My Thoughts on Rocky Mountain Journey

This is book three in the Sisters of the Rockies series. If you haven’t read books one and two you need to stop and read them before you read this book. It’s an amazing read but so is the entire series!

In this book, we follow Faith. Well, Faith as Frank for part of it. That’s right. We’ve got a woman dressed as a man so that she can go where she wants to go. Because women couldn’t just travel freely around, it wasn’t safe.

To add to the story we have Grant. He joins the trapper team that Faith/Frank is travelling with. Only, he’d met Faith before and rather liked her. He can’t get her out of his mind. And now this man keeps making him think of Faith!

Will Grant figure out who Faith really is?

Add in some danger, a fair amount of suspense, and a love story. It’s a novel you’re going to love! It’s the third in the series and the conclusion. I couldn’t put it down. This is an author that I really love. Everything she writes is historically accurate and really makes you feel like you’re there.

A HEROINE DISGUISED AS A MAN

I love a heroine in disguise! It’s one of my favorite tropes, but I don’t often get to write stories with that plot. It adds so many fun and funny moments to the storyline. J

In Rocky Mountain Journey our heroine goes undercover as a “man” to travel with a group of trappers so she can reach her destination safely. Numbers meant a better chance of survival back in those days. I love that Grant, our hero, was the only man in the trapper group who looked close enough at the young “man” riding with them to realize things weren’t what they seemed at first glance.

One challenge that definitely arises in a story where the heroine is pretending to be a man is the development of the romance between her and the hero.

In this case, Faith was pretending to be her (fictitious) brother Frank.

Grant had met Faith in an earlier chapter before she took on the disguise, and he immediately noticed the resemblance between “Frank” and the woman whose memory still lingered with him, even days later. Every time he looks at “Frank” while they’re travelling with the trappers, he recalls the memory of Faith by the waterfall…and the attraction to that woman grows a little more every time. What a shocking surprise when he discovered she was riding just ahead of him on the trail the entire time!

I pray you love Faith’s stint “in disguise” in Rocky Mountain Journey! J

Blessings!
