Clean Christian Romance on the Oregon Trail

Barbara Goss writes clean christian romances that take place in the 1800's. I enjoyed this sweet story of the Oregon Trail. This story was a fresh perspective and had a sweet love story. I have listened to several books by this author and enjoy her style. The narrator (Jan Ross) was new to me, but I just didn't connect with her voice expressions and delivery for this book. Some of the voices the narrator performed were very well done, while others were grating. My review is not a synopsis of the book, but rather my opinion of it. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Yes. I read it straight though because it was so good and I wanted to see how it ended. If I read it again, I'd slow down and enjoy the 'trip'.

Delightful and Romantic

It's hard to say who captured whose heart but in the end it doesn't really matter. This is one of Ms. Goss' best that I've listened to so far. It was one I could not put down. There was inspiration as Amanda learned to trust God once again after she thought He had deserted her and Luke gently prodded her back. It showed how people sometimes get priorities all wrong and how sometimes circumstances and love can open their eyes. This was such a good book--highly recommend it.

The narration was wonderful!

This was a fun story to listen to. There was a new approach to the romance of a mail order bride which was refreshing. It had enough adventure to keep the story from moving too slow and a mystery that was not solved until near the end, but with just enough clues to keep the reader from figuring out too soon what had happened. This was a delightful listen.

The narration was great!
