Joan Johnston has created a series around the six Wentworth children who were orphaned after the Great Chicago Fire killed their wealthy and loving parents and destroyed their home. Sent to an orphanage by a selfish and unfeeling uncle, Miranda, twins Hannah and Hetty, Josie and their two little brothers find themselves in hell. When the oldest Miranda comes of age and is able to leave, she takes her two little brothers with her and becomes a mail order bride which is chronicled in the first book of the series, Texas Bride. When the twins and Josie finally make their escape from the orphanage, they find themselves on a wagon train headed west where Hannah is to become a mail order bride herself (book two Wyoming Bride). But disaster strikes the wagon train and the girls are separated. Montana Bride is the story of Hetty and where she ends up after being left to die in a Conestoga wagon with an arrow wound to her shoulder.
Our hero Karl is a learned man who was educated at Harvard but finds himself in the Montana territory, determined to prove to his brother he can handle his end of their logging enterprise. Karl knows he is a smart, but plain man and he longs for the company of a wife and family so he places an ad for a mail order bride with children and waits patiently for their arrival. After being rescued, Hetty finds herself in the company of a Chinese man who is escorting Karl's intended bride and two children to Montana when disaster strikes yet again. Hetty feels her only choice to help the children is to pretend to be Karl's mail order bride. What follows is the slow and somewhat painful making of a family as Hetty and the children find themselves forced to tell lies about who they really are.
3.5 Stars
If you are a fan of historicals, a fan of beautiful descriptive writing, and a fan of steamy romance, you won’t want to miss out on Montana Bride.
Karl and Hetty start their relationship off under unusual circumstances. Not only is she marrying a complete stranger she is lying to him about who she is and who the two children are she is trying to pass off as her own. I will be honest in saying I didn’t really care much for Hetty at first. Even though I understand the reasons why she felt she had to lie when her and Karl met, once she knew the kind of man he truly was there was no question he would understand and accept her and the children. She continued to carry on the charade much longer than needed. Her constant reminder about her disappointment in Karl’s looks got old very fast. The word “plain” was way overused when she first met him. I really had a hard time connecting with her after she continued to prove her immaturity. The children in the story were oftentimes much more mature than Hetty seemed to be.
Karl was amazing. He was a patient caring man who only wanted to please everyone around him. He accepted the children and Hetty into his life even after he knew there was something off with her story. He was a loyal friend to everyone he came in contact with and was a very understanding boss with this logging crew. Even after he discovered the truth about Hetty and the children, he put his own feelings aside and continued to be a supporter for them all.
I loved the kids, Grace and Griffin. They added so much spark to this story. They have not had an easy childhood. They have experienced more hurt and heartache than any child should have to live through.
