Review
Avid inspirational readers who enjoy a good Western story will find themselves reading into the night with this one. Told from the point of view of both the hero and the heroine, this narrative features a slow-building, tender romance. A wonderful storyteller, Davis writes in such accurate and descriptive detail that the story has a surreal cinematic quality. Fans of Davis will find this one to be a charming page-turner with a moderate religious tone. -- Susannah Balch ― RT Book Reviews Published On: 2015-03-01

- Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2021Cowboy suspense, historical fiction, romance---what more could you want? In the early 1800s, Johnny is caught between the proverbial rock and hard place. With a cowboy friend, he runs away from his Colorado cowboy job to his brother's home in Texas. He's been accused of a murder, but he didn't do it. When he arrives at his brother's place, the brother is dead. AND the brother had sent money for Sally to come from St. Louis to be his mail-order bride. Johnny poses as his brother because they do look alike, while his cowboy friend from Colorado pretends to be his hired hand. Sally's on the train already. Sally had never seen Mark, the brother, so she didn't know that Johnny wasn't Mark. They'd written letters but had never met. Lots of twists and turns in this story. Many anxious moments for Johnny and Sally. Suspense makes you want to keep reading. Great story!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2019I choose a 5 star rating because... I loved the descriptive view the author gave of each character the land and all the thoughts and emotions surrounding the plot. I enjoyed this book because it want just another mail - order - bride fiction that was a thoughtless. The drama, love, pain, sadness, and a warm ending males this book well worth the time.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2021And this story was a little bit hard to get into but as you begin to know the two main characters it gets better and better. I had a rough time with life but as the story goes on It is good.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2023I loved this novel by Susan Davis Page. Lots of action but leaves room for plenty of tender romance. The historical setting was accurate and well-researched. This makes me hungry for more of her western historical romances!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2021This was a very engaging novel. And i like Susan Page Davis's dialogues. Very realistic, and so were the daily life descriptions. I struggled with Johnny's tamely following all of Cam's advice in the first few chapters. I was very afraid something bad was going to happen to Sally a couple of times. I was glad it had a good ending.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2019Really enjoyed this book. Lots of twists and turns along the way to a refreshing ending. Christian values are compromised but can repentance lead to changed lives? Great writing and a page turner as the I had to know what would happen to the characters next.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2021Johnny Paynter knows right from wrong, but, faced with possible imprisonment for something he didn't do, his lies keep him captive. Every time he decides to come clean, he listens to his friend, fellow cowboy Cam Combes, who encourages him in his deception. Widow Sally Golding agrees to become the mail order bride of Johnny's brother Mark. Only, when she arrives in Beaumont, Texas, she marries Johnny, who is posing as Mark. She know something isn't right, but she grows to love the man she marries. Johnny's deception and Cam's influence nearly destroy their marriage. Historical fiction set in Texas in 1815, The Outlaw Takes a Bride includes cowboys, ranch life, a mail order bride, and outlaws on a path of destruction.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2021Loved being with this author again. Johnny had to run from something he didn't do. Only to come face to face with his dead brother. Sally thought she was marrying one man instead got his brother. The guilt of taking his brother identity got to Johnny. He made things right all came out well. He became Sally hero. They their share of excitement too. Will read more by this author.

A Lovely Read!!
Really enjoyed it!
Sally is a woman determined to get marry, and Johnny is not exactly looking forward to it. You see, Johnny's brother, Mark was suppose to be the groom, but he meets an unfortunate end before we even meet him in the story. Sally is living in a depressing state and is anxious to leave her present situation, so she's very happy when Mark proposes.
Johnny is sweet, but appears to be quite naïve in the beginning of the novel. Johnny is supposedly accused of murder, and his friend Cam advises him to run away, which Johnny does, and Cam goes with him. I don't want to give any spoilers, but you'll see all the things Johnny does under the advice of his friend Cam. I really like Sally, she's very loyal to Mark aka Johnny, and the way she reacted to Cam's inappropriate behaviour is quite commendable, she's also smart to force Johnny to step out from under Cam's guidance.
I think readers will highly enjoy this novel, I know I did.
