Rating: 5 stars
A Pony Express Christmas is a Christmas novel from love
inspired historical that is a marriage of convenience. Jake Bridges is a stock
tender at a pony express station. Leah
Hollister is an orphan that has come to Colorado as a mail order bride, who is
also bringing Jake’s niece Molly to him. When Leah learns that her groom has
died, Jake offers to marry her so that Molly will have someone to look after
her while he works.
Jake can offer her a home and friendship but nothing more. But
what neither realizes is that Christmas is the time for miracles. Even though
it was a fictional novel I am glad that the author included real pony express
riders like William Cody who would later become Buffalo Bill Cody. Even before
this book I knew Cody was a pony express rider from watching the tv show the Young Riders as a kid. I’ve always loved
the Pony express time in history I just wish there was more historical fiction
novels about this time period.
