    About this audiobook

    Brides of Hope Mountain • 2

    He’s Seen the Entire Country. She’s Never Been Off Her Mountain Home. When Danger Comes, This
    Unlikely Couple Will Need to Rely on Each Other.

    After years of isolation on top of Hope Mountain, Ilsa Nordegren may finally be ready to leave. Raised to fear the
    world, Ilsa and her sisters never planned on coming down, but when the Warden family arrived in need, they had to
    help. But with the arrival of added danger, it may cost them the only life they’ve ever known.

    Having made his fortune, Mitch Warden returned home and found the family homestead abandoned. In a land
    grab, a ruthless cattle baron had forced his family to escape up the mountain, and when Mitch follows, the last thing
    he expects is to fall smitten with a strong-willed, dark-haired woman who dresses like Robin Hood and defends herself
    better than most men.

    Mitch is intent on helping his family reclaim their land but doesn’t realize the risks his past has brought. Hired
    killers are tracking him, and he’s determined to draw them away before anyone else gets hurt. But that means a journey
    to the city—and when Ilsa insists on joining him, the mismatched pair suddenly find themselves on an adventure
    they’ll never forget.

      Woman of Sunlight is the second book in Mary Connealy's Brides of Hope Mountain series and I am looking forward to the next one! Definitely could be read as a stand alone but reading the first book in the series, Aiming for Love, will add interest to the characters and more background information to the story. Connealy has a nice style of writing and kept my interest throughout the entire book. I was hooked from the beginning as the action starts right up and continues through the story, always keeping the reader wondering how in the world will things work out now. The characters are unique and likable. It was interesting to see the world of the 1870s from Ilsa's eyes. Ilsa is a young woman who has never been off the mountain and is now traveling to cities with tall buildings and lots of people. As she and Mitch, a man running from his past encounter one difficulty after another, think danger, suspense, and romance and you have a recipe for an entertaining story. Woman of Sunlight is a captivating tale of family and faith, courage and love. Readers who enjoy historical romance will not want to miss this story. I was given a complimentary copy of the book through Bethany House Publishers and was not required to write a review. The opinions are my own.
    • 5/5
      I have come to expect fun and romance when I see a new Mary Connealy book and I certainly wasn't disappointed with Woman of Sunlight. This second book in the Brides of Hope Mountain series introduced another Nordegren sister and once again, I was drawn in by the tale of three sisters who had always lived on Hope Mountain and been warned by their grandparents to reject everything connected to modern civilization. Ilsa is the focus of Woman of Sunlight and she is a brave young woman who dresses like Robin Hood and swings from the treetops. As the book opens, she and her friend Mitch are recovering from chickenpox but this proves to be the least of their problems because they are soon involved in keeping Mitch safe from a would-be murderer. What follows is a lot of danger and adventure but oh, there is so much more. Ilsa leaves Hope Mountain with Mitch and sees and hears things that she's never experienced before. Lights in the houses, music like she's never heard, and people everywhere. She is even more surprised when they arrive in Chicago and she witnesses big city life. Food that she's never seen or tasted, coffee available all of the time, and clothes that make her look like a woman. Things that are so foreign to her and so common to all of us.I found myself laughing out loud as I read Connealy's description of Ilsa's reactions to civilization and I was caught up in the danger and adventure of trying to discover who is after Mitch. And then, there was the romance---romance as only Connealy can write! Mitch soon realizes that this 'wild child' has stolen his heart but is there a chance that she will ever feel the same about him?If you enjoy heart-warming romance, thrilling western adventure, and a story that will have you laughing out loud, look no more. Woman of Sunlight is just what you need!I received a copy of this book from the author and Bethany House. I positive review was not required and I am voluntarily sharing my thoughts.
