Read by LibriVox Volunteers

(4.3 stars; 169 reviews)

Cattleman J.G. Whittemore, owner of the Flying U ranch in Montana, trusts the task of meeting his sister at the train to only one man, Chip. Chip’s not too keen on women. In his experience they come in only a few types: prissy “sweet young thing”, annoying cowgirl, or old maid that wants to drag him to church. He isn’t prepared for Miss Della Whittemore, the “Little Doctor.” She turns the ranch upside down, but can she turn Chip head over heels? (Summary by A. Gramour) (4 hr 40 min)

Reviews

enjoyed it


(5 stars)

Marty is the reason I keep coming back for another listen! I don't enjoy how he makes the little Dr sound but LOVE his voice for Chip!! I enjoyed the story line but honestly it's not the kind of book I'd normally listen to or read again and again. I just love his rendition of Chip!!

This guy Marty from the central coast of California ruined the whole story, He made the young Doctor sound like an old lady, terrible job. Please stop, you ruined a great story....you were terrible...

Kilmer was great


(2 stars)

I wish Richard Kilmer would finish the book. Marty should just keep to his own voice instead of trying to give each character a different voice.


(5 stars)

Glad Marty finished the book. I find Mr kilmer's readings tiresom. haven't finished on of his book readings. but Marty! he was awesome.


(4 stars)

very enjoyable. only problem was the character voices the second reader employed grated on the nerves


(4.5 stars)

A wonderful story of the ranching west, free of shoot-outs, and sweetened with clean romance.

sparky

Insipid female character... no bad guys..no plot to consider...a waste of time...although well read

Great story

Western love story with humorous bits swirled in. Never say never.
