Rating: 3.5 Stars

     The Rancher Takes a Bride is the second book in the Martin's Crossings. It is about Duke Martin the second oldest Martin brother. After serving in the Army Duke is back in his hometown owning and running the town diner. He's about to get the shock of his life. He's a father to a twelve year old girl.

     While I enjoyed reading this book I didn't love it as much as the first book in the series. But it was still good and well written. The romance was sweet but it just grab me. But I will still pick up the next book in the series as well as another book by the author.

I received an e-copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Genre: Christian Romance

Rating: 5 stars

While I was sad to see  the Cooper’s and the Dawson go I really enjoyed A Rancher for Christmas the first book in the Martin’s Crossing series. It was a nice to see at least on familiar face in the book and in this case it was Breezy Hernandez Mia Cooper’s baby sister.  Mia finds out that she has a brother that she never knew about only to later lose him. She then finds that he named her co gurdain of his twin toddler girls with his best friend and brother-in-law Jake Martin.

After first Beezy and Jake don’t know what to make of each other or rather or not they can trust each other. It almost seems like it’s going to take a Christmas Miracle. My favorite character is Joe who everyone thinks he is a homeless drifter but that ends up being the biggest surprise in the book.

Overall I enjoyed this book and can’t wait for the next book in the series.  I received   an e-book from Netgalley in exchange for on honest review.
