The Memory Jar by Tricia Goyer

The Memory Jar by Tricia Goyer

About

Book One in the Seven Brides for Seven Bachelors series.
Every year, 30-40 young Amish men descend on the cozy little town of West Kootenai, Montana, arriving in the spring to live there for six months and receive ‘resident’ status for the hunting season in the fall. They arrive as bachelors, but go home with brides! Sarah Shelter has lived in West Kootenai for the last ten years and wonders if she will ever fall in love. Since the tragic death of her best friend, she carries her memories in a jar along with the small items connected to them. For just as long, she’s also been carrying around her emotions instead of allowing them to penetrate deep into her heart. Now she’s met a kind and gentle man who may be able to break down the wall. But can Sarah risk her heart to finally achieve her dreams?

My Review

From the moment I start this book I fell in love with the characters.  It was refreshing to read a book where the characters are just good people and trying to do the right things.  This is the first book I have read where the characters are Amish and I am for sure going to read more because they are good books to read and they give me a break from some of the other crazy books I tend to read.  Anyways lets get back to this book.  Through the whole book I hoped that Sarah and Jathan would end up falling in love and be together when the book ended.  I have to say the author does a great job describing things because when I would read about Sarah baking I would always end up wanting to eat whatever the author described.  This is super sweet love story that almost anyone would enjoy!

The Trouble with Cowboys by Denise Hunter

The Trouble With Cowboys

About

Only one pair of boots—and the cowboy wearing them—can get Annie out of the mess she’s in.

Annie Wilkerson is Moose Creek’s premiere horse trainer and equine columnist for Montana Living. Money is tight as she tries to put her kid-sister through college and provide for her young nephew. When Annie’s column is cancelled, she’s given first shot at a new lovelorn column—and she can’t afford to turn it down. Only problem is . . . Annie’s never been in love.

Always resourceful, she reluctantly strikes a deal with the town’s smooth-talking ladies’ man Dylan Taylor: She’ll work with his ailing horse, Braveheart, if he’ll help her answer the reader letters.

Working closely with Dylan is harder than Annie imagined, and she quickly realizes she may have misjudged him. But her unwavering conviction that cowboys are nothing but trouble has kept her heart safe for years. And she can’t risk getting hurt now.
The more Annie tries to control things, the more they fall apart. Her feelings are spinning out of control, and her sister’s antics are making life increasingly more difficult. Annie knows she needs to turn the reins over to God, but surrender has never come easily.

When Dylan reveals his feelings for her, Annie doesn’t know what to trust—her head or her heart. The trouble with this cowboy is that he might just be exactly what she needs.

My Review

Once I started reading this book I couldn’t stop until I finished reading it.  I spent the whole book wondering how things were going to turn out.  There are also parts of the book that totally shocked me and I never would have seen some of the turns that it took.  Parts of it I totally predicted but I was still interested enough to keep reading it.  After reading this book it has really gotten me into reading more books like this.  I could never say enough good things about this book.  It was amazing and it was another one that was sad for me when it was finally over.
