Brides of Hope Mountain Her Secret Song, Book 3, (Paperback)

Ursula Nordegren is a woman who can stand on her own. Cabin fever begins to gnaw inside, so she begins to seek comfort in the small town of Bucksnort down from her mountain home. On the way down the mountain trail, Ursula meets a stumbling block in the way of her brave trek, Wax Mosby. Wax carries his own secrets and wouldn't like them spilled. What ensues is a rollicking reading ride in the pages of this third novel in the Brides of Hope Mountain series. It can be read as a stand-alone, but treat yourself. Find that hidden bit of chocolate in the pantry, we all have those, the ones the kids or hubby can't partake in and read this book. Then, read the other stories about her younger sisters, Ilsa and Jo. They are full of love and adventure as well. I received this book from the publisher and Netgalley but was under no obligation to write nor post a review.

Ursula, who was raised by her grandparents isolated in the mountains, has come face to face with a battered and bruised man, Wax, who needs her help to survive. Tired of her hermit ways, she decides to nurse him back to health. Just as Wax improves, her two sisters with their husbands show up. They insist they must go to the lowlands to protect themselves from killers and thieves--despite being outnumbered and out gunned. Except Ursula has never been off the mountain, and she was told all her life she would die if she left. So begins an exciting yarn set in the 1870's. There will be the plans of two different bad guys that need to be overcome, hilarious miscommunications and situations between the men and the mountain women, along with an exciting showdown. Different threads from many circumstances end up coming together for an exciting finale. Murder and robbery, along with talk of God's love and angel's songs pepper the pages! This rousing tale will keep you glued to it until the end of the story. This is the third installment in a series, but can be understood by itself. But do yourself a favor, and read the other two for pure enjoyment. I highly recommend this 5-star book to those who like clean, exciting stories with a dash of humor and romance. Bethany House Publishers, through NetGalley, has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, Her Secret Song, for the purpose of review.
