No One's Bride takes the traditional mail order bride romance and asks an intriguing "what if" question. From the first page, I was hooked. You know that kind of book that makes you want to put everything on hold so you can just keep finding out what happens next? This novel delivers that kind of reading experience. Even when I put it down, I'd wonder about the characters and what would happen.This novel made me happy for so many reasons:The characters are memorable and their steadfast faith in God is inspiring.The sense of setting was lovely: I felt as though I could see the beautiful Wild West land all around me.The plot moves forward at a swift pace, but doesn't feel rushed.There are horses! I love horses.The blossoming romance between the two main characters is so sweet, tender, and believable. This is a perfect read for those who enjoy a clean and wholesome romance.Now all I want to know is when will the next book in this series be published?

It is hard to believe someone from the UK got this so right. I loved every sentence off the book. The arrangements would never have gone over well but that made it more fun. I just found a new author that had my attention. This is CLEAN, sweet and Godly, everything I love in a book. Thank you.

No One’s Bride ( The Escape to West Series-Book 1 )By: Nerys LeighNo One’s Bride is book one in The Escape to West Series by Nerys Leigh.Wow, what a mail order bride story. I have read lots of mail order bride novellas , but not a full length story before. This was my first to read by Nerys Leigh, and hopefully it want be my last. I loved the story and the characters, both were well written and easy to follow. Amy reads an ad in the paper for a mail order bride, she decides it is time to get out of New York, but she does not intend to marry any man. Adam lives in Green Hill, a small town in California. He is the town’s Postmaster and everyone likes him. He is expecting his mail order bride to be on the train with the other mail order brides to be. Are these two suited for each other? Will Amy marry Adam? Amy’s past makes her afraid and Adam has problems saying what he really wants. I loved the good, clean, Christian romance of this book .I was given a copy of this book by the author for my honest review.

The great: There are so many things great about this novel! In a reading world where so much writing is at best mediocre, it is refreshing to find a book that I enjoyed not only the storyline but also the author’s writing. I as was smitten with these characters from very early on as I was engaged in their story. I was connected, I was proud for their wins, and I was sad for their losses. There is a strong current of Christian worldview and lessons learned without having an overly preachy feel.The so-so: There was tone change toward the end that caught me off guard and, I don’t think, moved the story along, but maybe I’d had a change of mood, I’m not sure.The not so greats: The hero might be a bit timid for those who like the alpha male types, but he is strong in character and in no way run roughshod by anyone. There is a mild curse word and some partial curses, so if that bothers you, be aware. There is also some flirtation between a man and a married (soon-to-be-filing-for-divorce) woman.I was given a copy of this book by the author for my honest review.

Orphan Amy Watts lies when she agrees to become a mail order bride. She has no intention of marrying Adam Emerson, the bank and post office clerk from a tiny town in Northern California. She only knows she wants to go to San Francisco—as far away as possible from her rich, influential and lecherous New York employer.Adam has prayed for God to bring him a wife, and he is overjoyed at his first sight of Amy—she is beautiful. He’s also pleased to find out she’s a likeable person—until she confesses that she doesn’t want to marry him. But she’s going to do the honourable thing and stay in town long enough to pay him back the money he spent in bringing her here.While Amy was a great character and I fully understood her motive for her inappropriate behaviour, it was Adam who caught my attention. He’s the perfect gentleman, the perfect romance hero (if he has a fault, it is perhaps that he has no faults. Hey, it’s 1870 and the guy can cook and do laundry!).I very much liked the Christian content—Adam and Amy each had a strong Christian faith, and this showed consistently throughout the book. I thought the writing was strong, especially for a debut author, and I especially liked the humour sprinkled throughout.Amy was one of five mail order brides delivered to the tiny town of Green Hill Creek, and I think the remaining novels in the Escape to the West series will be the stories of the other four women. Overall, No One’s Bride is an excellent debut novel, and I’m now looking forward to the next book in the series—Sara’s story. And waiting for Jo’s story because of what wasn’t said …Recommended for fans of Christian historical romance from authors such as Mary Connealy, Karen Witemeyer, Regina Jennings, Carol Cox, Jen Turano and Lucy Thompson.Thanks to the author for providing a free ebook for review.
