This is a
heartwarming Christian western romance.
Clayton Proffitt
is foreman of the Circle Z Ranch. When he discovers that Vanessa Grant,
daughter of the ranch’s owner, is the victim of her stepfather’s advances he knows
he must protect her honor and move her far away from the ranch. They find that
an unexpected, deep bond develops between them as they make their way west.
Clayton’s biggest concern as they travel is that Vanessa’s stepfather won’t let
her go so easily. They have to place their faith in both God and each other as
they try to get away from his control.
I loved this
book. The characters were very well developed. From the very start of the story
Vanessa’s plight broke my heart. I was rooting for them to get away from her
stepfather and any control he had over both of them. I loved the fact that
Clayton was relying on God for His direction and protection throughout the
book. He did everything he could to help point others to look to God also.
I’m giving this
book 5 stars and looking forward to reading everything else that I can find by
this author. I highly recommend this book.
