When a cat causes a horrible mixup…
Pastor Paul Buchanan is told he needs a wife and soon or he would lose his church. After much prayer, he decides to look. With no eligible women in Austin, TX, he writes to a mail order bride matchmaker.

Ellie Simpson’s parents died five years ago and she has been struggling ever since. She needs to get out of Philadelphia, preferably to a small town. She writes to a mail order matchmaker with only three stipulations: he can’t be a drunk, a pastor, or too much older than her.

After they meet it soon comes out that they are not compatible in the least and they choose to be friends, but no more. When Paul’s cousin, Conrad, comes to town and appears to be exactly what Ellie is looking for, Paul has to deal with his jealousy and figure out why he is jealous.

Will Ellie find what she is looking for? Can Paul keep his church or will the elders throw him out?

Sweet story of overcoming the past and finding faith

I gave this story 4 stars because i loved it till the last chapter or so. I think the ending was abrupt. The author did not continue with the romance she started the ending with. It just needed something more. I was left feeling i missed the best part.

Christian Historical Romance

I loved that this book showed the transformation from an unbeliever to a repented sinner! I enjoyed the conversations with Margaret about God and Mrs. Phillips about Paul as their friendships grew, and was especially fond of their relationships and assistance for Willa and her friends. But, best of was was Robert's prediction regarding Paul and Ellie!

I really enjoyed this book. Even though Paul and Ellie are definitely not the match the other wanted, I loved the way they worked through their differences with the help of their friends and God. A sweet, clean historical romance that I think you will enjoy.

I loved the story. It was heartfelt and realistic.
It shows how someone can be hurt by Christians or someone claiming to be a Christian. Then find the truth about Christ to have a relationship with him.

Fun, Light-hearted Romance

Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2021

Paul’s Skeptical Bride is a sweet, entertaining novel that’s perfect to read in one sitting!

The prologue was entertaining and made me interested to know more. I didn’t really connect with Paul and Ellie right away, but as I got to know them better, I grew to like them more. I admired Ellie’s independence and straightforward personality, but I also appreciated that while she could come across as blunt sometimes, she was also courteous and truly cared about others. Paul wasn’t a particularly vibrant character, but I did like how loyal and protective he was of Ellie. He didn’t push her to make a decision too soon. Ellie and Paul seemed to fit each other really well despite their differences, and I was rooting for them the whole way.

Although the plot line was predictable, it did keep me wanting to know how things would turn out between Paul and Ellie. The pacing did seem rather rushed and sparse though. I didn’t really feel immersed in the story—I would have liked to get inside the characters’ heads more and see them work through their struggles. Even their romance seemed to progress a little too fast. There were very few scenes where the reader actually experiences them getting to know each other and grow to love each other.

But all that being said, I did enjoy watching Ellie and Paul grow and change over the course of the story. Mrs. Phillips and Margaret were both such good friends to Ellie and had a big part in her being able to overcome her painful childhood and accept Christ as her Savior. It’s always refreshing to see such iron-sharpening-iron friendships in fiction!

If you enjoy fun, light-hearted Western romances that make you chuckle, this is the book for you!
