5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Captivating! 5 Jun 2001
By "joiejo" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I have to admit when I first picked up the book The Rancher's Daughter: Behaving Herself I was excited about the read but it was a little slow to get into. Audra was testing my nerves as well as Jack's! But as I kept turning the pages I learned why she was the way she was and I felt her pain and shame over the terrible scandal.

Indeed Jack was one of the best gamblers that I have ever read and for Audra's sake I kept praying that he would stop his horrible ways. As page 50 turned into a 100 then to 150 we saw Jack change from gambler who dabbled with the whiskey bottle to a gentleman all for the sake of the schoolmarm.

It was great watching Audra blossom in front of my eyes, growing from the shy girl who didn't want to cause *another* scandal to a woman who couldn't and wouldn't resist Jack's charming ways.

The ending was too perfect! Behaving Herself was a great way to start the series and I will definitely be keeping an eye out for Yvonne Jock's novels!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gamble on Yvonne Jocks For a First-Rate Read! 1 Sep 2000
By EB - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
A scoundrel like Jack Harwood was nothing but trouble to a respectable girl's good name and reputation. Gambling and alcohol were but a small sampling of his sinful vices. And Audra Garrison, her fine name already in question back home in Wyoming, must protect her public appearance at all costs. And that meant staying away from Jack Harwood. Especially since lady teachers had ever so many more rules to live by - and the eyes of the community watching her every move. Any involvement with the likes of Mr. Harwood would surely spell disaster to her name and possibly her teaching career. But Jack Harwood was oh so tempting!

Jack couldn't help himself. The lovely little schoolmarm had his attention and suddenly leaving Candon, Texas wasn't quite so pressing an urge. But with all those rules in place and Audra so aware of what was and was not acceptable behavior for a lady of her position, how could Jack manage to convince a respectable girl like Audra to gamble on a man such as himself? Suddenly, Jack is surprised to find he is willing to change his ways and risk all for the schoolmarm who had won his heart.

Yvonne Jocks has written an engaging novel with warm, wonderful characters her readers will give their hearts to. "The Rancher's Daughters: Behaving Herself" is a fine start to her "Rancher's Daughters" series. I'll surely be watching eagerly for the rest of the series. Nicely done, Ms. Jocks.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great western & period romance as well! Bravo! 17 May 2000
By "goddess891" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The other reviewers summed up the book eloquently, as did Ms. Jocks herself. She is an excellent writer, and this book is definitely a departure from her normally tougher heroines. Audra has a different kind of gentle strength fitting for the 1900s time period, and Jack is terrific, a rogue gambler with a devilish sense of humor. I was immediately struck by how much this story reminded me of Little House on the Prairie & Laura Ingalls. I don't usually like the western or the 1900s time period type of romance, but, I was impressed by this book nonetheless. Check out Ms. Jocks other work on Amazon.com in the anthology "Dangerous Magic", which is a different genre romance, and well worth looking into. She also wrote under the name "Evelyn Vaughn" in the Silhouette Shadows series, but, good luck finding those, because they are out-of-print. You've done it again, Von, great job!
