To Capture a Mountain Man by Robin Lee Hatcher Review

 Happy Monday Sweet Friends :)

I pray today finds you all doing well, and that you all had a lovely weekend.

I ended up not feeling the greatest for the majority of mine, and I had to work Friday and Saturday, so it wasn't quite as productive as I was hoping it would be. That being said, I did get to spend some time reading, and earlier in the week my hubby and I went away for a quick getaway to celebrate my birthday that was on the 15th.

I'm grateful this year for the many blessings the Lord has bestowed upon me, and one of those amazing blessings is this book blog, and all of my lovely blog readers.

I'm excited you're here today, and I can't wait to share a review of another lovely Christian fiction title.

Before we dive into today's review however, if you're interested in reading my reviews of the previous title in this fun series, you can do so using the links below:

To Capture a Mountain Man by Robin Lee Hatcher:



Source: Complimentary Copy Provided by the Author as Part of Her Review Team in Exchange for an Honest Review.

Publisher: RobinSong Inc.

Publication Date: February 10th, 2025

Genre: Christian Fiction/Historical Fiction

Series: The British are Coming



Synopsis:


She came seeking adventure. He never expected her to find him.

Lady Amanda Whitcombe dreamed of the untamed beauty of the American West from the moment Buffalo Bill’s Wild West dazzled her during the Queen’s Jubilee. But nothing could prepare her for the rugged wilderness of Yellowstone—or the man who would change her life forever.

When Amanda is swept into the icy currents of a park river, game scout Isaiah Coltrane rescues her. Used to solitude and determined to avoid entanglements—especially with a woman as refined as Amanda—he’s eager to return her to civilization. Yet her courage and quick wit soon prove there’s more to her than the polished exterior of an English lady.

Bound by circumstance and danger, Amanda and Isaiah must navigate the perils of poachers, rustlers, and a growing affection he is not ready to admit. Isaiah believes Amanda belongs in the world of fine society, not the remote mountains he calls home. But Amanda’s heart has already chosen him—and she’s willing to fight for the man who believes he’s unworthy of her love.

A romance of courage, love, and an unbreakable bond forged in the wild.

My Review:

To Capture a Mountain Man is the third title in beloved author Robin Lee Hatcher's The British are Coming historical fiction series. Right from the opening words this lovely story captivated my attention, and I've been looking forward to reading Amanda's story ever since her character was first introduced in a previous novel.

Readers follow along as Amanda has been left in the care of her brother's friends, while he has traveled back to England with his new bride to take on his new role as Earl of Hooke. Amanda's never quite fit into the picture everyone's expected of her in her position in high society, and she can't deny how drawn she feels to the rugged landscapes in the beautiful state of Wyoming. When an accident in her beloved Yellowstone Park derails her plans, Amanda finds herself in the company of rugged mountain man, Isaiah Coltrane. As the two travel together back to the ranch where Amanda is staying for her time in America, an unexpected friendship with the hint of something more starts to grow between the two. However, Isaiah feels he could never measure up to what Amanda is worthy of, and how could the two of them ever move past society's expectations.

Robin Lee Hatcher has penned another wonderful historical tale that highlights the beauty of the state of Wyoming, and the notion that nothing is impossible when we choose to trust our Heavenly Father with our futures. While this wonderful story can easily be read as a stand alone, you'd definitely be missing out by not first reading the first two stories which are every bit as amazing as this one was. 

A forbidden romance, a faith based plot, and the keep you glued to the story writing I've come to expect from this author all made this one a win win in my eyes, and I would highly recommend it to anyone in the mood for a Christian historical fiction title.

Final Rating: 4/5.

Thanks so much to Robin Lee Hatcher for allowing me to advance read and review this title!

I voluntarily read and reviewed a complimentary copy of this novel from the author as part of her review team. I was not required to give a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are my own, and this is my honest review.


Thanks so much for reading guys! I hope your week is off to a wonderful start :)

Della and Darby by Susannah B. Lewis Review

  Happy Monday Friends :) I pray today finds you all doing well, and I'm so thankful you decided to stop by my little corner of the internet. My husband and I actually have this week off of work for a much needed holiday, and I'm excited for the many fun things we have planned. Aside from the fun things, I'm honestly thankful to have some extra time to get my house back in shape, and to get more organized for Christmas. I also hope to have lots of time to curl up with some great reads, and I recently had a chance to read one of my most anticipated 2023 releases! Earlier in the year, I read my first novel by Susannah B. Lewis, and I couldn't have loved it more. It was definitely one of my favorite reads of this entire year, and I've been looking forward to reading her next release ever since. If you'd like to check out that review, you can do so using the link below: Bless Your Heart Rae Sutton Otherwise, keep on reading down below for today's full review. De...

First Line Friday: Courting Mr. Emerson

Happy Friday Everyone :) Since it is Friday, I'll once again be participating in First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books .  For this week, I'm going to be sharing the first line from Melody Carlson's newest book, Courting Mr. Emerson. About The Book: When the fun-loving and spontaneous artist Willow West meets buttoned-up, retired English teacher George Emerson, it's not exactly love at first sight. Though she does find the obsessive-compulsive man intriguing. Making it her mission to get him to loosen up and embrace life, she embarks on what seems like a lost cause--and finds herself falling for him in the process. A confirmed bachelor, George vacillates between irritation and attraction whenever Willow is around--which to him seems like all too often. He's not interested in expanding his horizons or making new friends; it just hurts too much when you lose them. But as the summer progresses, George feels his defenses crumbling. The quest...

Top Ten Tuesday: Ten Characters I'd name a child/cat/dog/car/ etc After.

Happy Tuesday guys! I enjoyed Top Ten Tuesday so much last week, that I decided to go ahead and take part again this week. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and The Bookish, and here's the link to the main page if you're interested in becoming a part of it: http://www.brokeandbookish.com/p/top-ten-tuesday-other-features.html Today's topic is: Ten Characters I'd Name A Child/Cat/Dog/Car/ etc After, and I think it's going to be a really fun one. First, Characters I'd Name a Pet after: 1) Katsa from Kristin Cashore's Graceling: I have to start with Katsa, since it is actually what we named our adorable black and white kitten almost a year ago. She's grown so much since this picture, but this was taken right after we decided on her name. We tried several different book characters, but Katsa is the one she loved right away, and so is what we ended up going with. 2) Rose from Richelle Mead's Vampire Academ...
