Courting Carrie in Wonderland by Carla Kelly.Audience/Genre: Historical Romance.
Publication: March 1st 2017 by Sweetwater Books.
Struggling through college and balancing her summer job in Yellowstone Park with the Wylie Camping Company, Carrie McKay simply doesn't have time to consider romance. Spanish American War Veteran Sergeant Major Ramsay Stiles also isn't looking for love, busy with his own complicated affairs. But as the magic of Yellowstone starts making its way into their hearts, both begin to see love move up their priority list.
I have to admit I almost stopped reading the book at the beginning. I found that it couldn't keep my attention and I didn't understand what was going on. But I read on and I really am glad I did! Carrie is a caring, stubborn and more of a modern girl from those times. Ramsey is a good man who does what is right and follows through whatever he believes in.
The relationship between Carrie and Ramsey was just right in the timing, neither too fast or too slow. They fit together perfectly. They love serving others and keeping busy. They have good people that they surround themselves with and both have had bad experiences in the past and have come through them without pity, self loathing or withdrawing from the world. That made them stronger!
I loved learning things of the Yellowstone Park while reading this. I've never been there but it made me want to go. Carla Kelly writes information after the book about this time and where alot of her information comes from and more on it. I loved reading that too!
If you like wolves, bridges, military, heroes, magic tricks, singing, President Roosevelt, cherry pies, Yellowstone Park, doing what you know is right then this might be for you!
