Love's Mountain Quest
is the second book in Misty Beller's Hearts of Montana
series. As often happens in series the main characters had been
secondary characters in the first book. Joanna Watson is a widow with
a young, high-spirited son, a single-mother trying to earn a living
and make a home. Isaac Bowen assisted her on her journey to Settler's
Fort after her husband's death. He is a quiet mountain man with a
past. Together they must search for Joanna's missing son and friend.
Beller tells the story of how their relationship changes during this
quest while also following the harrowing tale of the kidnapped son
and friend. I loved the plot, the action, the character development,
the sensory images, and the inspirational message. I must admit
however, that each time the characters mentioned feeling comfortable
or confident in their own skin, I cringed just a bit due to what
seemed out-of-era language. This would not keep me from recommending
this book though; I thought it was a wonderful read, and am looking
forward to the third book. I am grateful to have received a copy of
this book from Bethany House in exchange for my honest opinion. I was
under no obligation to provide a positive review and received no
monetary compensation.
