Contemporary Romance, Western

While healing a broken heart, image consultant Naomi Katz is stunned when rancher Shane Fortune asks for her help—finding a wife! Years ago they’d had one date that ended awkwardly…before he swept another woman off her feet. Now he's back, convinced that "fake dating" Naomi is his ticket to matrimony with Mrs. Right. Soon they're sharing romantic dinners, cozy evenings at home, and Shane and his son, Brady, even join Naomi's family for a Passover Seder.  As the spring weather blooms, perhaps Shane and Naomi can look beyond their differences—and their past mistakes—to find a new beginning…together.

As we come across books that are described as having Jewish main characters, we add them to this database. The creators of the Jewish Genre Reading Challenge have not read all (or even most) of the books in this database. We have gathered information from many sources and not all may be accurate. Inclusion of a book in our database does not imply endorsement or approval. There is always the possibility that antisemitism may be present in a book, either written into a character's experience or through malicious or ignorant caricature or stereotypical portrayal of Jewish characters and culture. Please take care of yourselves as you read.

Please let us know if you encounter a book in this database that does not have a Jewish main character, if you have corrections or additions for a book's genre categories, or if you have any other concerns about the inclusion of a particular book in this database.
