Publisher Description
Down in Whynot, NC, there are three things that hold true: 1) life moves just a little bit slower, 2) family means everything, and 3) you don’t mess with history.
When his family decides to sell a home that’s been part of their history for over a century, Lowe Mancinkus is madder than a hornet. To add insult to injury, the woman who purchased it is some fancy pants, city girl looking to fix it up and sell it off. Doesn’t matter that she’s sexy as hell or that just being near her gets his blood racing like never before. That home belongs to his family, or at least it did until she came to town.
Well that just won’t do, now will it?
From the moment that she laid eyes on the historical home in rural North Carolina, Melinda Rothschild knew Mainer House was something special. The perfect escape from life in New York City, Melinda signed the papers and set to work restoring the house to its natural beauty. That is until an angry Lowe showed up on her doorstep one day. With a scowl on his handsome, chiseled face. And a shotgun in his strong, muscular arms.
Is it getting hot in here?
Melinda’s about to get a lesson on life in the south, but Lowe is about to learn a lesson of his own – this city girl doesn’t back down from a fight.
Customer Reviews
Loved it
This was a fun, quick read full of romance, laughter and love of family. This is Lowe Mancinkus and Melinda Rothschild's story and I loved it from start to finish, it was amazing.
Ms. Poe described Whynot in such great detail that I would love to visit. I love the idea of a small town where everyone knows you; although as Lowe and Melinda found out that can be annoying at times.
Lowe is furious when his family decides to sell their historical home Mainer House in town. Even worse Melinda, the woman who purchased the house is from the city and plans to renovate and sell it. Or does she? What she doesn't count on is hot, determined and angry Lowe, turning up on the doorstep with a shotgun determined to stop her.
Melinda is just as determined not to give in to Lowe and what follows is a funy tale full of anger, laughs and tension which is extremely well written.
Trixie's grandfather Pap is a great secondary character, as is the whole family and I hope he actually gets his own story. In fact, all the characters made me smile and I cannot wait until we visit Whynot, North Carolina again as I am anxious to see who will be next in the series.
Stubborn as a Mule is a funny, romantic book and I loved it.
