Synopsis:
We all have dreams. For Florence Peterson, it was to leave her teaching position in Missouri or have her life relegated to the same thing day in and day out. On a lark, she sent a letter to a school in Oregon, never dreaming they’d answer! Now all she has to do is decide if she should take the position. Because it’s one thing to dream, another to have it come to life.
Alton Cutter had made the trip West more often than he’d like. Montana was fresh and new, and his brother was already there. With his wagons readied, the families in his wagon train readied too, all was well. Except for the crazy schoolmarm that had it in her head she could just “tag along.” He’d been planning this for too long to let some slip of a woman put a hitch in his plans. Let alone, his heart …

Review:
A story of moving far away and finding love along the way!
Montana Trails is the prequel to the Cutter’s Creek series. This is a story gives us the beginning history of how Cutter’s Creek came about. You will read about the hardships and long journey to get there. Along the way you will see the founders find love and go through different things that the long journey brings. Florence has decided that she is too old to find love and is determined to set off on a journey to start a new teaching job. Alton is determined and hopes to change Florence’s mind and to stay with him and give love a chance.
This is a great beginning to the series. It is full of romance, hardships, and relationship trials while keeping to the happy-ending that we all have come to expect. As I have come to expect with the books in this series, I had a hard time putting down, as it was a one-of-a-kind and captivating story. I couldn’t get to the end fast enough to see if love would win out or if Florence was determined to let teaching be what she was supposed to do with her life.
The characters are well developed, engaging and realistic. It is easy to connect with the characters. They aren’t perfect; they have their flaws just like you and I do. This makes the characters realistic and easy to have a connection with. They will quickly become like one of your friends, neighbors and family. I will definitely continue to read the series to see what happens with the rest of the characters. I am really curious if Amelia changes her way and finds love or stays the bitter girl that feels the worlds did her an injustice.
Kari Trumbo is a very talented author that gets better and better. She has a gift for writing entertaining and sweet stories. I have read several books by her and have not been disappointed yet! She has quickly become one of my go-to authors that I really enjoy reading. I recommend this book and series to anyone that enjoys reading a clean western romance with a delightful ending. This book is part of a series; however, it can be read as a stand-a-lone. If you are looking for a good series than Cutter’s Creek is a great place to start.
