My Review:
I really didn’t know what to expect when I read this book was a “Novella collection.” Basically, it is a four short love stories in one book based out of one location, Dry Gulch, Texas.
This book is a simple book that if you have a hard time reading, this could be a simple way to start reading. The stories were fast and a cinch to read.
I like these kind of books, when I am in a doctor’s office and can’t get to engrossed in a book because you never know when you are going to be called back.
The stories themselves were fast love historical stories.
The one I probably enjoyed the most was an Unforseen Match. Being blind and young back in the old west got me thinking about what I would do back then. I’d probably have a huge pity party. That story was one that I would maybe read aloud to my kids to see what they would do if they happen to be in Grace’s circumstance.
The other stories had conflicts as well but that one was my favorite.
Some of the themes are based on harsh realities back in the Old West and might not be suitable for little eyes. Please read ahead before passing along to curious little ones.
Overall, I would recommend this book for a fast fun read.
Blessings to you! You are loved!
