Kirsten Osbourne – Mail Order Misunderstanding

Julia traveled West to be a schoolteacher. Thomas requested a mail order bride. When he arrives at the train station to pick up his bride, Thomas mistakenly thinks Julia is there for him. Julia sees Thomas and thinks he's there from the school board. She's married an hour later.

Callie Hutton – A Chance To Love Again

Widow Rachel Stevens is very happy with her job as a cook for the Lazy Sunset ranch where she is raising her son. However, the new foreman, Rusty McIntyre, is turning her life upside down. She could overlook how her son has begun to idolize Rusty, but she’s having a heck of a time ignoring the flutters in her stomach every time the man smiles at her.

But Rusty has problems of his own. His previously unknown fourteen year old daughter has just arrived to live with him. Used to always being on his own, now he has a young boy following him around imitating his every move, and a surly young lady glaring at him. Throw into the mix the tug he feels toward the ranch cook—who wants no part of him—and life is no longer as easy as it once was.

Caroline Clemmons – Save Your Heart For Me

After fleeing an abusive husband six years ago, Beth Jeffers wants nothing more than to protect her son Davey and to help her mother operate a Texas Hill Country boarding house. The strong women in her family have had no luck with men, and she has no intention of letting any man influence her son. Not even handsome lawman Matt Petrov, no matter how much her lonely heart urges otherwise.

Federal Marshall Matt Petrov, also known as Lone Wolf Peters, fell in love with Beth the first time he saw her. Then she was another man’s wife, so he kept his longing a secret. But he’s saved his love for her for six horrific years. Now, the lovely widow and he have crossed paths again. This time, he intends to risk all for a chance at happiness. First he must rescue his distant kinsman from an assassin’s clutches and protect Beth’s son Davey from the villain. Mystery, kidnapping, and twists await Matt and Beth. But will Matt’s secrets shatter the love he and Beth share?

Sylvia McDaniel – Desperate

After the death of their father, the McKenzie sisters, Meg, Annabelle and Ruby try the normal ways for women to earn a living in a small western town. When they fail, the McKenzie sisters decide to take up their father’s profession, bounty hunting. They quickly learn they can use their feminine wiles and their Baby Dragoons to earn their way in the old west. They’re tough and resilient, badass women in this historical western novella. Kick off the adventure with the first installment of the new series, Lipstick and Lead with Desperate.

Merry Farmer – The Indomitable Eve
The one thing Eve deLaurent has wished for in the two years since her sister, Amelia, was whisked away to America was to be a family again. But the tragedy that befell her once Amelia was gone has left her wounded, body and soul. Now, reunited with her sister, all Eve wants to do is run. Amelia’s new, happy life is a betrayal deeper than Eve can stand. She would leave and never look back, were it not for Mark Andrews.

As Cold Springs’s reverend, Mark is used to people confiding their darkest sins and looking to him for help. So when he sees the pain behind Eve’s mask of confidence, all he wants to do is help her. But Eve awakens a desire in him that reminds him that even a man of God is still a man. They seem to be everything the other wants and needs, but can the people of Cold Springs accept an actress in their pastor’s arms? Can they be together if bitter family betrayals keep Eve and Amelia at each other’s throats?

You’re only as strong as the loves that hold you together...

I think when someone like me, who has read some really great books in their lifetime, reads a book (or in this case anthology) that's just okay (at best), it colors your ability to find enjoyment in it.

The first story I didn't consider to be anything other than a teaser - it just ends. No resolution, no idea of what might be coming that would lead you to read further. The second story was, to be polite, bland. I did not attempt the other offerings.

DNF.

Definitely NOT Christian romance

Vulgarity, foul language, unbelievable plot, and not even very good writing. Very disappointed and glad I didn’t pay for the book.

Awesome collection!!

An awesome collection of romances. A five book collection of western romances. Five powerful stories of love, struggle, and the men who stole their hearts. Wild Western Women is an awesome, well written collection that will steal your heart. I found a few more authors to follow, some were new to me, some old favorites, but all were well worth reading. To be able to read this collection all in one boxed set was a true treasure. Each author brought forth their own unique writing style and voice, each title was well written with engaging and interesting stories. Well worth your time, especially, if you enjoy Western romances.

Too morally convicting

This book was well written and interesting, but I can't recommend it because of the foul language and intimate scenes that brought guilt and conviction for even reading it. There is not much Faith based content at all and I am considering giving up all romance novels all together, as a waste of God's precious time. I think I will stick with true life biographies of men and woman of God.

I have only read Kirsten Osbourne's book in this set. This was the main reason I got this book. The story was interesting and suddenly it was just over. I felt it left a lot of unresolved issues. All of the Brides of Beckham stories thus far had been happy endings and this felt like it was just a teaser. I really hope I didn't just get a bad copy though. As for the other stories, I will come back later and read them.
