Guthrie, Oklahoma, 1912. Priscilla Cochran intends to prove to the world she is a grown-up woman, able to take care of herself. She accepts a job as a teacher in Dogtown, Colorado, where the man who hired her thinks she is a woman of "mature years".

Mitch Beaumont is tired of young women who come to Dogtown and leave in tears because it is not a built-up city with entertainment a young woman would want. He has finally secured a teacher for the town who has assured him she is a middle-aged spinster and will be able to last through the hard winters.

Then 20-year-old Priscilla steps off the mail coach and falls at his feet in the mud.

Great Historical Romance!

When Mitch places an ad for a mature woman to teach in his small town of Dogtown, Colorado, he's expecting a comfortable middle aged woman to arrive. When 20 year old Priscilla steps off the mail coach instead, he orders her to turn right around and go back where she came from. But Priscilla is determined to make a difference for the children in the town, and won't let an overbearing man boss her around. As Mitch and Priscilla are thrown together more and more, they start to revise their first impressions of each other.

I really enjoyed this sweet romance! It's part of a series, but is written as a standalone book. It has a few slightly steamy scenes and a curse word or two. I really loved the small town setting, and the main characters were great. Both Priscilla and Mitch have to deal with their prejudice about the way they view each other and the way they view themselves. Mitch thinks Priscilla, a senator's daughter, is too good for him, and Priscilla thinks her only worth is as a teacher. They need to get to know themselves and each other better before they can have their happily ever after.

The narration was well done, the narrator had to perform accents and some sentences in French and did a great job on both. I requested a copy of the audiobook, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.

A Dogtown Christmas

I found A Dogtown Christmas to be a nice stand-alone historical romance. Priscilla is a strong female character, which I liked. There were a few things about Mitch’s personality that I didn’t care for, but by the end, his good characteristics outweighed the not so good.

All in all, I enjoyed the story and performance.

simple endearing story

not much substance to the book, what you see is sort of what you get. Priscilla our main character is set on making it on her own and sets off on an adventure to reach her goal to become teacher.

Fun Listen

A Dogtown Christmas: An Oklahoma Lovers Book
: Callie Hutton

This is book 6 in the An Oklahoma Lovers Book series. I read the first book in the series and enjoyed it. Unfortunately I missed out on 2,3,4,and 5. I was lucky to get a hold of this book.

Priscilla wants to strike out own her own in far off Dogtown, CO away from her family in Oklahoma. She is hired to be a school teacher in a town that is just beginning to grow. Mitch Beaumont thinks he has hired a "mature" woman that will stick around. The fun starts as soon as she arrives in Dogtown. From there the preconceived ideas and stubborn personalities make for an interesting story, and some romance too! A fun short listen.



The narration was well done. The characters were well portrayed by Eliza Anders.

Short and Sweet

Being from Oklahoma, I had to give this audiobook a go. I am glad I did. I truly enjoyed the story and the transition to Colorado that is different from Oklahoma winters. It was a nice slice of home and home cooking. Wrapping up in a blanket and listening to this on a cold night with a mug of something would be just the thing. The narration was well done and I enjoyed her different voices. She was easy to understand. My only complaint is (and this might have just happened in editing) the scene transitions and chapter breaks need more space between them. It switched so fast sometimes it was jarring to realize you are now in a different scene. I would add more space in the future. Just a couple of seconds. All in all, I enjoyed this audiobook. This author and narrator are new to me and I am pleased at how much I enjoyed them. The lead characters were easy to relate to. =)
