#50BookPledge Book 32 The Proposal and Solid Soul

The Proposal and Solid Soul by Brenda Jackson from Harlequin Desire 2010 (2 books in one).

This was my second time reading a Brenda Jackson book and a much more enjoyable experience. 

The Proposal is the romance of Elizabeth (Bella) Bostwick, who is trying to get out from under her parents thumb, and Jason Westmoreland, a horse breeder.   The story starts with Bella moving away from her parents to start a new life. She meets the hero of the story and after a few misunderstanding they fall in love.  There are forces at work to keep them apart like her great uncle and his grandkids as well as her parents.  However, Jason's family fully supports their relationship.  After a few tense chapters where Bella's house is vandalized then set ablaze Bella agrees to marriage.  Of course there is more misunderstanding that disappear when Jason declares his love for Bella.  Then they go on to live happily ever after.  I recommend buying separately from Solid Soul.

Solid Soul is the second book and I just skimmed it as the first chapter was about two scheming teenagers trying to match up their parents didn't appeal to me.  Of course the teens are successful ad the parents agree to marry which ultimately makes it hard for the teens to act on their feelings.
