Review: Healing the Mountain Man's Heart by Misty M. Beller



My rating: 4 stars / I really liked it



Synopsis

In the wild mountains of the Montana Territory, the Coulter ranch is a place of family, loyalty…and a hidden fortune.

Jericho Coulter, the eldest of six fiercely devoted brothers, is entrusted with safeguarding his family and the secret that binds them together: the Sapphire mine. To keep tragedy from striking again, he allows no outsiders on their land. When two women stumble upon their ranch, claiming Jericho himself sent for one of them as a mail-order bride, he aims to send them straight back where they came from.

Dinah Wyatt, a talented and determined doctor, wasn’t about to let her twin sister travel to Montana alone and marry a stranger. Dinah’s skills are immediately put to the test when one of the younger Coulter brothers is gravely injured, forcing the family to trust his life to her.

As Dinah and her sister become entwined in the Coulter family's life, sparks fly between the enigmatic Jericho and the captivating doctor. In a world where trust is hard to come by and secrets hold the power to change lives, Jericho and Dinah must learn that sometimes, the most precious secrets are those buried within our own hearts.

From a USA Today bestselling author comes a mountain family saga filled with a mail-order bride, hidden treasure, and love that heals wounded hearts.


My Review

I'm thrilled for a new series from a favorite author! Jericho has no idea what to do with the two women who show up expecting Naomi to marry him, but it was fortuitous timing since Dinah was able to care for his seriously injured brother. The forced proximity gives the ladies time to get to know the family of men, all while the brothers are trying to keep the secret of the mine of sapphires on their land. Jericho is especially protective due to the charge his father gave him before passing away, reminding me of Travis Archer in Short-Straw Bride by Karen Witemeyer. I love how Dinah helps Jericho rediscover his faith and how trusting in the Lord requires us to let go of our fears. They have great chemistry and make each other stronger. I'm looking forward to seeing what is in store for the rest of the family!
