Mail Order Brides of Sanctuary
Filling His Brother's Bride with family dynamics, emotion, and romance, McVey's second book in this series, will grab your attention immediately. McVey did a splendid job crafty a shy inept character in Glen. Clueless in his pursuit of Lyla, or should I say non-pursuit, he fumbles his way along; frustrating Lyla to no end. I really did not like Glen when I began this book, however, by the end, McVey matured Glen into a likeable man, as he realizes the situation and takes steps to resolve it. Glen has issues he must face and resolve about Greg, as well as, facing his clueless nature. He's man enough to ask for help with his flaws.
I found Lyla quite a character; strong with a fierce temper, and frustrated with Glen's attitude, she did not mind voicing her opinion. When she verbally blasted him, I laughed out loud. What a temper! Maturing from a dreamy girl, Lyla's strength and compassionate heart will stand her in good stead.
McVey gave Greg characterists of an adventurer, searching the wild west, and seeking the sunrise over the next hill. But as he grew older and wiser, he's ready to come home and settle down. McVey endowed him with a conscience, Greg battles his emotions, doing his best to stay away from Lyla. But when Greg realizes God's plan for his life, there's no stopping him.
Family dynamics play a large part in this book. McVey skillfully portrayed the competitive nature of siblings, as well as, competition for maternal approval and love. Myrtle's a fountain of wisdom and love for her boys. A wise Godly woman, who knows her boys and their hearts. Christian value, morals, and faith play a large part in this story. However, McVey does not push his beliefs on the reader, rather faith is part of his characters life style.
I found his characters well-developed with a solid story-line, and a sweet clean romance. The emotions of attraction are intense, however, McVey had no need of sex to convey those emotions to the reader; his writing skill alone carried the scenes. A standalone read, McVey gave enough background from book 1, the reader connects with the story-line and characters immediately. I would not hesitate to buy this book for my self or a friend.
