Boston Bride Salvation by Chloe Carley

Boston Bride Salvation Reviews

  I was impressed with this book written by a new to me writer. Chloe Carley takes her readers back to the year 1877. I found the story to be captivating and action packed. I was drawn in from the time I read the first page and on through to the last page. The author has won this reader over with Boston Bride Salvation and I will be reading more of her books in the future.
  Fiona Parker seemed to be having a streak of bad luck in her life lately. First there was the fire where she lost everything she owned . Homeless and penniless she answered an add to be a mail order bride to a rancher in Indian Rock Colorado. Things were not the way she had been led to believe in her letters from the rancher. She had no money to leave and no place to go. Then things got real interesting as the Cheyenne Indians decided to attack the ranch because the owner refused to give them food and was mean to the braves that came for help. Fiona was kidnapped by the Indians who thought she was a war Spirit. This is just some of the things that made up this adventurous story. There's a lot more action and some romance too. You won't want to miss reading this book.
  All readers of historical romance will find this book to their liking. It's also Christian Fiction at its best. You won't be disappointed.
  I was given a complimentary ebook copy from the writer and publisher through Book Funnel. Thank you. A favorable review was not requested. All opinions expressed about this book are my own.

  This is not your typically mail order story, and was well written with strong characters.  Fiona travels to Colorado as a mail order bride; only to arrive and find her fiancé was not what he had appeared to be in his letter.  How she handles her situation along with her faith made for a good story.  This was the first time I have read a story by Chloe and I hope it’s not the last. 
  
  I was given a copy and this is my honest review.

  What a refreshing story. The poor child had been tried again and again but her faith always lead her through. This story has a wonderful happy ending and makes you look closer into your ur own life and what choices we would have made in her place. Great read.

  Fiona is darling and her adventures make the story delightful, until the end, when I feel it all wrapped up a snitch too quickly. I wanted to see one more amazing rescue before Jonas was almost fatally wounded. It would have fit the first half of the book much better. I think that a favourite aspect of this book is the way stories from the bible helped Fiona know how to address difficult situations.

  I truly enjoyed this story. The characters all had great depth to them and some where easy to love while others, not so much. This is a very adventurous and quick moving story. It continually flowed from beginning to end never knowing what the ending well be. Many bible references and prayers.

  I enjoyed this book thoroughly. According to the book this is the author's first book. It is definitely a great start. I thought the book was very well done. I enjoyed all of the characters especially Fiona. And I got a kick out of Will, the stable boy. I thought the storyline was excellent and well organized. I liked that at no time did it feel rushed and I thought it ended well. I like how the scriptures were woven into the story and how Fiona used the inspiration she gleaned from them to help her deal with the situations in which she found herself.
  
  I look forward to reading more from this author.

  Short story, good storyline. Mail order bride finds that her groom to be is not all that he made himself out to be in his letters. Fiona isn't going to let anything get in the way of her faith in God not even a whole village of Cheyenne Indians that think that she is their good luck charm. Throw in a handsome Calvary man, you have a great story.

  This book was the first of hopefully many more by author Chloe Carley. It was not your typical mail order bride story. It had much more depth and had me waiting and wondering what was going to happen next. I am looking forward to future books by author Chloe Carley.

  A mail order bride with a twist. Fiona heads to Colorado for her marriage only to be abused by her drunken fiance. She is taken by the Cheyenne a a good luck charm until she is rescued by a captain. Twists and surprises in this delightful read. I read an advance copy and voluntarily chose to write a review.

  For a first novel I thought this was quite well done. I just loved little Will and of course Fiona and Jonas. I found the story gripping and fascinating, although I have to admit that it felt a bit rushed towards the end. I would have liked there to have been more interactions between Jonas and Fiona before everything ended so abruptly, albeit happily.
  
  On an very picky note - I found it strange and a bit annoying that with the opening diary entry, Fiona starts her sentences with ‘Am’ rather than ‘I am’ e.g. “Am now on the train... Am told... Am still a little nervous...” etc.
  Like I said, it is incredibly picky of me, but considering Fiona is supposedly from the elite of Boston and one would presume had been given a good education, I would have expected her to express herself well, even if it is only her own private musings. She speaks to the “savages” with more eloquence than she does to herself.
  Other than these two points (I acknowledge again, I am being finicky with the grammar) I really found this story interesting. From the history point of view - although sad since I don’t enjoy bloodshed (although this was thankfully not too gory) - it lent an authenticity to the era the story was set in and I suppose this made the story that much more gripping and believable, since events like these really did happen.
  
  While I can’t put this story in the category of a “light, sweet read”, it did have me continually turning the pages to find out what happened next. I don’t think anyone who likes western novels will be disappointed to read it and I look forward to seeing more novels from this author.

  Great!
  
  Fiona was an heiress, lost everything decided to become a mail order bride.
  Clayton is nothing like what his letters led her to believe. He is a drunk. He is rich.
  he is not a christian, though. He is very possesive.
  Fiona turns to the Bible verses throughout the story to help her in her time of crisis.
  Her faith in God shows.
  It helps when the Cheyenne comes to burn the house own, Will and Fiona bet together horses, food,cigars and present them to their chief. They let Will go, but they kidnapped Fiona.
  The Cheyenne think she has special powers and is their "Good Luck Charm"
  The Calvary come and Captain Jonas try to rescue her.
  She knows she must escape.
  
  She uses the Bible to her advantage.
  
  There are twists and turns.
  
  This is a clean Christian read
  Jonas likes her. She likes him.
