I’m a big fan of all Nerys Leigh’s novels, but I especially like her Escape to the West series because it’s Christian romance rather than regular clean romance.
There are three main things I like about her novels.
First, they’re funny. She has some great lines, and her characters have plenty of witty dialogue.
Second, she’s not afraid to put a spin on a popular trope. For example, a lot of historical fiction has the man attempting to court a woman who’s not interested. Courting Will reverses that trope, and has Daisy pursuing Will. Although he’s had a secret crush on Daisy for years, he has a past and doesn’t think he’s good enough for her.
Third, I like that the novels have a clear Christian message. People tell Will God has forgiven him for his past misdeeds, but it takes more than words for Will to believe this for himself. That’s familiar …
All in all, I think Courting WIll is one of the stronger novels in a series that’s already strong. Recommended for fans of Christian historical romance, especially those set in the American west.
Thanks to the author for providing a free ebook for review.
About Nerys Leigh
Nerys Leigh writes thoroughly romantic Christian historical love stories. She loves heroes who are strong but sweet and heroines who are willing to fight for the life they want.
She’s from the UK, which you would think puts her in a unique position to not write about mail order brides in the American west, but the old adage of writing what you know has never appealed to her. She has an actual American read each book before publishing to make sure she hasn’t gone all English on it.
No One’s Bride is the first in the Escape to the West series which tells the stories of a group of women willing to travel across America to find happiness, and the men determined to win their hearts.

About Courting Will
How can the right man be so infuriatingly wrong?
At first, that was a good thing. When Will began spending time with her and her young son, only four months had passed since the death of Daisy’s husband, and having her childhood friend around eased her loneliness and pain.
But now, a year later, Will is still spending time with her, and they’re still not courting, and it’s beginning to feel like not such a good thing.
With his wild past, Will is convinced he shouldn’t be a husband or father, so Daisy decides to take matters into her own hands. If he won’t court her, she’ll court him.
Until Will’s past catches up with him, and threatens to tear them apart forever.
