Narrative To Books Head in the Clouds
Adelaide Proctor is a young woman with her head in the clouds, longing for a real-life storybook hero to claim as her own. But when a husband-hunting debacle leaves her humiliated, she interviews for a staid governess position on a central Texas sheep ranch and vows to leave her romantic yearnings behind.When Gideon Westcott left his privileged life in England to make a name for himself in America's wool industry, he never expected to become a father overnight. And five-year-old Isabella hasn't uttered a word since she lost her mother. The unconventionality of the new governess concerns Gideon--and intrigues him at the same time. But he can't afford distractions. He has a ranch to run, a shearing to oversee, and a suspicious fence-cutting to investigate.
When Isabella's uncle comes to claim the child--and her inheritance--Gideon and Adelaide must work together to protect Isabella from the man's evil schemes. And soon neither can deny their growing attraction. But after so many heartbreaks, will Adelaide be willing to get her head out of the clouds and put her heart on the line?

Adelaide is a romantic. A ranchers daughter, former schoolteacher, and Jane-Eyre-loving daydreamer who only wears yellow and takes her horse, Sheba, wherever she goes.First to town. Where things DONT proceed in Jane-Eyre-esque fashion.And then, on a spur of the moment compulsion . . .To the Westcott ranch.Where she runs straight into Gideon Westcott.Who already has one unfathomable girl under his roof (five-year-old Isabella, who hasnt spoken since her mothers death).And now most certainly hasWitemeyer never disappoints the reader! She held my attention from the first page to the last. I read this book by audio and the narrator did an awesome job. She was not boring to listen and changed her tones with the characters.
I absolutely loved this book. It is so cheesy and fluffy (maybe even too cheesy?), but sometimes its good to get a little bit of a break from serious stuffI myself am a romantic, so I could completely relate to Adelaide in her longing for fluffy romantic relationship. I loved how things that were sort of unclear in the beginning of this book made complete sense later on. The story was so sweet and though it was (obviously) predictable, the sense of danger and suspense sort of propelled you
👏 ALL 👏 THE 👏 FEELS 👏Towards the end of March I just felt like I needed to re-read something on my shelves. (Crazy, I know! Considering the piles of unread books I own) But sometimes you just need to grab a favorite and revisit that wonderful world. I wasn't entirely sure what I wanted, but I just knew I wanted something. (Sounds like me when I'm hungry 😏)A few weeks ago I talked about some life changes on my booktube channel. One of those being me becoming a live-in nanny to two crazy, but also
4 starsSweet romance with a touch of suspense. All of the characters are likeable, I enjoyed the sheep ranch setting, and the gentle humor carried eased some emotionally tense moments. The only reason I didn't find this too preachy, though, is because of the time period.
When Adelaide Proctor finds herself in a new town, jobless and heartbroken, she decides to apply for a position as a governess. After spending many years reading enchanting novels and dreaming about her perfect hero, she realizes that it is time to stop dreaming and start living a real life. She does not imagine that sometimes real life may be more fascinating and breathtaking than her books.The thing I always like when I read a Karen Witemeyer book is that I feel exactly all the emotions the
Cute story, entertaining and a light fast read. If you like clean romance, Head in the Clouds is a good choice.
