Publisher's summary
At the young age of ten, her uncle dropped her off at the Little Sisters Convent with the promise that as soon as he got settled, he would send for her. After ten years, he finally kept his promise, sending her money to travel to Livingston, Texas, to live with him. Once Anna arrived, dressed in Nun’s clothing, she was greeted by the handsome, Matt Jenkins, sheriff of the town.
Matt Jenkins, a young handsome man had been the lawman of Livingston for several years after an unhappy retreat from his parents’ farm in Portland, Texas. After greeting the lovely nun from Whitmire, Texas, he had the unfortunate duty of telling her that her missing uncle was a wanted man, but he would be glad to take her to her uncle’s little house at the edge of town.
When Anna removed her wimple, slowly shaking her head back and forth to let her long raven hair fall below her waist, Sheriff Jenkins was spellbound by the nun’s beauty. He always thought that nuns were bald under their headpieces. His knees went weak, and his heart nearly beat out of his chest. In a moment, he fell head over heels for this lovely little lady.
Would more bad news about her Uncle Claude Moore keep this young couple apart? Sheriff Jenkins was determined not to let that happen.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

Story
It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

Who am I? Where am I? What’s happened here?” These were questions going through the lovely, red-haired beauty stretched out on the sandy, dirt trail. With bright sunlight in her eyes, she tried to focus on her surroundings. She had to get up, but everything in sight was fuzzy. She felt her head and discovered a bloody gash on the back of her skull. Crawling to an overturned covered wagon, she managed to stand. On the ground lay two corpses. Who were those people?” Lightning flashed and loud thunder meant a storm was brewing. “Oh, Lord, please protect me.” She had to find someplace...

Joy Carlstrom had just received an answer to her prayer, a miracle in the form of a young cowboy. The western sun beat down on Joy Carlstrom’s young body as she lay sprawled across a pile of dirt that would be her pa’s resting place. With no one to help, she cried out to God. With only a rusty shovel, she needed help to bury her pa. She prayed for a miracle. When the uneven clip-clop of a horse’s hooves sounded behind her, Joy sprang to her feet. A young man stood nearby staring at her. With a tear-streaked face, she waved the rusty shovel like a weapon while demanding, “Who are you...

Sweet western romance
Definitely worth the listen! I love westerns and chose this because it was listed under Christian romances.
The action was good, well timed and though somewhat predictable, it held my attention - never boring.
Anna and her friends from the orphanage/ convent are the kind of family you hope for though they aren't related. They love and take care of each other and those around them. The town her uncle calls her home to is also wonderful.
Overall, the sheriff is the kind of man you want as a sheriff and love interest. One of my two complaints about the book is when he spanks her for disobedience - sorry but physical discipline of a spouse is a no go for me. He comes around and later tells one of the boys that you never hit a woman but he never apologized to her and it just didn't fit the character and it was unnecessary.
The second complaint was the digital narration. It does a pretty good job with intonation so for the most part it sounds like a person narrating, but the timing of sentences gets off especially in the second half of the book so that sentences run into each other or pauses too long. Also, it mispronounces several words like raven (long A sound) is pronounced with short A sound. Since she has raven-black hair that he really likes, it gets annoying.
Very cute story overall with a good message and I loved the ending!
