Publisher Description:
Leah Townsend, a recently orphaned heiress, flees Richmond after discovering her fiancé’s plot to kill her after their wedding. She needs a safe place to hide, and finds herself accepting a newspaper marriage proposal from a God-fearing young rancher in the Montana Territory. But when Leah arrives at the mountain ranch, she learns her intended husband was killed by a grizzly, leaving behind a bitter older brother and a spunky younger sister.
When Gideon Bryant finds an eastern lady standing in his log cabin, his first thought is to send her back where she came from. He’s lost too many people to the wild elements of these mountains––his parents, his wife, and now his brother. His love for this untamed land lives on, but he’s determined not to open his heart to another person.
But when an accident forces Leah to stay at the ranch for seven more months, can Gideon protect his heart from a love he doesn’t want? Has Leah really escaped the men who seek her life?

My Review:
In this review, I’m assuming that you’ve read the book description. I don’t want to give away the twists and turns in this story and ruin the the anticipation of what’s coming next for you.
I always enjoy Misty Beller’s books, and this one has a storyline that is filled with adventure, suspense, and romance. I admired the character of Leah, the main character in this book. No matter the situation she found herself facing, she faced it with determination and faith that God was present and able to help. Her faith was her source of strength. There’s some heart-touching moments in this book, and I was hoping that Leah would finally find her true home and a sense of safety and peace. This is a sweet, clean, well-written Christian romance with enough suspense to keep the reader turning pages to find out what happens next in Leah’s story.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
