Book: Aiming for Love
Author: Mary Connealy
Genre: Christian Historical Romance
Release Date: October 2, 2019
Josephine Nordegren is one of three sisters who grew up nearly wild in southwestern Colorado. She has the archery skills of Robin Hood and the curiosity of the Little Mermaid, fascinated by but locked away from the forbidden outside world–a world she’s been raised to believe killed her parents. When David Warden, a rancher, brings in a herd much too close to the girls’ secret home, her older sister is especially frightened, but Jo is too interested to stay away.
David’s parents follow soon on his heels, escaping bandits at their ranch. But his father is wounded and needs shelter. Josephine and her sisters have the only cabin on the mountain. Do they risk stepping into the world to help those in need? Or do they remain separated but safe in the peaks of Hope Mountain?

I have been a fan of Mary Connealy for MANY years! Her books are always exciting from the beginning to end. The characters are always unique and interesting. Aiming for Love, the first book in the new series, Brides of Hope Mountain, HIT the mark for me!
The series will focus on 3 sisters who have sheltered themselves from the world and have lived off the land in the Mountains. Aiming for Love focuses on Josephine Nordegren. The sisters are just enjoying life in the little Cabin in the Mountains and being self sufficient. They take care of one another, as they are all that each other has left. Their parents died(allegedly killed) and their grandparents passed away. All is well and then one day, Dave Warden climbs the mountain with his injured father(he had been shot) and discovers the girls living there. The girls have been taught the outside world isn't something they want to be a part of. Josephine decides to help them. Soon a romance is budding between Josephine and Dave. Will the romance flourish and will the sisters learn to trust the "Outside World".
Grab a copy of Aiming for Love by Mary Connealy, and I am sure you will LOVE it just as much as I did!! FANTASTIC book! I am very much looking forward to reading the next book in the series when it is released!

More from Mary
What it would do to someone to run wild from nearly their earliest memory? What if three young girls had the basic skills to survive a rugged life but no adults to guide them? Would they grow up to be a completely odd and untamed version of themselves, or the truest, in some ways most honest version? I wanted to explore that idea: wild children, tough young women, afraid of the invading world, but lonely, too. So I created the plot for my Brides of Hope Mountain series by mixing the three little girls who’d grown up wild on the top of a mountain with some fairy tale ideas. Book one, Aiming for Love, is Josephine Nordegren’s story. I had this vision of Ariel the mermaid seeing a man for the first time when strangers invade the high valley she lives in with only her two sisters. Curiosity is her besetting sin, or so she’s always been told. She has wilderness skills, mainly in the form of owning a bow and arrow and understanding wild animals, but for the first time, she is drawn to a man. Jo needs to be tamed, or Dave, the man she can’t stop watching from in the woods, needs to learn the ways of the wild, because they’re out of place in each other’s worlds.
