Aiming for Love

Aiming for Love is the first in Mary Connealy's Brides of Hope Mountain series and if book one is any indication of the series, I can't wait to read more! Connealy has a nice style of writing and kept my interest throughout the entire book. I was hooked from the beginning as the action starts right up and continues through the story, always keeping the reader wondering how in the world will things work out now. The characters are unique and likable. I really liked Ma Warden and her down-to-earth attitude and the wise way she dealt with the fears and idiosyncrasies of the self-sufficient Nordegren sisters. Jo, Ursula, and Ilsa, each with their own particular skills, lived in a land of grizzlies and mountain lions, lightning storms and blizzards and pretty much knew no fear. But to have strangers come and occupy their mountain was terrifying. Would they learn that not all folks from 'down there' bring trouble, sickness, and death? Think danger, suspense, a little romance and you have a recipe for an entertaining story. Aiming for Love is a captivating tale of family and faith, courage and love. Readers who enjoy historical romance will not want to miss this story. I received a copy of the book through Celebrate Lit. A favorable review was not required and the opinions are my own. This review is part of a Celebrate Lit book tour.
