Another winner! This series is beautiful. This book, we have Camille, an opera singer who finds herself out of work and writes to Harry. Little does she know, he did not place the ad for a mail order bride. Even though he is not ready for marriage, they start a correspondence. Harry is so sweet, I love his demeanor and his honesty of where he is at in his life. There is some time that passes, but as they continue to write letters, they find their common ground. I love the way Karla integrates the letters into her stories, it gives such insight to the characters. We also get a glimpse of Byron and Amelia from book one in this story, such pranksters!
Alan Taylor is the narrator, his voice is soothing and wonderful.
--I was given a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
A sweet clean western historical fiction featuring mail order bride Camille and new Montana rancher Harry. This is a very enjoyable short listen that allows one to escape to a time and place far away from our modern lives.
The narration was well done.The characters were well portrayed. Alan Taylor brings the story to life with voices that fit quite well.
"I was voluntarily provided this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator."
The stories of mail order brides is a great chapter in the history of the west. The star of a small local troupe reads an advertisement from a rancher in Wyoming. She starts in a new show which ends in Billings, Montana where she meets her writer, her future husband. A sweet story for lovers of the west.
Another short, sweet and to the point story that is entertaining. It isn’t the best work by this author but it does hold your attention. There are questions that are left unanswered that I really wanted to know.
Mr, Taylor narration was outstanding, there are no word repeats or any place where the volume changes. His different voices were wonderful from his tones to his pitch. You had no trouble knowing who was talking or what they were feeling. He male voice are just as nice as his female ones. There is no background noise just a very clear audio. If any breaks were taken I could not tell. I thought the narrator has a very smooth voice you have no trouble listening to for hours. He character voices are very pleasant. A very enjoyable listen that held my attention.
This story moved very fast and takes place over long months why Harry gets his farm setup. They take the time to get to know each other and fall in love over letters along with the first time their eyes touch. Harry spends time working out who she is and if he is the right man for her. There are some issues over who Camille father is, there is one man who knows but does not say. I thought this book moved way to fast and left out some key things. All in all it was not a bad read and I did enjoy it.
