The Sheepish Scribe

The Preacher's New Family by Linda S. Glaz
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

T.J. O'Brien is a circuit riding preacher, footloose and fancy free, in spite of the best efforts of the match-making mommas along his route. He's perfectly happy to fulfill his vow to serve God on his solitary path.

Sarah Rycroft is a widow with a young son and a farm to run. That difficult task is made even harder when the local banker makes it plain that he won't extend credit to a woman farmer. But she's determined to save the farm for her son's inheritance.

And then they meet...

A predictable and sweet romance suitable for any age. The conflicts are both internal - spiritual, and external - the black-hatted banker. You can't help but like the characters, which include a kitten and a horse.
