Down-home charm and romance on the ranch. A Little Bit Country Stranded on the side of a country road with a broken-down car, Rorie Campbell is grateful when horse rancher Clay Franklin comes to her rescue. Stuck in the quirky small town, Rorie gets to know Clay, and she quickly starts to fall for the gruff, tough cowboy. Can a city girl make it work with a country man? Clay certainly thinks so. But their situation is...complicated. Clay and Rorie will have to sort out their feelings if they're going to be together. Country Bride Kate Logan is understandably devastated when her former fianc? marries someone else instead. At the wedding, after one glass of champagne, she spontaneously--foolishly--proposes to her longtime friend Luke Rivers. And Luke agrees. The rancher is a man of his word, and though Kate thinks they're making a mistake, he will not renege on his promise. Not only does he refuse to break the engagement, he insists that Kate actually loves him--and he'll prove it. "Romantic, warm, and a breeze to read." --Kirkus Reviews on Cottage by the Sea
Even though this was a reprint of two books I had not read, Debbie Macomber still is tops in my book. Her books are always down to earth and very easy to read.
an extremely heart-touching novel!!!

I love all of Debbie's books. Country Brides has a cute story line. I could not put it down. Debbie write's so you feel as if you were there in the small town she is writing about.
Enjoyable Book

I liked this book. The book is made up of 2 stories. I thought that the first story (A Little Bit Country) was more fun to read than the second story (Country Bride). In the second story, Kate just couldn't believe she was in love with Clay and this seemed a little far fetched to me. Over all it was still a good book.
Glad to see these stories again.

I read these stories after they were first released in 1990. They are charming country romance stories and a great summer escape. The first story:" A Little Bit Country" ties in with the second:"Country Bride". It was a joy for me to see this on the shelf of our local bookstore, as a fire that destroyed our home,3 days after Christmas 1999, destroyed or damaged all my books. Debbie Macomber books have always been "keepers" in my personal library!
