G. Preston is looking to choose a wife and devises a Survivor-style game where the winner gets possibly the love of her life. The rules are never simple and one lady is sent home each month until only Mrs. Right re- mains. Will Lady Luck choose practical Audrey, who lied on her application; or Charlotte, the Southern Belle who knows all about antiques and how to please a man? Or graceful Virginia who has a secret, quiet little Natalie, or redheaded Holly with her Dolly Parton chest? Or Marge, the oldest who does her best to keep the peace between an ex-Miss America finalist and Vicki, the beautiful, daring vixen?<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-16514\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/CarylMcAdoo.jpg\" alt=\"Caryl McAdoo\" width=\"190\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/CarylMcAdoo.jpg 190w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/CarylMcAdoo-95x150.jpg 95w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/CarylMcAdoo-150x236.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 190px) 100vw, 190px\" \/>Caryl has always loved to write and has published several books including the three novels of the Texas Romance series.
