Daisy Creek Brides #13
The Indian Warrior's Deaf Bride
The last thing a bride expects on her wedding day is for her husband-to-be to run off with another woman—especially one pregnant with his child.
Life has never been simple for Jennifer McBee.
As if being shy and deaf wasn’t enough, now Jennifer is faced with the humiliation of her failed wedding.
Devastated and desperate to escape, Jennifer decides to leave heartbreak behind her and travels west to be with her brother, the pastor of a small Nebraska town called Daisy Creek.
Her brother has hopes for her making some new friendships with the townsfolk of Daisy Creek, but even with her hand signing, Jennifer still feels removed from the community of this close-knit town.
But that all changes the day Jennifer joins her brother on his visit to the Lakota Indian camp—here she meets Akecheta, the eldest son of the Lakota chief.
Akecheta is handsome—and only a little intimidating—but when Jennifer discovers the Lakota people also speak through hand signing, she is eager to accept Akecheta’s offer to teach her the language of his tribe.
With Akecheta’s guidance, Jennifer comes to learn about the Lakota people and their fascinating way of life. With every passing day, she feels herself falling deeper in love with the tribe—and their future chief.
With Akecheta and his people around her, Jennifer’s world suddenly seems brighter and full of possibilities—and she dares to hope that maybe she has found a place where she can be accepted at last.
But as talk begins to arise about the chief’s son pairing with an outsider, Jennifer cannot help but wonder: will the Lakota people ever truly welcome her as one of their own?
The Indian Warrior’s Deaf Bride is an uplifting romance where two worlds collide. Will Jennifer and Akecheta find a way to bring their worlds together? Or will their fear of the future be enough to keep them apart?

This is Daisy Creek #13 and I am not getting tired of revisiting this quaint western town. The writer is very clever in how she includes characters from the previous stories while the reader is being introduced to new people in the current book.
I really liked the addition of a disabled character.
Jennifer is deaf. In today's era, we have modern technology to help but back then, it was an unimaginable lonely, silent world. Jennifer uses sign language and lip reading to survive.
Akecheta is from the Lakota tribe that lives adjacent to the town yet whose people are becoming members of the community. I also like how the writer includes this demographic in a historical western. It reflects many of the issues they underwent. It was possible for different cultures to co-exist and it's sad that it took society way too long to realize this.
As in the other books in the series, Akecheta & Jennifer have a friendship that slowly develops into a romance. The twist on the typical mail-order trope is that they communicate through sign language instead of letters. That was awesome!
Jennifer's brother is the preacher from book #2 who also is a beekeeper. I liked the detail of Jennifer not being bothered by the bees b/c she couldn't hear them. Great little detail Amelia!

I decided to read this book based on the blurb. It’s a sweet and clean, easy romance read.

This is #13 in the Daisy Creek Brides series, and I hope they never end! What a great series. The Chief’s son, Akecheta, meets the town minister’s sister, Jennifer, who is deaf. She can read lips well, and also knows sign language. She is a very smart, compassionate, sweet woman. Jennifer has come to Daisy Creek after being engaged in the east, getting to her wedding day, standing at the altar, where the groom comes in late and explains that he has gotten another woman pregnant, and will be going to marry her instead. For any woman, this would be difficult to say the least, however for Jennifer, who feels that most people feel sorry for her and feels that she is not as worthy as a “normal” woman, it is devastating. She is very hurt, and thinks she may never have another chance of a normal life after this. Akecheta is a very caring, compassionate man, who needs Jennifer’s help with a project, which will draw them together as close friends. I hope you will read this book, and all the books in the Daisy Creek Brides series.

Sweet, uplifting story without too much angst. The dialogue seems stilted at times and the language simple, but the author has a wonderful ability to show character integrity and emotions through those plain words. The portrayed wisdom of the Lakota people was inspirational.
“Is there a way you can think of that would help preserve our culture? If you are going to complain to me, you must give me your solution, too,” his mother stated. She placed a lid on a clay pot before pulling the hot coals over it to start cooking the contents.
As per their customs, the elderly of the tribe were housed in the heart of the camp, protected by the rest of the teepees. Different members of the tribe would take turns tending to them, feeding and clothing them. When they were sick, if they did not have any immediate family members left, another family would come stay in their teepee so they could be nursed back to health. Most importantly, the elders were kept company so that they never felt lonely or that they weren’t of worth.

