New Book Review: Apple of His Eye

Title: Apple of His Eye

Author: Kimberly Burkhardt

Date: 2023

Publisher: Kimberly Burkhardt

Quote:  "God had done nothing except punish her...First her child and then, a year later, her husband."

The widow Roberts' given name is Faith, but she's close to losing it in the spring of 1888. Harvey Roberts was distant and secretive in the year before he died. Now a greedy neighbor wants her land, an old friend is in town, and t save her land from the greedy neighbor she agrees to marry her old friend Caleb on condition that it will be a marriage in name only. Caleb agrees to that, feeling confident of being released from the agreement soon. He's come to town as a "Pinkerton" man--a proto-police detective--with an agenda that includes proving that the greedy neighbor has hired the man who murdered Harvey Roberts. 

This is a sweet romance with no explicit sex. Still it's written in a tactile enough way that some women might want to hide it from the kids. Recommended to married women who want to rekindle specifically tactile, voluptuous feelings.
