Peterson (Wherever You Go) brings her Brookstone Brides trilogy to an exciting end with this triumphant love story. Ella Fleming, a trick rider for the Brookstone’s Wild West Show, is surprised when her brother shows up with news that their father isn’t doing well and is possibly being coerced by Jefferson Spiby, the man she ran away from to avoid marrying. Meanwhile, Phillip Deshazer, a working hand for the show, drowns himself in booze to avoid facing the death of his father or telling his brother, Wes, that their father died trying to save him. After Phillip confesses his love to Ella, he realizes that if he truly wants a chance with her, he has let go of the alcohol and his secret. This realization allows him to open his heart to forgiveness and tell everything to Wes. As Phillip gets the help that he needs, Ella is abducted by Jefferson; both Phillip and Ella must rely on God’s strength to overcome their circumstances. Peterson provides a fitting conclusion that will satisfy fans of the series. (Oct.)
