I received a free copy of this story from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review. I look forward to reading Cora’s story most! Love on the Border is a well-written and fast-paced story for those who enjoy this and other mail order bride series. This was my third favorite of the series so far. Although I admired the strength of her faith, I did not fully agree with the portrayal of faith. He is not perfect but works to overcome his personal demons. Roger gave me the creeps at first, but it was nice to see his character growth. I really like the rest of the cast of characters as well.

Before this book, readers do not learn much about this sister, so I enjoyed getting to know more about Hannah. The latest McKinnie Mail Order Bride release tells Hannah's story. I would have bought Love on the Border as well if I had not had the advanced reader’s copy. The series was no longer available on Kindle Unlimited after completing the first two, so I purchased books 3-5. The McKinnie sisters’ stories quickly had me hooked and I read the first five books over two weeks. Never having read any other book by Ciara Knight, I found the first two of this series on Kindle Unlimited. When I was approved to read the ARC of Love on the Border, I was unaware it was the sixth book in a series. I have voluntarily decided to read and review, giving my personal opinions and thoughts. The publisher through Net Galley provided a digital ARC. Note – The description names the male main character as John Miller but my copy has him named as Eli Hayes. With an exciting conclusion, it is an excellent story. Two more different people couldn’t be found, making their story one of trust building in each other and God. Still she has her faith and a strong sense of right and wrong. Hannah McKinney also has experienced hardship because of the Civil War.

A child of adversity he has carved out a way of life, just not a lawful one. However, this author has brought her easy read, character driven style to this historical romance too.Įli Hayes knows how to survive but has lost his moral compass in doing so. Usually the books I read written by her are contemporary, plus I read a couple written right after WW II. This is a different story from what I usually read by Ms. Love on the Border (McKinnie Mail Order Brides #6) by Ciara Knight is an engaging story taken place in the 1880’s.
