Faith - Brides of the West Series by Lori Copeland
In the BRIDES OF THE WEST SERIES we learn that sisters Faith, Hope, & June have decided to become mail order brides. Faith is off to Texas to wed Nicholas Shepherd. When she gets there, she is met by a man of little words, and a mother-in-law that has nothing positive to say about Faith. When their wedding date is postponed on four different occasions, Faith begins to wonder if God brought her to Deliverance, Texas for reasons other than marriage. She soon gets attached to the children of a widower and has fancy ideas of opening a school for the blind. Nicholas is in a state of confusion. He doesn’t like Faith’s forward ways, and with his mom continually telling him why Faith is all wrong for him, he begins to wonder if his marriage is doomed before it even transpires.
I enjoyed FAITH, though at times, I thought the pace was slow. I like the character of Faith because she was an idealist and didn’t let social graces get in the way of what she wanted to do. Nicholas was a little passive for me. I prefer a man who is a take charge kind of guy. But overall, the book was enjoyable and I will be reading HOPE next.♥
