It is also a plus to find a good message of faith woven through her stories. &#8220;At Love&#8217;s Bidding&#8221; did not disappoint with plenty of laugh-out-loud moments and a sweet romance that kept me happily reading and satisfied at its end.<\/p>\n<p>I loved this tale about Miranda Wimplegate who travels with her grandfather to Missouri where their new auction house is located, hoping to find a valuable portrait before it is too late. The fun really begins upon their arrival in Missouri where they find themselves over their heads with their new business that is not at all what they expected. It was quite enjoyable reading about Miranda&#8217;s efforts to keep up with her grandfather and her interactions with Wyatt Ballentine were fascinating.<\/p>\n<p>As always, the reader can expect some amusing conflicts between the primary characters before the romance commences. A unique group of secondary characters offers added interest and support to the story. Rather than chance revealing more and spoiling the story, I suggest an immediate trip to the closest bookstore or favorite online retailer to pick up your own copy of &#8220;At Love&#8217;s Bidding&#8221;.
