Exciting!

What a great Christian story. Even follows of Christ can get themselves into a mess when they forget to follow his word. This was a real nail biter. I loved it. The narrator did a great job with the characters.

Truth or Lie

Be prepared for a great story, with Daphne’s Determination. Listening to the audiobook and the narrator was wonderful. Daphne is following her Uncle’s direction, as she becomes a mail order bride for August. They are trying to see if he killed his first wife, her cousin. It doesn't take much, to realize this isn't true, but Daphne is determined to find out who did. Will not telling him the truth, make things worse? Only time will tell.
I was given a copy of this audiobook by the author for an honest review.

A beautiful story!

A story of doubt and courage to find the truth. Loved the story and characters.

Christian Historical Romance

This was an intense story! The whole premise of, "marrying a man suspected of murder, so you can find evidence", was not only shocking, but terrifying if you think of you or a loved one being put in that position!! And then to be spoken to by several men as if she was a prostitute they were trying to hire, disgusting! But, I knew this was a Christian story, and I was confident in the author's ability to turn it into a redeeming love story! And boy, did she!
This story is as old as time, in one way. God will arrange things for those that love Him, into a path that will grow their faith, bring them closer to Himself, and give Him glory, and that's exactly what happened!
I was extremely pleased with the narrator, too! I can't even recommend anything that he could improve upon! I loved everything about his narration of this story!

Sweet, Mail-Order Bride Romance with Mystery

A wonderful inspirational romance with wonderful characters and a mystery for the bride to solve. The narrator does a good job bringing the story to life. Highly recommend!

Whodunnit with romance!

Daphne has made the decision to help her uncle. Marrying the widower of her cousin should help to find out if he did indeed murder her. Now there with her maid, Bertie, she is scare but ready to find out what she came for. But what she found was not what she expected. August seemed like a fantastic husband. But was he really? Or could it be the neighbor? From deceit to finding out who was the murderer, I was hooked. There was so much packed into this and I was all there for it. And the best was the continuous thread of faith that brought the story together. I loved it!

Adam Skousen was amazing as he told this story. The many voices he performed were spot on. He built the suspense, and warmed the love. I really enjoyed this narration, he brought the story alive

One of my Favorites From This Author

Another audiobook from one of my favorite authors. Of course I loved the story and the narrator!
It’s really hard to do but if I could just pick one I might pick this one of my favorites. I do love them all so I don’t know.
I absolutely loved this plot with Daphne marrying someone who she thought was a murderer. How in the world would she find out about this man without getting herself killed?
You would hardly think about this book being inspirational but it is.
Did I say I could hardly cut this audiobook off to do adult stuff? I was totally engrossed in this story the whole time.
Don’t miss this one! I highly recommend!
I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook from the author but was not required to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.
