the hand with an anvil. Especially at that moment when I got jerked aback when Megan is annoyed that Todd is treating her so gently. Her fear of touch gets, well, touched on at the beginning and is swiftly overcome. Unfortunately, Sanders went overboard on the abusive ex and barely touched Megan’s intolerance for touch. The major conflict is two-fold: Megan’s abusive ex-husband and her inability to tolerate touch. If you don’t mind a lack of character or depth, then you’ll enjoy reading this sweet romance in which we get several happy endings and the set-up for another book in the series. I know the town is wonderful because Sanders told me. My Takeįinding Pride is a cute and cozy romance set in the lovely, warm, welcoming town of Pride.
