Celebrate Lit Blog Tour: Winning the Mountain Man's Love by Misty M. Beller





Book: Winning the Mountain Man’s Love (Brothers of Sapphire Ranch, Book 5)

Author: Misty M. Beller

Genre: Christian Historical Romance

Release date: September 3, 2024

In the wild mountains of the Montana Territory, the Coulter ranch is a place of family, second chances…and a hidden fortune.

As the second brother of six, Jonah Coulter has no shortage of family, yet he’s more than ready to find a woman who doesn’t see him as her second choice. Haunted by the loss of his sister Lucy and the rejection of his former fiancée, he sets out to find the aunt of a lost child his family has taken in. Maybe reuniting the girl with her only remaining family will give him the purpose he craves.

After fleeing her past and the man who killed her late husband, Patience Whitman has reinvented herself in the untamed Montana Territory. Relying on her gambling skills to survive, she’s determined to earn enough to buy the life she dreams of—a bit of land and a home of her very own, far enough away from people that she can finally find peace. But then a man shows up in town searching for her and says his family has taken in her niece, Patsy’s perfectly laid plans go awry. If Anna really is here in the Montana Territory, Patience can’t abandon the only family she has left.

As Jonah and Patsy navigate the treacherous landscape of their pasts and little Anna’s future, they must confront their deepest fears and learn to trust each other. But when Patsy’s dangerous past catches up to them, they must risk everything to claim the happily ever after they both crave.

From a USA Today bestselling author comes a mountain family saga filled with high stakes adventure, a surprise guardianship, and love that heals wounded hearts.

Christian Historical Romance is one of my favorite Genres. Misty M. Beller is a favorite author in this genre. Winning the Mountain Man's Love is Book 5 in the Brothers of Sapphire Ranch series. I have read this series from the beginning and I get excited when new books come out. 

I was excited to see that this is Jonah's story. Jonah is the second of the 6 Coulter Boys and in the last book was disappointed by a potential mate. Jonah has watched his brothers get married and he wants nothing more then to find his life long mate. Jonah is on a mission to find the Aunt of an 8yr old girls, Anna. Anna only knows her Aunts name is Patsy and she has red hair. He leaves the Ranch in Montana and sets out to find her. He eventually finds a woman matching the description, but her name is Patience Whitman. Jonah soon realizes that Patience is actually the Patsy he is looking for. He convinces her to come to Montana to meet her niece Anna. Jonah and Patience travel back to Montana and along the way get to know one another. Will Patience and Jonah have a relationship? Will Jonah find his life long mate? 

WOW, this book really tugged at my heart. Jonah really is a man of God and I LOVE how he is willing to help little Anna find her Aunt. Jonah and Patience both have past struggles, especially Patience. Patience was hesitant to trust Jonah because men have abused her in the past. I LOVE that Jonah is truly sincere and Patience sees that in him. I really enjoy seeing them trust in God throughout the getting to know you time and take things slow. This book is one of Faith, Family, Trust, and Second Chances.   I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys Christian Historical Romance. AMAZING BOOK!

A glimpse into our heroine’s world

In Winning the Mountain Man’s Love, Patience’s work as a gambler in the mining town Missoula Mills plays a significant role in shaping her character and her journey. But what was the reality of gambling in this time and place?

During the 1870s, the Montana Territory was a wild, untamed land, attracting adventurers, miners, and those seeking to make their fortune by profiting from the miners. With the influx of men and money, gambling became a prevalent pastime and a lucrative business. Saloons, gaming houses, and even street corners became hubs for various games of chance, including poker, faro, and dice.

For many, gambling offered a quick path to wealth, but it also led to addiction, debt, and desperation. The lack of regulation and high stakes often attracted unsavory characters, making the gambling scene a dangerous and unpredictable world.

Women like Patience, who found themselves caught up in this world, faced even greater challenges. They were often viewed as mere entertainers or worse, and their involvement in gambling was seen as a mark of moral failure. However, for some women, gambling provided a means of survival in a society that offered few opportunities for financial independence.

Despite the risks and the societal stigma, gambling continued to thrive in the Montana Territory throughout the 1870s. It wasn’t until the late 19th century that anti-gambling laws and reformers began to push back against the pervasive gaming culture.

Thankfully, Patience didn’t have to wait so long to leave the gambling world behind her, but that life certainly left its mark on her. I won’t share any spoilers, but I pray you enjoy Patience and Jonah’s story in Winning the Mountain Man’s Love!

Blessings!

Misty
