I am a big fan of westerns and romance. When you combine those, I’m a giggly, giddy girl. I love Western, Christian Romance novels. Blue Moon Promise was a great book to read. Lucy (I love that name!) and her siblings ran out of money and safety after their father passed away. When danger began lurking around their home, a stranger made her an offer she couldn’t refuse!
Lucy accepted a proxy marriage and stunned her new husband with her, and her siblings, arrival. Nate, like any unsuspecting new groom didn’t know what to do. But, after he realized the danger had followed Lucy, he realized he had to protect her. Afterall, he is an upstanding, Christian man… with a new wife!
I’m not going to spoil the story and tell you if they ended up falling love or if their marriage made it or not. But I will tell you that this was a very nice, well written story. Both Lucy and Nate are Christians and both believe in the sanctity of marriage. They know that you can’t lie to each other so the book is written without a ton of length between secrets being revealed. This is one thing that I REALLY enjoy about this book. It gets right to the point without dragging the plot out to long. But it gives you enough action and story to keep it interesting. These are the types of stories I like to read.
