The Rancher Inherits a Family

GIVEAWAY

ST. JOHN, CHERYL
THE RANCHER INHERITS A FAMILY

Unexpected Father...

The pretty redhead Seth Halloway pulls from a derailed train has surprising news for him. The children she's accompanied to Cowboy Creek aren't heres -- they're his, thanks to the last wishes of a late friend. Busy rancher Seth must suddenly cope with three rambunctious boys...and try to ignore his growing feelings for independent Marigold Brewster.

Marigold hopes to start over as the town's new schoolteacher. She'll choose her own path, and stay aloof from the adorable Radner boys -- and their guardian. But the man who rescued her from a wrecked railcar might ust be the one to save her from loneliness...if she dares to let him in.

My Review:

I can't believe this is my first visit to Cowboy Creek! Clearly I have been missing out on a lot! Love this growing town and the way they draw together to become a community of faith and grace. What a great backdrop for a cowboy romance...speaking of which...Seth Halloway! If you made a list of all the swoonworthy characteristics we all love in a Western wrangler you could put his name in as the definition. Including being endearingly awkward in the wooing department. And intensely stubborn when it comes to sharing his feelings...or even acknowledging them.

Mind you, Marigold isn't much better. Still reeling from a series of losses, she's determined to make a life for herself on her own -- pouring her love into her young scholars instead of seeking romance and a family of her own. But that's before three little rapscallions get under her skin and their quietly steadfast guardian opens his home....and heart.

A heartwarming love story that celebrates the miracle that comes from creating a new family out of unspeakable loss and heartache.

The Wedding Journey

GIVEAWAY!

ST. JOHN, CHERYL
THE WEDDING JOURNEY

The mysterious inheritance is the answer to a prayer. Now Irish lass Maeve Murphy and her sisters can come to America! She's sure happiness awaits her, even if it won't—can't—come from widowed ship doctor Flynn Gallagher. Yes, he made her his assistant, but she's not foolish enough to fall for the man all the eligible, wealthy female passengers admire.

Flynn Gallagher may have his pick of ladies, but only one cares as he does for the sick and poor. Flynn vowed never to marry another woman who could break his heart. With Maeve, has his heart found safe harbor at last?

My Review:

Imagine my delight when I uncovered this one at the bottom of a delivery box destined for the recycle bin! Yeeesssss! My TBR pile wasn't bare after all. I had one more book left and what a dream it was! First -- I love all things Irish and this series is entitled the Irish Brides. My heart was in a swoon before I even opened the book and it continued to pit-a-pat right through to the end because the romance is divine! In fact the whole story is a wonderful blend of grit and grace. St. John has created a fascinating community aboard the ship bound for the states. In fact, most of the story takes place on board and is full of interesting historical details about what it must have been like to travel across the Atlantic Ocean on a quest for a better life in the mid 1800s.  Honestly, this book is a gem worthy of  the crown jewels of Ireland! Cue Celtic music, sit back and enjoy this iontach book!(psst...that's Irish for wonderful.)
