Search - A Bride for Donnigan (Women of the West Series)

Janette Oke always writes in such captivating and beautiful ways, drawing the reader to be in the actual story. Great read!

Wonderful, refreshing to the reader who wants a good inocent book.

Another book that I actually read more than once. I absolutely love it.

This is a cute book. It was a swift and easy read, fairly well written.

A Bride for Donnigan wasn't what I expected. Kathleen leaves her homeland hoping for a better life as a bride to an unknown man. Donnigan Harrison can't believe his fellow town's men are seeking "mail order" brides. Once given though he's open to the idea since he's tired of talking to himself and his horse. With the desire to become more of a Christian and eager to learn more Donnigan learns the town's church as closed. He begins to read the bible and tries to teach himself (and others) what Christianity is all about. An unlikely source is actually the key to his short-comings. In my opinion this is an overall good book. I did feel like the book ended kind of quickly though I do like the author (first time I've read any of her books) and have since ordered all of the Women of the West Series (their are now 12 of them). All in all a good buck and you won't be disappointed with this love story!

This is the first Janette Oke book I have read, I really enjoyed it. I've heard of mail order brides but did not realize what would motivate young girls to do this. This book makes a lot of sense to me of why the girl would make such a bold move. I would recommend this book who enjoy a good clean love story.-Teresa
