Previously published as Dejected in Denver in the Yours Truly: The Lovelorn series.Sometimes love requires a leap of faith . . .Molly Hill refuses to become a spinster. At twenty-four, her prospects are limited. Fearing she’ll be stuck working in her brother’s store in Cañon City, Colorado–where every man sees her as a little sister–for the rest of her life, she decides a change of location is … sister–for the rest of her life, she decides a change of location is in order. Before she knows it, her mother has arranged for Molly to spend a few months with relatives in Denver. Surely a larger town will yield a marriageable man—or even two!
Sheriff’s Deputy Eli Jennings has been sweet on Molly for months, ever since he was charged with keeping her safe from the man who threatened her brother’s store. But he’s never had the courage to tell her how he feels. When his mother requests his help in Denver with a mysterious man who’s been demanding repayment of unknown debts, Eli agrees. When he finds Molly on the same train, he hopes this will be the opportunity he’s waited for. But after they arrive, it seems Molly has already found someone else. In fact, she’s found an entire bevy of suitors.
Molly suddenly has more attention than she can handle. Visiting with Eli is like a breath of fresh air. And better yet, she can help him with his mother’s problem. After all, several of her new suitors are suspects in Eli’s investigation. As they spend more time together, Molly realizes how much she cares for Eli. How had she never noticed how kind and handsome he was? None of the men in Denver can measure up to him, no matter how much money they might have.
But Eli still can’t seem to gather the courage to make his feelings known. He’s on the verge of losing Molly to one of the men in Denver eager to marry her—any one of whom might be the man demanding money from Eli’s mother. The more Eli pulls away in jealousy, the more Molly fears she might wind up trapped in a loveless marriage far from home—and far from the man she truly loves.
Like all of Cat’s books, Molly is a sweet and clean romance that will warm your heart and fill you with hope.

Molly was stuck on Eli. Eli was dreaming about Molly. Despite the mutual interest, they were having trouble even speaking about their feelings. Then they find themselves on a train to Denver and now maybe they have a chance.
This is a wonderfully written historical romance, with a mystery to solve, that you just can not put down once you start reading it. The characters seem to come alive and are so engaging you can’t wait to find out how things work out. The storyline is interesting and full of tender romantic moments as the characters dance around each other trying to build up the courage to explore their feelings. The narrative was from both Eli and Molly’s point of view giving insight into their thoughts, emotions, motivations and actions. I loved how they react to the obstacles they face. If you like heartwarming historical romances that leave you feeling good, then pick up this book.

She is super popular in Denver where her aunt and uncle are very well off. Eli has had a crush on Molly, but can’t seem to talk to her. He just clams up. How can he compete with the beaus in Denver? Plus, Eli’s mother has a creditor breathing threats down her neck to collect debts supposedly left by her husband before his death. Can Eli find out the truth behind the debts? threats?

Molly and Eli are secretly attracted to each other, but they can’t gather up the courage to tell each other how they feel. She decides she wants a family like her brother and visiting her aunt and uncle in Denver would allow her to meet eligible men. Eli’s mother is being threatened to pay debts he believes are fictional, so he ends up going to investigate in Denver. One of Molly’s new suitors could be the culprit. There was some suspense as they work together solve the mystery and still plenty of romantic misunderstandings between them.

ONE ENTHRALLING DELIGHT
Delightful! Cat brings it home with this incredibly heartwarming treat, weaving a tapestry with all the misunderstandings, heartache, longing and distance, pining for the one soul searing mate that seems untouchable, wrapping this baby up sleek, shiny and tight. Cognizant of the instant realization and charged atmosphere, along with a slew of unnerving twists and shocking turns, testing our characters in ways they could have never envisioned. Negotiating through a minefield of deadly peril and cunning blackmail, maneuvering through the manipulations of a dark heart and malicious intent, searching clues and dispatching foes, propelling this baby to life flawlessly. Blurred lines and crushed boundaries, limitations are amplified and exploited, displaying the fervent facts, feels and fiascos, shifting this baby into overdrive, blasting it into a tizzy with astonishing impacts. The attraction and chemistry builds as each layer is peeled back exposing an undeniable connection and amplifying affections, binding them to one another perfectly. The characters, interactions and charged atmosphere along with qualities and traits that add depth and diversity, transform into genuine charismatic personalities. The scenes are abundantly descriptive with colorful details that blend and flow, creating a majestic backdrop that’s so rich and lively it feels like you can just reach out and touch it. Remarkable job Cat, thanks for sharing this little jewel with us.
This is a sweet clean romance with a mystery to solve. Molly and Eli’s story will keep you turning the pages to see what happens next. This book was an absolute joy to read. I received a complimentary copy and was not required to write a review. All opinions expressed are my own.
This was a sweet story. This is the second book in the Lovelorn series I have read and I thought it was great. I loved how in each of the books the characters get some romance advice from a news article and how as they try to do what the advice says, they find love. I loved how Molly and Eli already loved each other but how shy Eli was about sharing his feelings. This caused some misunderstanding on Molly’s part but I loved that they worked it out. I thought this was a really cute story and I’m glad that everything worked out in the end.
