Christian Historical Romance
While the beginning and the ruse was hard to bear, by the time her secret is out, it only gets... harder? She's lost her best friend and is afraid of being all alone in this world, but he finally comes to grips with his feelings for her after she turns her life over! A magical ending, whoops, that's not what happens next, either! I guess you'll just have to read it for yourself!
I enjoyed the narration, but there were a few times I couldn't distinguish who was talking by the voice alone.

Narration was lively, however…
The story just seemed to go on too long. Hero was a preachy, condescending know-it-all who held zero appeal. I liked him Less as the story went along and could not understand the attraction the heroine professed to have for him. Despite that, the writing was actually good and provided a few laugh out loud moments. So it’s basically a 3 star read for me.

Disappointed
Started off funny and wholesome. Became very churchy in a judgment sort of way. Would have you believe Sidney was an atheist and simpleton when it came to God and religion but the opinionated judge mental cowboy could turn her around. Please!

Author has religious agenda
Any additional comments?
As a secularist, I would have appreciated someone describing the book containing long passages about the value of knowing Jesus and discussing bible quotations. I'm sure this is great for some readers, but it's not for everyone.
