The characters were very realistic . I felt I could recognize them if I was living in that town. I could not wait to read the sequel to pick up where the fist one ended! I’m on the third book in this series and will read them all. I loved the “old West” setting!

Just when you think the book is winding down, something else happens to keep it interesting. Page turner!

It was interesting how the author weaved faith into the story and kept you guessing as to the outcome. A good quick read.
Wonderful book. The characters came alive and the fact that the lead male shared his faith throughout the book was awesome! I loved the western theme, the danger that lurked close by, and the love story that slowly came about. I highly recommend this novel!
Thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters were well developed and all interactions kept the story not only interesting and captivating, but also kept it moving. I had no problem with the amount and depth of the faith and scripture included as it gave great depth to both the story, the characters, and the faith they needed to survive that era in …

Great storyline and well written. The book holds your interest and doesn’t drag. The characters are full bodied and believable. Loved the book.

Storyline was inspirational and unpredictable.All the characters were realistic and acted as real people do. I enjoyed the twist of the plot. I will be looking for more from …
I really enjoyed reading this book. The twists to the story were unique and the virtue of patience came to light for me. God’s grace and love were also woven into this story.
It’s hard to write a Christian romance without following a formula, and there seems to be a limited number of formulas for romance stories in general. That being said, Bonner is an excellent storyteller, and reading her books is an immersive experience. This story is well thought out and crafted, with very likable characters that tug at your …
Bonner is a fabulous writer. Everything she creates is so real. This was the first book I read by her and it hooked me for good!
