Description
As new owner of the falling-apart family homestead in West Texas, Dee Bennett is wrangling ways to earn a living, mend fences with farm and family, and manifest her dreams as a writer--all while nurturing the budding relationship with her beau, outdoorsy photographer Max Miller. But when a drop-dead-gorgeous, high-powered handler for a candidate in a key statewide election blows into Claxton, rivalries bigger than politics and football develop.
With stakes running high on the campaign trail, as well as in publishing dreams and love lives, a Bennett family wedding must be attended to. And Dr. Dee, with the assistance of her motley writing-group protégés, must search her soul and fend off a host of challenges to live the life she just might learn to love.
Advance Praise
"Ellington and Brannon have done it again! With warm
humor and just the right touch of West Texas congeniality, they tell the
continuing story of writer and professor Dr. Dee's return to her family
homestead. As she juggles jobs as a part-time journalist and part-time
librarian to make ends meet, Dee finds herself smack in the middle of an
unsavory political campaign. And that's on top of the romance that seems to
swirl around her. A fun read. I'm already waiting for the next book in this
series!
" -- Arleen Williams
"A Wedding at Paragraph Ranch drew me into its pages with the creation of
a community--Claxton, Texas. Dr. Dee Bennett, in the first of the
"Paragraph Ranch" series, comes home to care for an ailing mother and
winds up staying in Claxton
. . .
The tone that Ellington and Brannon establish reminds me of the Mitford series with its depiction of small-town life
. . .
There's plenty of humor, too. Dee's mother, the obstinate Alice Bennett, says words like "thurrapy" (therapy) and insults Dee's cooking in original ways. The two goats who like to escape their pens and ensconce themselves in the porch chairs are ready to make appearances, whether it's taking down the enemy or photo-bombing a snapshot of a tender moment.
