A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here

A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!

A Bride at Last (Unexpected Brides #3) - Melissa Jagears

This is the third book in the series.  The series starts off with a novella called Love by the Letter, then follows up with the first two books, A Bride for Keeps and A Bride in Store.

Kate’s been taking care of a young man and his mother for some time.  When the mother dies, she meets a man who she’s heard a great deal about.  Unfortunately, none of it was good.  When the boy’s alleged father shows up, the newcomer looks to be a better choice for the boy, but Kate is determined to do what it takes to make sure the boy doesn’t have to go back to his life of crime.

Silas is shocked to learn he has a son, but with another man claiming that role, he works with Kate to find evidence that the boy is actually his.  And when the boy runs away, they end up spending even more time together.  Even though he’s drawn to Kate, everyone in his life has abandoned him.  With his past, he believes it’s what he deserves.

Spending all that time together is dangerous to Kate’s reputation and there will be consequences.  When their pasts collide, these two have more issues than they could have imagined.  They’re going to have to put aside their pasts and trust God with their future.

This was a pretty good book, just not my favorite of the series.  The story just didn’t flow as well as the others.  While characters from the other books appear in this book, you can read them out of order without feeling lost.  Decent Book!

*I received a copy of this book from Bethany House through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