Enjoyed the Story and the Narrator
This is a clean story about a Lakota man and white, deaf woman who fall in love. Akecheta’s people are at peace with the nearby town. Jennifer is a deaf woman who has had her heart broken by a man she trusted. She goes to live with her brother who lives several miles out west. Jennifer’s brother is a pastor and a good man who is one of the main reasons the Lakota people and white people are friendly with each other. The story includes some danger and some misunderstanding, but there is a happy ending, which, in my opinion, is the best kind of story.

I Enjoyed This!
Another delightful story and this time it is about the blossoming romance between a hard of hearing young girl, Jennifer and the future Chief of the Lakota Indian tribe, Akecheta.
I loved the actual proposal. Absolutely heart melting. Of course the rest of the story was really good too and it held my attention all the way through.
Once again, family closeness is brought the fore and there it remains throughout this romantic tale.
I read an Advance Reader Copy (ARC) of this book and my review is voluntary and unbiased.

New addition to Daisy Creek Series, but don't worry if you haven't read the other books, each one has a story of its own, but if you enjoy a good clean historic western, this entire series is for you. This hard of hearing young woman moves away from the town she grew up in after being stood up at the alter and joins her brother out West. All the characters are great, well except for the man that stood her up. There is never a dull spot in the book, it flows beautifully. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did.
I was given this book as an ARC member for my honest review.

Another wonderful story about the brides in Daisy Creek. The characters were so very heartwarming and the storyline was entertaining and heartfelt. A young woman is jilted on her wedding day and finds herself the object of pity, especially since she is deaf. While visiting her brother she learns that she can communicate with the members of the Lakota tribe and is accepted despite her hearing loss.
October 17, 2021
This story is very well written, and sign language is easy to learn, especially when you are deaf and it is an important method of communication for the deaf. I'm not sure about all the white people in town approving of her marriage to the Lakota, but for someone in her condition in this time period; a culture that has sign language as part of their language is perfect Jennifer. As for mixing the cultures, that has been going on as long as races have been mixing.
January 24, 2022
This romance had me hooked from page one to the end. The blending of Indian and white culture plus the added difficulty of dealing with a hearing-impaired heroine made for a fascinating, although highly improbable tale. Well, isn't that what makes a good book? Pushing the limits of what might be possible? This reviewer found the romance between the Lakota Indian chief's son and the deaf young white woman just the ticket.

The Indian Warrior's Hard of Hearing Bride from Amelia Rose is a fantastic historical clean romance based on Christian principles. It is a touching, heartwarming story of how a deaf young woman finds forever home in an Indian tribe where she is finally accepted for who she is and can communicate with everyone.

Lucky #13. Thirteen in the series. LOVED IT. The characters in this story were so well thought out. I thought this story was perfect for the characters. Everything in this book was well thought out.
Stop reading now...
Spoiler ahead...
It would be amazing if this author would write as Akecheta and publish his book.

great inspiring book
I love the books about Indian families. Indians need to be treated as everyone else. They are honest, loving and fair. If Indians had been treated with honesty, love and respect, we would have all lived together instead of the white man stealing their lands and making horrible slurs at them write more Indian stories

I really love books about Native Americans. This one is a very peaceful read that you don’t want to start reading before bed because you won’t be able to sleep until it’s finished. There is some parts that seem unrealistic but it made for a great read. I felt as though I was right there with the characters. I would highly recommended it!!

sweet book
I enjoyed reading this book and so much about the Lavota Indians. It was interesting to learn that the sign language was similar and Jennifer caught on quickly, thanks for writing about deaf people. Great book.

It is always good to visit Daisy Creek. Amelia Rose has given us a community that we have learned to love and care about. I enjoy the interaction between the town people and the local Lakota tribe. I found this story to be heart warming and encouraging. I loved this one.

This is the second book I’ve listened to by this author and I’ve enjoyed both. This is a clean romance and I loved that included Native Americans and how positive the Inter racial union was portrayed. Very interesting, sweet and excellent narration as well. Recommended.

Amazing Storyline
I loved this story. More stories should be told where it tells and explain how not all Native Americans were violent, their family unity. How they tried to live peacefully with other races.
