Fit to Be Tied

The Bucklin family loves each other too much to stay away. . . but not enough to behave
Being rich is fine, but when wealth comes from striking oil, it’s a slippery mess for a family who doesn’t know what to do with it. The Bucklin cousins are all together again, and this family reunion is shaping up to be another disaster.
Coralee falls for the police officer who pulls her over. Sally has finally found a guy, but now she’s not sure a relationship is even worth the bother. No matter how hard Brett tries to avoid trouble, he somehow stumbles right back into the thick of it. And Marybeth and Bucky continue to fumble and bumble as they learn how to handle being rich.
The Bucklin family is known for drama–and Bucklin family drama knows no bounds.
ISLAND BREEZES
Raise your hand if you’ve ever been to a family reunion. Raise your hand again if as a teen you dreaded being forced to go to one. You probably thought those reunions were boring.
They were. Compared to the Bucklin family reunions they were as exciting as watching grass grow. Their reunions have people in two towns talking. It was a big deal to be invited to a Bucklin reunion. It was the spectator event of the season.
Notice I said season. This wasn’t a yearly event. These reunions were not only notorious, but also frequent. Also very interesting. Not to mention all the groaning tables of food.
This is a good stand alone read, but you will appreciate the family more if you read High Cotton first.
Thank you, Debby Mayne. Keep those Bucklins stirred up for us. I eagerly await their next reunion.
