Books one through three in the Texas Women of Spirit series. Clean Christian fiction set in 1890s Texas.

Book one: The River Girl's Song

Zillia Bright never dreamed she’d be orphaned at 16 and left to care for her baby brother and Papa’s farm. With only a mule and a 100-year-old shotgun, she must fight to protect what's hers. Countless dangers lurk on the Bastrop, Texas, riverside. Zillia must rely on the help of her best friends, Soonie and Wylder, to hold her world together. With Zillia’s struggles come unexpected miracles, and proof that God might just listen to the prayers of a river girl.

Book two: The Comanche Girl's Prayer

It's 1890. Called by God, 19-year-old Soonie Eckhart travels to an illegal Comanche and Kiowa settlement in North Texas to become a teacher for the children in hiding. Despite her Comanche roots, she finds many in the group, including a volatile young man named Lone Warrior, refuse to accept her. After a chance encounter in the hills with a band of dangerous men, Soonie must draw on the deepest parts of her faith and courage to survive.

Book three: The Saloon Girl's Journey

Weary of the saloon girl life - and tired of being slapped around - Darla North decides to start over and let her new-found faith lead her. A friend sends her to Downs House, a place for "unfortunate women". Darla is offered a home - if she can behave herself. Old habits are hard to break, but Darla is desperate to prove to everyone that she's changed, especially Ethan Downs, the owner's sensitive and sweet son. But when Darla's past threatens to catch up with her, she must decide to face the truth...or run away again.

Pure love

A pleasure to listen to each story and I enjoyed the connection between them. I liked hearing about salvation, and it wasn’t crammed down the listener’s throat every few paragraphs. I went to sleep listening, and always backed the story up to hear what I had missed.

Great series!!!!

I loved the three book trilogy "The Texas Woman of Spirit". J Grace did a good job of bringing the books to life.

Life in 1890

Comanche Girl Prayer
The year of 1890 a strong faith to go to Texas to teach children in hiding. She is only nineteen, what an undertaking.
Saloon Girl
Darla tired of the life she was living, goes and now finds herself in a house of women of the night. She is determined and how she makes changes.
A favorite of how her new faith guiding her.
Looking at the hardship of women in the 1890's, they were still almost a child, yet having to make decisions as adult, and the hard changes that would occur. Difficult to read in someways, of how they had to do what was needed to survive
Given audio also. was good for my voluntary review and my honest opinion

A trio of joy

I can’t tell you how much I have enjoyed the stories, they are beautiful refreshing and so full of joy and love. The author and the narrator both have five stars from me and I would recommend these books to one and all in these trying times.

Enjoyable Collection of Sweet Stories!

Collection of three stories by Angela Castillo, all based on Texas in the 1890's. I enjoyed all three stories, the plots were all very unique and kept me listening. I liked that in all the stories the plot centered on the heroine and conflicts happening in her life. She took charge to solve the problem and make her life better. There is a hint of romance, but the romance is not the main focus of the story.
The narration was excellently done and reflected each story well. J, Grace Pennington handled character voices, intonation, accents and even singing with ease.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.
