REVIEW:

Kristina Hall has wowed me with her new book Heart of Trust which is the first book in a new series called Hearts of the West. The first book I read by her was Trouble in Dry Springs and I will have to say I really enjoyed that book and was hoping I would like this one just as well. I’m here to tell you I loved this new book and can’t wait to read more of this series. I anticipate another great book that again will pull me in.

Once I started this book, I had a hard time putting it down. I did because my pets wanted to be fed and my grocery order was delivered and the milk needed to be put in the fridge. Other than that I was glued to my chair. This book is listed as Historical Christian Romance Fiction. It is all of that and much more! Don’t let the Christian part scare you away. It mainly shows you how the characters rely on the Sovereign one to bring them through the hard times and times of crisis. It reminds me that maybe I need to be a little more aware of Him in my daily life.

You might think Heart of Trust is a Western. It is and it isn’t. It takes place when a lot of folks were still riding horses and there were still gunfights and not a lot of law enforcement around to help solve problems with your neighbors. Jake and Georgia Aymes are a young couple and don’t have any children yet. They have moved to Texas from Tennessee and have bought a ranch to settle on. When I say moved, they actually traveled on horseback. I’m not sure I ever had it in me to travel like that. 

I liked this young couple and the grit they had to go after what they wanted. They had great faith that they could stand up for themselves and live productive lives on this ranch that was desired by more than one rancher in the area. They showed great love to each other. They didn’t waiver. We should all be like that!

If you love a good series, I just know this is one you won’t want to miss. I think we will all learn something and wish we were born to have the grit and determination Jake and Georgia had. If you’re looking to step outside of your comfort zone, I highly recommend Heart of Trust by Kristina Hall. I can’t wait for more of Hearts of the West Series. Until next time…Happy Reading!

SYNOPSIS:

Two cattle barons, a rancher and his wife, and the piece of land they all want.

When Jake Aymes purchases the ranch he’s long dreamed of, he doesn’t expect that he’s bought a tract of land desired by two other ranchers. Those ranchers resort to intimidation, and Jake begins to think he’s put his wife in harm’s way.

Georgia Aymes shared her husband’s dream of moving West, but the threats prove to be a constant source of stress. She fears that she and her worries have become nothing more than a burden to Jake.

Will she and Jake trust God as they face what might be the worst trial of their lives?
