When All My Dreams Come True



MOWERY, JANELLE

WHEN ALL MY DREAMS COME TRUE



An adventurous tale of faith, hope and love in the wild west.



Bobbie McIntyre dreams of running a ranch of her own. Raised without a mother and having spent most of her time around men, she knows more about wrangling than acting like a lady. Still, the friendship of her new employer awakens a desire to learn more about presenting her feminine side...but ranch life keeps getting in the way.



Ranch owner, Jace Kincaid figures the Lord is testing his faith when a female wrangler shows up looking for work. Bobbie has an uncanny way of getting under his skin, though, and he's surprised when she finds a home next to his heart. But when his cattle begin to go missing and his wranglers are in danger from some low-down cattle thief, will Jace trust God, even if it means giving up his dreams?



My Review:



If you're in the mood for a rollicking Western full of dastardly villains, heart-palpitating heroes and sassy heroines then look no further. This book is for you. I felt like I'd time-warped onto the Bonanza set and loved every minute of it!



Mowery starts at a breakneck speed and keeps her readers gasping for breath right to the very last page. Just when you think Jace and Bobbie are going to get a reprieve the action hitches up another notch. The last third of the book is a real page-turner.



Bobbie is spunky and funny and endearingly lost. Jace is solid and comforting and ooohhhhhh so protective. They clash. Then clash some more and then...magic happens. Sigh.



This is a captivating escape read with a solid inspirational message -- the perfect blend for success.

  3. Hey Amber -- nothing like those old Bonanza reruns is there?

    Anne Lee -- I try to read the best books. At least they are the only ones I review here. And I take public transit. Gives me plenty of time to read during my commute. :-)

    Good luck you two!

    And I agree with you Anne! She goes through a lot of books:) I like to read as well but often I only get through 2-3 books a week.
