Shotgun Wedding | 
A 19th century small town woman trying to be modern and independent takes a lover, and stirs up an astonishing heap of trouble. I went back and forth over whether to make this a pick or so-so. Osborne is an excellent historical romance writer, and the immersive atmosphere and characterizations are a plus -- but a lot of it is just so miserable to read. It was not a pleasant road to the happy ending.
