Storm in a Rain Barrel by Anne Mather (Large Print Softcover)

Description from the book back cover: When her guardian and only relative, Great-Uncle Henry Farriday, died, Domine Grainger was rather daunted to learn that he had arranged for her to be looked after by the unknown James Mannering until she reached the age of eighteen. Still, that was only six months away, Domine consoled herself - not knowing that they were to be the most difficult six months of her life ...

Guardian Forever

This was a very sweet romance that I enjoyed. Young 17 year old Domine was orphaned at a very early age but was put through school by a rich old man who seemed to be fond of her. After he died, she had to leave her convent school and was thrust in the home of James, her new guardian. Although 20 years older than herself, she still found him very attactive, as he did her. But he fought his feelings for as long as possible, until neither could deny their love anymore. A pleasant story, although a bit boring and stale in places, and sometimes Ms. Mather was a bit hard to understand where she was going with some scenes and plot lines. But over all, I'd recommend it to anyone who likes romance of a lighter flavor. Cyndi
