A Blizzard Changes Everything

Abigail Bracey arrives in Nebraska in January 1888 to teach school…and to execute a task for the government: to identify a student as the hidden son of a murderous counterfeiter—the man who killed her father.

Agent Dashiell Lassiter doesn’t want his childhood sweetheart Abby on this dangerous job, especially when he learns the counterfeiter is now searching for his son, too, and he’ll destroy anyone in his way. Now Dash must follow Abby to Nebraska to protect her…if she’ll let him within two feet of her. She’s still angry he didn’t fight to marry her six years ago, and he never told her the real reason he left her.

All Dash wants is to protect Abby, but when a horrifying blizzard sweeps over them, can Abby and Dash set aside the pain from their pasts and work together to catch a counterfeiter and protect his son—if they survive the storm?

Join the adventure as the Daughters of the Mayflower series continues with The Blizzard Bride by Susanne Dietze.

My Thoughts:

If you love When Calls the Heart or Little House on the Prairie, you’re going to love The Blizzard Bride. The most recent addition of The Daughters of the Mayflower series takes you on an adventure to the prairies of Nebraska. I’ve read almost every book in this series, and I’ve been impressed with each one. This was my first read by author Susanne Dietze and I enjoyed it immensely. The story went a little differently than I was expecting it might, the blizzard in of itself is a much smaller part of the book than I thought it would be.

I loved the whole undercover spies meets prairie romance element to the book. I thought the author did a wonderful job hiding the villain in plain sight, and though I figured it out early in the book, I couldn’t wait for the characters to figure it out, too. The story is full of love and forgiveness, and a renewal of faith in God. The Blizzard Bride is a wonderful addition to this series, and I can’t believe it’s almost finished.

Note: Each book in The Daughters of the Mayflower series is easily read as a stand-alone, so don’t think you have to go back and read all 10 previous books before enjoying this one. I hope you dive right in.

I recommend this book for lovers of historical romance and those who love prairie romances like Janette Oke’s.
