The Bride Wore Spurs Love Inspired Historical Janet Dean 9780373829620 Books Reviews

Janet Dean's story develops the characters well. It is easy to connect with the headstrong Hannah and overprotective Matt. The situation leaves the reader to wonder if everything will work out in the end for the characters. For me personally, this was a quick read. The story maintained interest and had me wanting to reach the end. There are some memorable scenes in the story with imagery that brings the reader in.
Janet's books are always filled with heartwarming, memorable characters who face life's challenges with grace and strength. Tortured hero Matt has more than enough on his plate when the tomboy he grew up with returns as a beautiful woman. Hannah's sassy attitude and willful determination challenge Matt to take a chance, not just with the land he loves, but with his heart. Sparks fly between these two characters, but so too does a chance for redemption and healing as they each try to fix the wounds of their pasts. A wonderful read, and one that will stay in your memory long after you finish the book!
THE BRIDE WORE SPURS is the first time I experienced reading JANET DEANS work. A classic case of the perfect combination to win over a potential buyer. The title captured me, then the cover, the back blurb, and the last piece to seal the deal, reading the first pages. WOW! What a way to start a story.

Hannah Parrish needs to come up with a plan to keep her family ranch and quick, and Matt Walker seems to be just the man to put a plan into motion.

Matt couldn’t have been more surprised if Hannah Parris had asked him to marry her. Wait, she just did. With a ranch Hannah refused to lose, and Matt not wanting to give his heart to another, it was a match he couldn’t deny might just work.

MS DEAN is a gifted writer and storyteller. I loved the characters, as well as the plot. A marriage of convenience is one of my favorite scenarios. It’s not always easy to pull off a believable storyline, but MS DEAN managed to do just that.

I spotted THE BRIDE WORE SPURS on facebook, and thankful that I had.
Texas, 1888. Hannah steps off the train from Charleston. A finishing school has sent her home in feathered finery - to a cattle ranch. She's determined to be back in Stetson and boots very quickly, but her father's serious illness threatens to change her world.

Hannah's neighbour Matt has been helping to run the ranch and like her father, he believes she should sell up and move to Charleston. The stubborn girl doesn't realise that she's going to need friends. The ranch foreman checks with the boss before taking her orders, the cowpokes refuse to answer to a girl, her father tells her to just help in the kitchen. Women's work is hard work, but Hannah is so determined not to lose her home that she asks Matt to marry her. While it would join their lands he's not sure that this is a good solution....

I was pleased by all the detail about the cattle and living conditions. Longhorns were crossed with Herefords for an improved strain, and Hannah helps to deliver a calf, though most cows manage themselves. Dresses are altered, including wedding dresses, and water is carried to where it is required. The hard work and danger of branding and trail driving is also well described. Just as with Laura Ingalls Wilder, Hannah forgets to add sugar to her first cooked fruit pie.
It is in keeping with the times that people consult a Bible and thank the Lord for something good in their lives. However I got tired of the characters expressing wonder at the Creation every time they looked at the night sky. Also devout people would not have entered into a marriage that was going to be for business only, as a marriage was considered to be a complete union. But it's good to see that inspirational romance doesn't have to mean stuffy, as Dean writes with a sense of mischief and the collected wisdom of western women.
Predictable.
I enjoyed reading this great historical story and also read the rest of this series. Janet Dean is a great author
Nice story, good read.I really enjoyed the characters and how they came around to finding their love for each other.
