From Under The Covers, The Word Museum January 1999
A contemporary romance, The February Wife is an exercise in smiles, laughter, and some interesting situations. Aunt Milly is determined to get her nephew, Jared Sinclair, married and back on the huge Sinclair Ranch. Although he loves his aunt dearly, he isn't interested in getting married or being a rancher--but maybe her latest ploy, if it is a ploy, will change his mind at least temporarily.
Caroline Anders, who figures quite high in Milly 's marriage plan, isn't wanting to get married either--but she does want to make the situation easier for Milly. But things are never exactly what they seem in this delightful tale of animals, interfering relatives, plots and plans gone awry, and some truly charming characters.
Ms. Leonard has taken the temporary marriage plot, given it a couple of twists, added a llama, a donkey, and lots of laugh provoking scenes. Aunt Milly is devious, wise, and earthy--and she does have her ways of getting her own way. This is a great read--its only fault is that it's too short. I was disappointed when I had to close the screen on these well-defined, totally entertaining characters. The February Wife is a read for all seasons.
