The Provider

The Provider Saga, Book 1

De: John Deacon

Narrado por: A.T. Chandler

When Will Bentley was nine years old, he promised his dying father that he would take care of the family.

Growing up quickly, Will provided whatever his mother and sister needed, whether that meant putting food on the table, fixing a leaky roof, or driving off troublemakers.

This became more than Will's duty. It became his identity. Then war took him away.

Now, Will's coming home to Texas.

Caring for his family and the intriguing young woman next door will be a tall order. The economy is dead, corrupt bluebellies are on the prowl, and old enemies want Will's land, his women, and his life.

It's enough to break a man. But Will Bentley is no ordinary man. He is The Provider.

The Provider is a classic Western with a touch of romance. It's perfect for fans of C.J. Petit and R.O. Lane.

My first John Deacon book.

This is the first book by Deacon I’ve read, and I’m glad I came across him. I’ll be finishing this series and checking out others of his books.

Has it all

The quiessential Western. And the fact it’s a series is even better. I love Deacon’s stories!
And A T Chandler is the god of western fiction audio performance. He has an amazing voice anyway but the way he uses it, brings characters so vividly alive. He female characters are so incredibly believable, for such a deep and resonant male voice. I just want more!

Great hero

The story was great and I loved the deep voice of the narrator!! I’ve read all the books and was not disappointed in the performance! Great!

I felt bad about how things were back durinh the Reconstuction. especially in Texas.

How fast Will and Maggie fell in love. I imagine if that happened today. they would skip the preacher and get a motel/hotel room.

Fun story of an all American young man with a heart of gold and love of family

so I actually have listened to this story cover to cover 3 times now. Something I rarely do, even if I love a book I rarely go back to it. A little short compared to what I'm used to, but theres something to be said in me listening to it multiple times.
I love exploring the male perspective, and Will although a young man was an interesting character. The romance was sweet, two babies finding and being in love(I'm just 3 years older than Will but they're babies to me lol). Looking forward to the rest of the series and more from this author,love finding my kind of people!
