The second book in this anthology, "Married in Missouri," I just loved. All in all, "Rocky Mountain Wedding" was a nice, quick, casual read- interesting and without much too it.
It ended with a "two years later" epilogue that tied up the loose ends just a bit too nicely. The emotions felt a bit rushed at times, not moving naturally or gradually but quickly in order to fit into the story's length. I rooted for the heroine and hurt with her in the climax. I found it enjoyable, though without much depth.
Perhaps reading the other two first would have coloured the way I read the story, but as it was, I read it without having read the previous two in the series. I picked up "Mail Order Marriages" not realizing that the first story, "Rocky Mountain Wedding," by Jillian Hart, is the third in a trilogy about three brothers.
