This week I wish to share about a very good book written by Susan Page Davis....THE OUTLAW TAKES A BRIDE. I really enjoyed this book.

My Review:

Reads like a movie.....

When I was asked to read and review this book, all it took was seeing the cover. I am one of those readers that is drawn in by book covers. When I read the synopsis, I wanted to read it even more. I truly enjoyed this story, it kept me turning the pages. It is a story of love, trust, hope and new beginnings. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves Historical Romances. I am going to pass this book on to someone else, hoping to enrich another reader's life.


About the book:

Johnny Paynter flees Denver to escape being hanged for a murder he didn’t commit. At his brother’s ranch in Texas, where he thought he could take refuge, he finds his brother, Mark—dead. Taking advantage of his strong resemblance to his brother, Johnny assumes Mark’s identity. Soon Johnny discovers that Mark had been corresponding with a widow named Sally in St. Louis, and she’s en route to be a mail-order bride to Mark. Seeing no other option, Johnny makes a fateful decision to go through with the wedding, posing as his brother. But Sally has secrets she's hiding, too. How will a marriage survive with so much deception?
