ABOUT THE BOOK
Title: The Promise Tree
Series: Montana Treasure #1
Author: Janalyn Voigt
Publisher: Mountain Brook Ink
Release Date: May 5, 2021
Genre: Christian, Historical/Western Romance
A preacher’s daughter shouldn’t encourage a troublemaker—no matter what her wayward heart desires.
Liberty has always believed she should marry a man of God, but Jake doesn’t qualify. The promises they’d made at age twelve can’t change that. If only Jake would stop pursuing her, she might keep from falling in love with him.
Jake fears he’ll lose Liberty to Beau, the new man in town. He doesn’t trust the smooth-talker—and certainly not with Liberty. Expressing his opinion sounds jealous and pushes Liberty further away. Jake’s efforts to forget the woman he loves lands him in jail for a crime he didn’t commit.
A bounty hunter on the trail of a notorious outlaw gallops into town, and Liberty finds herself in unexpected peril. When Jake rides after her, he faces a test of faith. Jake and Liberty must each overcome their own false beliefs. Only then can they experience the truth of God’s redeeming love.
Set during a troubled time in America, the Montana Treasure series explores faith, courage, and love in the Wild West. Read this heartwarming story to affirm your faith in love.
Review: A western romance that builds over the course of the book.
Slow to start this book relies a lot on backstory building, though it brings back so many wonderful characters from the previous book series, as well as introduces many fantastic characters for what are sure to be great additions to the series. I liked the friendship between Phoebe and Liberty. Phoebe is an excellent horsewoman, and I enjoyed following her as well.
Liberty was hard to like at first, as I felt that she came off as judgmental and was overthinking things in her head. Though I did come around on her as the story progressed. I really admired Jake though, how he thought the best of Liberty through it all, and worked hard to prove himself to her. There were many well done, compelling conversations throughout the book centering on faith.
Overall, this was an enjoyable read that grew on me as the stakes rose and the tensions built. Strong themes of faith, and memorable characters. Fantastic for fans of western romance.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
