Such a wonderful collection... It is so nice to have a refreshing, clean romance that can still sweep you off your feet! I enjoyed reading each story and have already told my Mom and friends about it so on publication day expect a lot of response! Thank you for the opportunity to read it ahead of time.

This collection of old-fashioned faith and love totally surprised me by the different plot twists and turn like some conventional and unconventional ways of joining the ministry, This does not exclude the means of becoming a parson's wife. and it is no secret that filling this role is no easy role. Each story has its own charm and quirk but my heart was won over by Shirley, Goodness and Mercy (by Kristy Dykes ) as well as A Bride for the Preacher ( Sally Laity). The Preacher's Bride Collection is a sweet, feel-good and uplifting collection that will brighten your weekend.

This was a very nice collection. They were all previously published works, but worked nicely together in this collection. I had read some before, and others were new to me. They were nice, solid novellas. Worth the time to read them.
I received a copy of this book in order to facilitate my review. All opinions are my own.

Not a huge fan of this collection. The titles and covers always draw me in, but I'm afraid I've been disappointed more often than impressed. The characters are rather shallow and manipulating and the stories are lacking some historical authenticity and accuracy. Overall, not terrible, but just not for me.

Yet another beautiful collection! I adored how each story focused on a strong willed woman and how she eventually found love - even in the most unexpected places! The stories made my commute to work feel so much shorter as I had great company.

Barbour Publishing knows how to pull authors together to make an entertaining book of individual novellas that capture the reader's imagination for an hour or two. This is the one book that is easy to put down, after you finish reading the novella you are on.

Each of these stories takes the reader back in time to lives that were simpler except for finding a husband. It seemed to be the most important thing a woman needed to do with her life. Every young bride in this book uses a different method for lassoing her future husband, but they are all successful in their quest. One knits scarves and mittens for the soldiers stationed nearby, one exposes a crook for who he really is, one keeps a preacher from dying of snakebite on the Oregon trail, and there are more stories for reading and enjoying on a cold, rainy day.

This is a five star book, two thumbs up, and a blanket for cuddling up while you read.

My thanks to Barbour Books for allowing me to read and review this book. I keep a book like this in my TBR pile to lighten up after reading a book with a heavy plot.
