I listened to this one on audio. The narrator, Alan Taylor is fantastic!
I loved the realness of this story. Trying to write with a broken arm, then the person reading it thinking, whoa, what is happening. I loved the relationship between the character and her employer.
3.5 stars- This book focuses on Jacob, the sheriff of Bear Creek, he is a good guy and takes his job very seriously. He decides he needs a wife so he seeks out his own mail order bride. Rosa comes to town with the possibility of becoming a wife. The miners in town start getting really sick but no one knows why it is happening. Rosa comes down with some kind of sickness which she thinks is from her travels, which is kind of true. Medicine in this town is pretty minimal so anything major is bad news. The Sioux offer to bring in a teepee to make a sweat hut and herbs for the ill men. This helps bridge some of the discord that has been happening between them and the miners. Rosa and Jacob realize they are a good match together and he proposes marriage.

Sweet Historical Romance
This was a delightful tale! Even though a few characters are from book one, I think it could still be enjoyed as a stand alone! My favorite parts are the positive interactions with the Sioux tribe nearby! The narration was again very well done!!
A Faithful Bride for the Wounded Sheriff
Bear Creek Brides, Book 2
By: Amelia Rose
Narrated by: Alan Taylor
Sheriff Jacob Bennings has sent for a mail order bride. Rosa answers his letter and they hit it off. He sends for her sooner than expected, but she goes from Boston to Montana to help out with the local restaurant. The two have a sweet, budding relationship and Rosa begins to fit in her new life. What isn’t expected is Jacob’s broken arm and the amount it damages his confidence. Will he be able to defend Rosa from the dangers of the frontier? And what he doesn’t expect is an enemy that can’t be physically fought! This story is a clean, loving listen, with an interesting twist with the aid of Sioux Indians. It’s always fun to see our friends from the first book in the series come giving continuity in the storyline and a sense of community in the small town. Narrated by the talents of Alan Taylor, he brings the town to life with his warm baritone voice giving us an entertaining listen.

Nice, clean historical mail order bride western romance. Rosa and the Sheriff are well written characters. Indians, illness and bank robbers, but Rosa adapts well in Bear Creek.
I received a free copy of this book and this is my voluntary, honest review.
A sweet, mail order bride historical western.
Both Jacob and Rosa were kind people concerned about the town. Rosa being a Bear Creek transplant from Boston encountered many new tasks that she took on with zeal. She also had to become comfortable with the more rustic nature of Bear Creek.
Jacob and Rosa’s romance developed slowly as the got to know each other. They shared no more than a chaste kids on the cheek.
This book dealt with concepts of defying social norms, racism, natural healing, medicine, and ladies of the evening. All in all it was a consistently paced book with some action and a great deal of how life was lived in a small old West town.
Jacob and Rosa do get their HEA, with a little twist toward the end. I would give this 3.5 stars.
I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book received from the author.
Great storyline and character development made this book a hot and enjoyable read! I could not put it down it was that good!

It was good to return to Bear Creek. Amelia Rose picks up soon after The Rescued Bride’s Savior ends. Sheriff Jacob Benning has seen how happy his former boss is with his bride and sends a letter seeking his own mail-order bride. The timing is perfect for lady’s maid, Rose, who suddenly needs to find a new job and place to live. She arrives in Bear Creek suddenly and at a time when Sheriff Jacob needs extra assistance. I love reading how these marriages between virtual strangers work out. Amelia Rose brings together two independent souls who really do need each other. This was a fun read and I really enjoyed it.
I really liked Jacob, the sheriff, in the previous book, so I was excited that he was getting a book. Rosa is a sweet match for Jacob. They are both honest and kind. I enjoyed watching them get to know one another.
A FAITHFUL BRIDE FOR A WOUNDED SHERIFF

Beat Creek a place where people helped and supported one another.
Jacob awaiting for response to his MOB requests. The letters were not of the applicant , but of his duties as sheriff. Instead of eager to know him as a person. When he was on the job, he never knew what was around the corner.
Riding out to check on the mines, was a mother bear and new cubs. The horse reared up with the sound of the bear’s roar, throwing Jacob off. His right arm is in a cast can he continue as sheriff, if he can’t shoot.
Rosa was brought from the orphanage to tend to a young girl Kathlyn. Both young, they grew up together as friends which displeased the mother.
Of marriage age now, for Rose, they were none for her statue , which Kaylyn mention being a MOB bride then. A generous offer from Katlyn and a adventure, could she love a man through letters and go west, Finding love and a home of her own, is a delightful story readers will enjoy.
