The Lady and the Mountain Man

The Mountain Series, Book 1

By: Misty M. Beller

Narrated by: Leonor A. Woodworth

Leah Townsend, a recently orphaned heiress, flees Richmond after discovering her fiancé’s plot to kill her after their wedding. She needs a safe place to hide, and finds herself accepting a newspaper marriage proposal from a God-fearing young rancher in the Montana Territory. But when Leah arrives at the mountain ranch, she learns her intended husband was killed by a grizzly, leaving behind a bitter older brother and a spunky younger sister.

When Gideon Bryant finds an Eastern lady standing in his log cabin, his first thought is to send her back where she came from. He’s lost too many people to the wild elements of these mountains—his parents, his wife, and now his brother. His love for this untamed land lives on, but he’s determined not to open his heart to another person.

But when an accident forces Leah to stay at the ranch for seven more months, can Gideon protect his heart from a love he doesn’t want? Has Leah really escaped the men who seek her life?

The lack of overdone sex I usually have to fast forward through!

While a little cliche in the story, it was refreshing and moved along at a good pace. The background of characters were evident in their perception and action.
Christian/ religious based was so perfectly done. The message to me was clear, ask and ye shall receive. But I’m sure there will be different messages for other readers. Highly recommend.

A good Christian story

The book was exciting. Narration was excellent. The entire book Helt our attention. I would recommend

Good story

Really good story. Refreshing from all of the stories of today that only revolve around one thing. Good heroine and hero. Will read next book.

THE LADY AND THE MOUNTAIN MAN

This is the first book in this series. Leah has to leave home so she goes out West as a mail order bride. When she gets there her future husband has been killed. The storyline is interesting from there on. His brother is there and not happy that she is. The rest of the story is about them. There is a lot of things happening. Gideon falls for her but wont let a relationship start. She is the same. She ends up leaving and gets in trouble. Gideon has to save her. This is more action than usual , The rescue is great. This is a very interesting book. I think this is going to be a good series. This was a good book. Leonor Woodworth did a good job narrating this book.
