This is book nine in Daughters of the Mayflower series however it is a stand alone book. If you enjoy reading historical, mysterious romance you will love this book. We travel back to the 1860's and a Pony Express Station. Jacqueline Rivers, Jack, is a loving, determined girl who wants to continue doing all her father has taught her (even if it is normally done by men). When two travelers bring trouble, drama and so much more Jack must face some hard decisions and a true test of faith. Elijah Johnson is just wanting to fulfill a desire of his old friend and business partner. While waiting at the station he can not predict what all is in store for him. This novel is full of love, friendship, mystery, history and so much more.

The Express Bride. Woodh.ouse Setting is of 1860.a carriage to take her bundle of joy, and jewelry when she was a treasure to her husband. The threats and bruises she’s wanting to get as far away as she could. To running a pony express station in Utah at the beginning of the civil war, to others she is know as Jack. The work is hard, and hopes she won’t be discovered. Then Elijah comes looking for the lost daughter of his employer, the clue he was given had to be wrong, a good historical era of time when we had the pony express. Given ARC for my voluntary review and my honest opinion by Net Galley and Berkeley.

This story was a lot of fun to read. Woodhouse took me on an adventure way out in the middle of nowhere and I enjoyed every moment. This story had so many unique twists and turns I had no idea were coming. I have never read a book about the pony express and found it fascinating. Jacqueline was so much fun to watch and I felt the pain she was feeling after losing the man who raised her. His shoes were some big ones to fill. I love how she loved the boys who rode for the express and how they became like a family. I can’t imagine riding so many hours at such fast speeds to deliver something we often take for granted now a days. It was interesting seeing how women were viewed and to imagine how it would be living in those times. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Historical Romance. I received a complimentary copy of this book and was in no way forced to post a positive review. All opinions expressed are my own.
