The Sheepish Scribe

Stealing the Preacher by Karen Witemeyer

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This is a fun read with interesting characters.  Loved the pluckiness of Joanna and Crockett's steady character.  More character than plot driven, they include a flirty young woman, a grouchy old woman, the young scamp of a neighbor boy, and Joanna's father - the ex-outlaw and his gang-members-turned-ranch-hands.  How they all mesh together after a less than cordial start makes for a good story.  Through it all runs a deep thread of faith that binds them together.  Well worth the read!  Suitable for any age.
