STORY-LINE INSPIRED HEART:

A short light read, Inspired Heart's a sweet western romance by author Carolina Johnson. Rebecca's a young widow left with nothing except 2 gold twenty dollars pieces, a watch, and her wedding band.

CHARACTERS, PLOTTING, DEVELOPMENT:

Although a short novella, Inspired Heart is a sweet relaxing love story which leaves the reader with a feel good feeling. Novella's can not go into the depth of story or characterization as their parent, the novel, due to their short length. However, Johnson included everything needed to craft a satisfying story.

With well-developed characters for the short length of the story-line, I found Rebecca a strong woman willing to take risks. For traveling by herself to the wild west was a huge risk for any woman in this time period.

Finally, in concluding my western romance review of Inspired Heart, I found the pace steady and the story-line original. Suitable for young adults and adults, Inspired Hearts is a clean sweet romance especially suitable for the young romance reader. Furthermore, the author included a bonus regency romance novella, A Lady's Reluctant Heart, in this book. Can a heart wounded young woman find happiness again in regency England? Two sweet romances for the price of one. What a deal!


INSPIRED HEART RECOMMENDATION: STARS 4

I would not hesitate to buy this book for anyone that enjoys sweet romance stories.
