About the Book
God’s perfect plan is sometimes so hard to determine. Gwendolyn, Cecelia, and the youngest, Bonnie, make a pact never to break their father’s heart like their big sister did. Then their determination is sorely tried when suitors show up, and he gets so pigheaded with his rules. Will Henry survive his daughters coming of age? Will they endure and keep their promises to each other?
From one man asking to court her—who Daddy sends packing—Gwen goes to three! How can she ever decide? Cecelia knows exactly who she wants, but she’s still a year away from Daddy’s acceptable courting age. What if her beau doesn’t know or won’t wait? And Bonnie hates being the baby and wants to be grown-up more than just about anything…except her man. She is for sure and for certain in love. In his life, Henry Buckmeyer has never been so beside himself. His little girls are so young, just babies, too young. He hates the whole idea of men coming to take them away and is inclined to shoot every one of them, but praise God for a levelheaded, loving wife and step-mother! She helps keep him sane amidst the female chaos. Packed with fun, romance, deception, action, heartbreak and tears, this delightful Christian novel keeps the twists and turns coming. Will the Buckmeyer home ever be settled and peaceful again? Will any of his daughters find true love…a man he'll approve and to whom he can give his blessing? About the Author
Caryl, praying her story gives God glory, loves writing for Christian genres--historical and contemporary romance, Biblical fiction, and mid-grade especially. In 2014, Simon and Schuster debuted VOW UNBROKEN, a historical Christian romance set in 1832 Texas, and Caryl followed with three additional novels. In April, LADY LUCK'S A
LOSER (contemporary, mature, inspirational romance) September's debut, HEARTS STOLEN (set in 1839-1844), book two of her historical Christian Texas Romances--a #1 Amazon Best-seller, and in November, A LITTLE LOWER THAN THE ANGELS, volume one of her new Biblical fiction series, The Generations--also an Amazon #1 Best-seller. For every good blessing - including ten children (four by birth, six by marriage) and sixteen grandsugars - she gives God the glory. Caryl lives a country-life with Ron, her high school sweetheart husband of forty-seven years and two grandsons, in the woods a few miles south of Clarksville, Red River County seat, located in far Northeast Texas with two grandsons Christian (16) and Benjamen (13). Review
Full adventure, mischief, and romance, author Caryl McAdoo has written an entertaining and enjoyable historical fiction, romance novel that readers will love. Getting to know the Buckmeyer sisters, Gwendolyn, Cecelia, and Bonnie, is quite the venture, as each sister has her own story. Although readers may not get especially attached to the characters and their relationships with one another, this story is still fun and will touch your heart. I would recommend this novel to readers that are ready for a historical fiction, Texas-romance adventure novel.

Hi, Caryl. I met my husband in a singles' Sunday School class. He was the oldest one in the class and I was the youngest. He was 26 and I was 18. We will be married 37 years next month. 9/12/2015 07:05:30 pm
Oh how fun, Susan! Isn't it funny how back then we didn't know how important the divine appointment was. I just love being God's and how He operates in our lives! Hugs and blessings!

I met Don when I was eighteen. I was at the Dairy Queen in Irving Texas. I had just come from seeing a guy at the Naval base. Some of my friend drove up and parked beside me. Don was with them. I was so smitten and so was he. we have been together 51 yrs and I love him more every day, Thank you Jesus. 9/12/2015 07:10:56 pm
Awww I remember a DQ on Beltline was there another one up near Loop 12? I can remember thing how good looking Ron was, too :) And he told his mama after the second date - the first night after the first date - that he'd met the girl he was going to marry. She told me that years later :) I love you, Margaret. What's it been? 40 years this year!!
