I started with the MacGregors with the grandchildren's stories in the MacGregor Grooms and Brides books, and since have read every other one. I have been waiting for the rerelease of Daniel and Anna's story. I was not disappointed. I guess I had grown to love the arrogant, meddling, sweet old man and Anna's quiet strength in the other stories so much that I truly cried in the hospital scenes, not just a sniffly tear, but real ones. I loved Anna's strength and early woman's lib attitude. She really was a match for the arrogant Daniel. Thanks Nora for the stories of this wonderful family. I even enjoyed Ian and Allana's story, although it pales in comparison to Daniel and Anna.
