Very impactful story about love and secrets. Saffie and Miles were both impacted by deceitful people in their lives. Letters written by someone else on both of their behalf betrayed them both. Omissions of the truth also made it harder for them to continue in a life that was good for them. They need to hash out their differences, bring their secrets to light and learn to love each other wholly. The characters in this story are well written and keep you reading and cheering them on for a happy resolution to their problems. You won't put it down until you are done!
The author has written a powerful story of secrets, lies, deception and romance. This is Saffron and Miles' story, and the character development is excellent. Both of them have been deceived by others and when they enter into marriage, they take their secrets with them. These secrets have the potential of ruining their marriage and forever altering both their lives. When and how will they reveal their secrets to each other? Will their marriage grow into a HEA. Be sure to this real page turner to find out. I know you will enjoy it as much as I did.
Sweet story of a mail order bride with secrets that she withholds from her husband. When Miles finds out that he’s been lied to, he becomes irate and forces Saffie to leave. Will they be able to mend their broken relationship?
I absolutely loved the epilogue! And Zac... my heart ached for what he must have endured. Our youngest son is a combat vet, so Zac was a special person in this story for me 💔
This story starts out with a terrible tragedy between sisters and letters to the marriage agent that we’re written by other people that were close to them. Miles was a rancher with a terrible burden from his time serving in the war. When Miles and Saffron finally meet they neither tell all of the truths from their pasts creating a cloud over their future together. You will enjoy discovering how they find their happily ever after.
I really enjoyed this book. A sweet, clean historical romance that had great characters and an unusual plot. Secrets, deception and lies almost destroy Saffron's and Miles marriage, before it's hardly started. They need to get everything out in the open if there marriage is going to survive.
Saffie has secrets and Miles does too. From the beginning they say secrets don't matter, the past is the past. But her having a secret nags at Miles and a falling out leads to lots of truths.
A cute love story of two people who lied their way into a situation only to back out of the situation and that left two innocent people in a situation of none of their making. Starts off with a murder accusation and a sentence to hang.
Saffie is a caring, kind and compassionate woman who has ended up in trouble. A collection of lies, deception and fear lead Miles and Saffie to a happily ever after.
This is a nice story. I picked it up in the recommendation of a friend, and I did like it. But it just felt unpolished. I think a revision of this could make it an excellent story. The author has potential for sure!
Saffron’s Savior was an enjoyable short romance with charming (😉and some not-so-charming😉) characters. It’s the first book of the series that I have read. I’m looking forward to reading the previous books!
The storyline is a great story of all kinds of twists and turns. From bad to good, out of others lies come a love of a lifetime. Very emotional and I enjoyed reading from start to finish. Our faith tests us when we least expect it.
I always enjoy Margaret Tanner’s books. Well written, believable and a nice sweet read. There is just enough drama and sweetness that is not cloying. Fir a great read, learn about Saffie!
