Great Debut.

What fun! Rachelle Nelson delivers a light, humorous western and delivers it in grand style. Among these pages, the reader will find nothing but sweetness and gentle desire. Beautiful Venus Daltry is a notorious flirt, but when her grandmother sends her on her birthday excursion, she encounters a man who cannot appreciate her bountiful charms . . . for Sanford Buchanan is blind! To gain her Grandma's favor, Venus must spend one year on horseback jaunting from Texas to Nevada. Inconceivably, Venus will act as dime novelist "Buck" Buchanan's uninspired assistant. They know Grandma Minerva Daltry in her family for the inscrutable labors she assigns her grandchildren on their twentieth birthday. This year it is Venus Daltry's turn and Venus is not very happy with her grandmother's choice. How could her grandmother make such a demand? One year on the back of a horse, with a man who is grumpy, insensitive, and oblivious to her natural beauty. Oh, what could be worse? Sanford "Buck" Buchanan cannot believe his luck! Instead of a male assistant, Sanford has landed a corset wearing, bustle-clad woman. A spoiled, pampered female who insists on spraying perfume everywhere including the hind end of her horse. Oh, just what could be worse? Riding across the American west, Venus and Sanford soon develop a friendly working relationship. A working relationship that grows into love and proves Grandma Daltry is a prolific gift giver! Evidently, THE FLIRT is author Rachelle Nelson's debut book, and what a terrific beginning! Ms. Nelson has created a wonderful story, complete with delightful characters that pour out warmth, fun, and entertainment. THE FLIRT is a great addition to the Jove publishing series of "Sons & Daughters." Copies of Rachelle Nelson's book are hard to find, but well worth the search. Grade: A- MaryGrace Meloche.
