(More customer reviews)Matthew Tanner has received a terrifying message - His father is being held for ransom in Denver. Matthew has the money that is being demanded by his fathers kidnappers, but he needs help. He has little time to make the long journey to Denver..he needs the best guide that money can buy.
When Matthew hears the best is a scout called Fox, he eagerly seeks him out. Matthew is completely shocked to find that Fox isnt a "he" at all...Fox is a woman. A woman like no other.
Fox was once the one of the most sought after scouts, but an injury ended all of that...Until handsome Matthew Tanner shows up and pleads for her to help him to save his father. Fox takes one look at Tanner and the money he is willing to pay her and decides that this is one offer too good to refuse.
I have read many books by Maggie Osborne and have enjoyed her work time and time again. Unfortunately, Foxfire Bride didnt do much for me. I felt like the writing was very choppy. Scenes would leap from one paragraph to the next with no smooth transitions and POV switches were all over the place. It all felt rushed somehow.
My main complaint with this book was all about the characters - Fox especially. I dont expect every character to be a beauty. I dont have a problem with a heroine being average or even ugly, but Fox was just flat out unappealing. She was so manly, I just couldnt get past it.
As for Tanner...I just felt like he wasnt very memorable. He was very blah to me. I couldnt connect with him or Fox at all. This made it hard for me to really care about their story and its outcome.
As I said before, I have read Maggie Osborne in the past and enjoyed her. I will definitely give her a try again in the future, but as for Foxfire Bride, this is not a book that I would recommend.

Fox is a woman as feisty as they come. Once the most sought-after scout west of the Rockies, she led folks through wild, unexplored terrain–until a gunshot wound ended her guiding career. She's living a calmer life when a handsome stranger appears with an urgent request to take him to Denver immediately. The gold coins he offers catch Fox's eye–and so do his sharp good looks. Fox can't resist the chance to guide again, and can't ignore the fire that burns in her body whenever she sees this oh-so tempting man.Matthew Tanner has received a startling telegraph: His father is being held for ransom in Denver. With time running out, Matthew must find the best scout money can buy. When the best turns out to be a woman with gritty good looks and a wild mane of red hair, Matthew is both shocked and intrigued. Can Matthew and Fox's mutual desire and growing love survive the perils of their journey, or will their secrets destroy each other?
