| Montana Territory in 1883 was a dangerous place--especially for a blind woman struggling to make her way through an early winter snowstorm. Undaunted, Noelle Kramer fought to remain independent. But then a runaway horse nearly plunged her into a rushing, ice-choked river, before a stranger's strong, sure hand saved her from certain death. And yet this was no stranger. Though she could not know it, her rescuer was rancher Thad McKaslin, the man who had once loved her more than life itself. Losing her had shaken all his most deeply held beliefs. Now he wondered if the return of this strong woman was a sign that somehow he could find his way home. |

Seventeen-year-old Noelle Kramer was filled with the hopes and dreams of first love, believing that in Thad MacKaslin she had found the man she would spend the rest of her life with. But on the night they were to elope, she learned he had left town without a word, and she believed she would never see him again. Although her heart was broken, she planned to marry another and at least have a home and family of her own, until a tragic accident left her parents dead and Noelle blind, destroying her plans for the future.
Now, five years later, in the winter of 1883, Noelle lives a quiet life with her aunt, uncle, and cousins. Her blindness has caused her to give up all her dreams of love, marriage, and children. On their way home from town during a blizzard, Noelle and her aunt are almost killed by a runaway horse, but a stranger saves them - a stranger Noelle soon realizes is Thad MacKaslin, who has returned to their hometown of Angel Falls, Montana. And although both Noelle and Thad try to deny it, they still have feelings for each other. Has God given them a second chance at love and happiness together?
This book was one of the most enjoyable historical romances I've read in a while. Fans of western and inspirational romances are sure to enjoy this story of two people who had given up on a future together but are given a second chance to realize their dreams. The love story was incredibly sweet and emotional, rather than so many romances which focus on the physical romance but neglect the emotional side of a relationship. I'd highly recommend this book to readers who enjoy a sweet and emotional romance without all the graphic scenes. |
Loved it!

| I thought this was such a sweet story! I loved the gentle personalities of the characters. As I was reading, I begin to imagine what it would be like to be blind to try to understand Noelle's thinking. I just really enjoyed this sweet story! |
Awesome Story

| Homespun Bride was just an overall enjoyable read, and I read it straight through. It's romantic and sincere, and it's about what love REALLY is. |
Great Story!

| I just bought this book last week and have already read it all the way through twice. I love the characters and how they learn to trust each other. I also love how Thad is so caring for Noelle. |
Wonderful Western Romance

| This is a great story about the challenges of naive young love facing off with reality. At first I thought the story would end up being cynical and the two young people involved would find love elsewhere. After all, when things don't go as planned, sometimes people think a curveball means they doubt God's hand on their lives or that He doesn't care. But true to God's kind of love, this was a story about two people who overcame obstacles of bitterness and un-forgiveness. And in the end, their love endures and they are reunited. Both with a more mature perspective in life, they are able to look forward to fulfilling their dreams together. Life isn't always smooth sailing, it has bumps and curves along the way. But I'm a terrible romantic at heart and I appreciated the fact that despite what life throws at us, God is in control and Fairytale endings are still possible! |
