If the Boot Fits

Texas Ever After, Book 2

By: Karen Witemeyer

Narrated by: Barbara McCulloh

One fateful night will change their destinies forever. …

Convinced that his stepmother and half brothers have been wrongfully evicted by cattle king Eli Dearing, Asher Ellis uses the cover of an extravagant ball to break into the Three Cedars’ ranch house to search for proof. On the verge of discovery, he flees, but a boy’s cry compels him to make a daring rescue.

Spunky and independent Samantha Dearing balks when she learns the ball her father is hosting is nothing more than a matrimonial ambush. Taking a break from unwanted suitors, Samantha spots a thief fleeing her home. When the stranger ends up saving her brother’s life, she hides the only clue to his identity left behind—his boot—and resolves to find him herself.

When Samantha encounters the older brother of a student she tutors, all thoughts of the bootless mystery man vanish. Asher values family above wealth, a rare trait that opens her heart. Afraid she will discover his past misconduct, Asher tries to keep his distance, but when a series of suspicious accidents befall her, he vows to protect her, even though saving her life could mean losing her love.

Love this story.

Love this story. it definitely took a turn that I was not expecting. Mostly, I love that I can be reminded of the blessings of following Jesus while enjoying an exciting adventure written in my favorite victorian Western times.

sweet TX twist on classic

sweet Texas twist on retelling of classic Cinderella story a lovely clean romantic mystery.

Pleasant conclusion

The story weaved with just asides to the title. Plot diverted the listener’s attention beautifully. The conclusion tied it up nicely.

That was clean and I didn't have to listen to all these sex scenes ..

That should honor and value made it refreshing it was nice to hear Christian values and people waiting until marriage to get together and the mention of our Lord Jesus Christ

Very enjoyable

Enjoyed the reader's performance. Kept me on the edge of my seat. Characters are believable and rounded.

Western

This western style clean historical romance was a delightful retelling of Cinderella! I loved the author’s choice of names for her characters, for the western style twist in the story, and for the fun flipped characters! Having the stepmother be a wonderful, kind Christian woman made the listening experience so fulfilling, and the way his brothers and the ranch hands on her ranch as active supporting characters satisfyingly filled out the story. I’m definitely getting more books from this author!

I love that I could not guess the guilty party I had no clue. So refreshing!

I adore these retelling. The scriptures and prayers that focus on the Lords grace makes these stories so enjoyable!

The love
