I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.

Loving ElizaLoving Eliza by Ruth Ann Nordin
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is the third book of Ruth Ann Nordin which I downloaded to my Nook library when it was free. I liked the story of Eliza and John so much I read it in a day. I only give it three stars because I can't recommend it to some family members because some scenes are worth an R rating.
Read this only if you are willing to overlook anachronisms in a novel that claims to be set in a definite time and place, such as June 1883, southern Dakota territory.

A Husband for Margaret (Nebraska Historicals, #3)A Husband for Margaret by Ruth Ann Nordin
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

This was a sequel to A Bride for Tom which I downloaded to my Nook library when it was free.
Like some other reviewers on Goodreads, I was disappointed when the wedding night scene went R, or at least TV-MA, when the first book did not. This make is difficult for me to recommend to other family members.
I was also disappointed how manipulative Margaret was with Debra, even if things worked out.

A Bride for Tom (Nebraska Historicals, #2)A Bride for Tom by Ruth Ann Nordin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Bride for Tom is the first of three books by Ruth Ann Nordin I have in my Nook library which I downloaded for free from Barnes and Noble. These are romances set in the historical time of 1868 Omaha, Nebraska. Don't expect historical facts or much description in this 88-page book.
The story is entertaining.
I recommend it to readers who enjoy this genre.
