Her Rebel Heart is a funny, lighthearted book. Kaci has so many one liners that makes her come off as a feather brain. Anyone willing to get to know her is in for quite the surprise. Lance almost lost that chance several of times. Maybe he's not as bright as we first thought.
If you're into comical romances then this book is perfect for you.

I absolutely loved Kaci and Lance. Kaci with her sassy southern charm and Lance with his patience and near understanding make them an almost perfect couple. So many snort inducing moments along with the heartaches. The perfectly blended story!
Kaci has sworn of men. And military men to be exact. Then a chance meeting and one of the hottest kisses shes ever had happens and nothing is the same.
Lance lives flying. And he loves his military career. He knows that flying is going to let him see the world. And when his fiancee leaves him almost at the altar everything changes. Then Kaci happens. Her upbeat out there personality is more than he's ever seen before. And he can't get eniugh of her. But he knows it can't last. She's a college professor and he's deploying in a few weeks.
Tey weren't looking for anything lasting but neither expected what happened. Can they overcome heartache and distance to be together? Will Kaci throw it all away because of his military background or will she listen to her rebel heart and take a chance on love?

Kaci, a Physicist and an ex-officer's wife, is one redneck who is smart and sassy with a mouth on her that will have you snort laughing throughout the book. With her Southern twang, Kaci's idioms were full of: "Sweet baby Jesus", “Sweet baby Jeremiah the bullfrog.", "Sweet baby (replace with any absolutely hilarious noun).", "Bless your heart", "Don't make me bless your heart twice." "Hush on up now."...and many more phrases that were pitch perfect in fitting her Southern personality...but not cheesy, or over the top. Lance, a Captain Flyboy, is her counter balance, a man who believes in her and accepts her in all her shining brilliance. He was the patience and understanding that had been evading Kaci since her father died.

I've read all the books in Ms Farrell's Misfit Brides series...enjoying each story, but Her Rebel Heart surpasses that series with its banter full of sharp wit, dialog that's smart, whipping you back and forth in how quickly it moves and changes. And not to forget the story itself, it is fresh and tantalizing, capturing your emotions early on...the pumpkin catapulting into the cornfield incident was part of the zany goodness that transpired throughout...or course, the potato gun shooting for closure is nearly a tie for the hilarity factor.

This is the second book I've read with the topic of discrimination of women in the field of academia and tenure track, in certain male dominated fields, as part of the story. Ms Farrell handles the subject matter with compassion and forthrightness...surely a topic that needs further exposure.

Now that I've been introduced to the ex-officer's wives club, I'm looking forward to reading more, I'm sure the next stories will leave an impact as this first book has done.
