by Kari Trumbo
-From Goodreads- Hattie Arnsby’s been a slave to men and whiskey for the last year. She’s drowned herself in drink to avoid her life at the Red Garter Saloon in Keystone, SD. When a handsome deputy finds her after a year of searching, she finally sees a sliver of hope. Hugh Bradley is deputized to find Hattie and bring her home, but her captors aren’t ready to set her free. He must help her be rid of the drink and the binds of the brothel. But when Hattie’s handed temptation, will she run back to her past or embrace the love growing between them? Kisses in Keystone, the second novel in the Seven Brides of South Dakota series by Kari Trumbo, combines romance, history, action, and faith into a story you won’t want to put down. ASIN: B07G4H8YYY He had no clue what he was getting into... | This Book received a 4 Bark rating. |
My second confession is that it took me awhile to see the tie-in between Kisses In Keystone and the Biblical account of Hosea. When I finally did catch on I was a bit worried that it would follow the story a little too well and I would only feel sorry for Hugh and hate Hattie. I shouldn't have worried, Kari Trumbo handles it with skill. The addition of the western setting and the threads of danger serve to keep this slightly edgier story of redemption entertaining.
This is the second Seven Brides Of South Dakota book that I've 'read' in audiobook. As with its predecessor I found the production to be well done and the narrator to be a good match for the characters. Historical romance is one of my favorite genres, and if you enjoy it as well, this audiobook would be a good choice...
