An independent young woman decides to slip from a dull engagement and forge her own path, quickly learning that path leads into the arms of a rugged sailor, in Tender Wings of Desire by Catherine Kovach (writing as, of all people, Colonel Sanders).
Tender Wings of Desire was offered as a free Kindle download as part of a Kentucky Fried Chicken promotion. It was very interesting to me, because of the thought that a fast food franchise believed that somebody might want to read a book, instead of play a game or mess around on an app. And they were right, which is really something to meditate on.
The second surprise is that the novella is pretty straight-faced, and hits all the right beats for fans of the romance genre. The setting is sort of quasi-Austen, and the characters hit comfortable notes. Despite the trappings, Kovach took her job seriously, and delivered for fans.
Tender Wings of Desire is a quick, accessible read and worthwhile, especially for readers of the genre.
