Debbie Macomber has written much better stories than these. These are superficial and full of stereotypes and cliches - it seemed like they were written in the 1980s because of the views of the characters. If you are a fan of this author you will be disappointed and if you are coming to her for the first time then try the Cedar Cove books, significantly better. ( )

The Manning Sisters is an omnibus of the first two novels by Debbie Macomber in the six-part Manning series. The first novel, The Cowboy’s Lady, has rancher Russ Palmer falling in love with the new teacher in town, city-girl Taylor Manning. Neither are convinced they are right for each other, although to everyone around them, it is quite plain to see. The second novel, The Sheriff Takes a Wife, has the sheriff (and Russ Palmer’s friend), Cody Franklin falling for Taylor’s sister Christy when she arrives to help out as Taylor gives birth. The spanner in the works is that Christy is already engaged. In both novels, the parents are denied the elaborate wedding they hoped to give their daughters, city girls who end up living in Custer County. Another two delightful Macomber romances. ( )

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0778323501, Mass Market Paperback)

"The only woman who interests me is you."

—Russ Palmer, rancher

When Taylor Manning accepts a teaching job in Cougar Point, Montana, she discovers that life there is very different from life in Seattle. So are the men! She soon notices a handsome, opinionated, stubborn rancher named Russ Palmer, and he notices her. In fact, they more than notice each other.… After only a few months, Taylor's certain of one thing. Despite their conflicting backgrounds, she'd love to be The Cowboy's Lady.

"I feel as if I've been waiting for you all my life."

—Cody Franklin, sheriff of Custer County

The first day Christy Manning visits her sister, Taylor, she meets Sheriff Cody Franklin. To Christy's shock—and Cody's—they're immediately attracted to each other. Intensely attracted. There's a problem, though. Christy's engaged to someone else, someone back in Seattle. So what's the solution? See what happens when The Sheriff Takes a Wife….
