Before she dies, the stranger - a refined, educated Christian - informs Pepper that she was on her way west to marry a rancher she knew only through his letters.

Awesome book series

I read this entire series in about a week. Great characters and action. I love these books. Easy and quick read.

Intriguing plot!

Pepper Paige is sick of her life as a dance-hall girl. She decides to assume a new identity and get a fresh start. Then, she finds out her fiance is not who he claimed to be either. If they end their charade, will they still love each other? Can they trust God enough to walk in the truth? A great start for a good old western series.

Delightful!

Stephen Bly has given a gift of laughter, love, and joy. The delima faced by the main characters, Pepper and Tap, is unusual: however, it is representive of the trouble that deception brings, even for good or noble reasons. This book is sheer delight and I can't wait to continue the series!
