Blue Moon Promise by Colleen Coble is a very inspiring read. I couldn’t help but admire the heroine’s determination and strength in trying to keep her family together. At some point, I would have thought that she will break down and give up, but she did not, and that, is very admirable.

I did not like the hero in the beginning, but I warmed up to him when he finally accepts his responsibiliy instead of finding his way out of it. You see, I like men who are responsible and is protective of his wife and his family instead of an undependable one.

Overall, I enjoyed reading this book, and I would recommend this book to those who enjoys a good, inspiring read. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. I received an ARC of this book from Thomas Nelson Publisher in exchange of an honest review. I was not required to write a positive erview for this book.

Book description:

Lucy Marsh’s worldly resources are running out, but she’s fiercely determined to care for her younger brother and sister. When she discovers that their father’s recent death was no accident, Lucy is eager to leave town. She accepts a proxy marriage she believes will provide safe refuge. But trouble follows her to Wichita Falls, Texas, where the man she came to marry seems surprised to suddenly have a wife and children to provide for.

Nate Stanton always hoped he’d marry someday, but running the family ranch meant he had no time for romance. When his father deposits Lucy Marsh—a city girl—on his doorstep, with two siblings in the bargain, he expects ranch life will send her running on the first train out of town. But Lucy is made of tougher stuff than Nate imagined. When danger moves in, Nate realizes he’d give anything to protect Lucy and the children he’s grown to love. Even if it means giving up his ranch.

Blue Moon Promise is a story of hope, romance and suspense…immersing the reader in a rich historical tale set under Texas stars.
