Made me ugly cry and laugh!

I first want to say I am a pastors wife. This story hit home!! Then characters are great and of course the love story is adorable! I laughed with these characters and I cried! This book reminded me the blessing of being a pastors wife and what it really take to be one! Will listen to again!!!!!!

Warm and engaging love story!

Loved it! Good christian romance with a bit of suspense... and about family and friends! To the narrator...... good job!!

Fun, Sweet Historical romance

This was a delightful tale of a mail order bride mix-up that turned out to be exactly as it should have. I loved Hattie and Pastor Joshua. Their integrity and growing love was so fun to watch. I enjoyed how they looked to God to help solve their dilemmas. The narrator did an excellent job of giving each character their unique voice in the story. The story ends with a couple of secondary characters in need of their own story. I look forward to reading or listening to more from this author.

The Pastor's Replacement Bride

Good, Clean read. I enjoyed this book very much. Hattie and Joshua (and Rose Anne) BE HAPPY!!!

The Pastor”s Replacement Bride

Just too innocent. I just got tired of the main character repeating things over and over. I have read other Christian books and this one felt that she was too preachy.
