Summary

Elaina Andrews witnesses a bank robbery and recognizes one of the bandits, and struggles with fear and stress from his threats. Her best friend, Sarah, gives her a train ticket so she can take her place as the mail order bride of Peter Mullins, constable of Hunter's Grove.

Pete turns out to be a fine gentleman and he marries her and brings her to his farmhouse. Every domestic duty Elaina performs turns into a disaster. She doesn't like the house or the chores he'd burdened her with. She wonders if she should have the unconsummated marriage annulled even though there is a definite physical attraction between them. A rich man, Brock, steps into the picture. Is he her escape route, or will she find a way to reconcile with Pete?

A Christian Story

Barbara Goss has written a love story steeped heavily in Christian morals and values. She has tried to include a little bit of suspense as well (Elaine witnesses a bank robbery and has to go on the run). But the main emphasis is on Christian values. A lot of the book focuses on the consummation of Elaine and Pete's marriage, the Church and faith, valuing people over property, faith and trust in God's plan and so forth.

To be honest, it wasn't my cup of tea but for the right person this book works well. It is a sweet, gentle and clean historical Christian romance with just a suggestion of suspense.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
