A Light in the Wilderness by Jane Kirkpatrick

This was an interesting tale of three women and their journeys west.  I took me a little to get settled into this book, but once I did , I quite enjoyed it.  I liked the courage that the women in this book showed not only in their travels, but in their personal lives as well.  I don't know that I could have stepped out on faith as they did to not only leave what they knew, but to go against the normal as well.  I learned some of what it was like on the trail especially for those who weren't exactly accepted as well as the rest.

Love's Fortune by Laura Frantz

I like how the main character Wren is not afraid to be herself and make the best of her new situation.  She has been raised  by her father in a manner that does not show the money that her family  actually  has, but soon finds herself in a new situation that is not what she is accustomed to. Wren finds herself leaving her country home in Kentucky and having to learn how to fit into her grandparent's home.  She does the best to learn how to act and dress, but deep down she is still who she is beneath all the finery.  She does what she has to for her family, but still remains loyal to her roots.  Wren is a fascinating character an made the book worth reading.  I received this book free from the publisher to review.

Saved by a matchmaker by Jody Hedlund

 I really enjoyed reading this book.  Enya's father wants her married to a suitable person and decides a matchmaker is just the person to make it happen.  Sullivan needs to marry to meet his father's demands and decides that Enya will make a suitable match.  The book progresses as they come to know each other and really have to learn to lean on each other even in the had times.  A really good historical read and romance.  Look forward to more.
