Jennings does it again with "A Most Inconvenient Marriage"

I just (I mean JUST) finished A Most Inconvenient Marriage by Regina Jennings. I don't know how she does it, but Mrs. Jennings manages to incorporate just the right mixture of humor, romance, and seriousness in this book to make it a really great read. I found it hard to put down.  Certain sections had me in stitches, while other sections had me near to tears. This was an excellent book and I look forward to reading the books she puts out in the future. 

Abigail thinks she is (was) married to Jeremiah Calhoun, a man she believes died as a result of injuries sustained in the Civil War. When she discovers that he is in fact alive, she doesn't rightly know what to do with herself.  And he doesn't rightly know what to do with her.  What seems inconvenient at the moment is in fact most convenient for all parties involved. What follows is a tale with as many ups and downs as the mountains of Missouri where the story is set.  Mrs. Jennings creates believable characters who go through joyous and sad occasions just as any real person would. They are not "perfect" characters, they have faults just like the rest of us, which makes them "real" characters. 

I really enjoyed reading about the lives of Abigail and Jeremiah and learning about their personalities.  "Watching" as they makes decisions about their lives, and the paths they should take makes me think about my own life.  The mixture of humor, romance, and drama creates the perfect panamora for a great book. When I say humor, I mean the rolling around with tears running down your face humor. This is a good book for anyone who enjoys romance with some adventure and a lot of humor thrown in.
