A Whiskey River Princess

A Whiskey River Princess (Whiskey River Brides #3)
by Theresa Oliver

 
What it must be like to live the life most would die for, you have money, someone waiting on you hand and foot, you are a princess and have it all. What goes along with that is demands, no private life, someone telling you what to do and who to marry. Which leads to the next question what do you do when you have it all but doesn’t want it? Well of course you run off to Whiskey River and start a new life where you can grow, be who you truly are and find love. Gabriella might be a princess, but she doesn’t want that life she wants a normal life and runs off to Wyoming where there is free and open space and a cowboy just waiting for her.

As is a norm for this author she gives you a very entertaining ready from a heartwarming romance to the excitement of a new life running the hills and smelling the roses as you go. The plot is wonderful, the characters even better, I fell in love with them from the first pages. The twists and turns were exciting along with the trouble Gabriella gets into. She is pampered and spoiled, but she wants so much more out of life. Dirk is a cowboy who stole my heart he is sweet, kind and caring. When Gabriella shows up he takes her in, helps her, cares for her and falls head over heels for her. I thought it was an exciting read with wonderful twists and turns, danger, smiles, excitement, I thought a believable story that holds your attention and keeps you invested. It is well written with delightful characters that made me smile. Gabriella and Dirk go together so well, they have chemistry and really balance each other out. I have really enjoyed this series and can’t wait for the next one to take me away back to a time when everyday life was exciting and dangerous.

Mail-Order Husband

Mail-Order Husband (Whiskey River Brides #2)
by Theresa Oliver


Sweet, clean historical romance that is suspenseful, heartbreaking, fast-paced filled with hopes, dreams and love. The story is believable with very likable characters most of the time that are determined and strong, you can relate to them.  I had small issues with Madison and how she dealt with Wyatt at dinner but after that she grew on me. The author put an interesting twist that you don’t normal see in this type of plot.

Madison needs protection, Wyatt is tired of being a gambler, she sends off for a mail order husband he takes her up on the offer. Together they complete each other as they learn what it takes to make a go at love. It is a cute read that I did enjoy, but not as well as the first one in this series. Yes it was worth my time.
