Emily's Chance by Sharon Gillenwater


A few weeks ago, I posted about the book Jenna’s Cowboy by Sharon Gillenwater.  Well today I would like to share the second book in the series, Callahans of Texas, called Emily’s Chance.  This is a great book that follows Jenna’s Cowboy, however, if you did not read the first in this series, this one is also a great stand-alone novel!  It is a story about forgiveness and letting go of past hurts to be able to and discover the true meaning of love.

Emily comes from a wealthy family in Dallas but she has had her share of hurts.  She came to Callahan Crossing to be the curator of the museum the town is trying to get going.  She met Chance Callahan when the town was fighting a fire and he helped her save artifacts from the museum that was right in the path of the flames.  Since then, she can’t get him out of her mind.  Should she give up her dream job in Dallas and stay with Chance in Callahan Crossing? Can she trust him?

Chance is just a good Christian cowboy. He has waited a long time to find the right woman to marry.  When he sees Emily trying desperately to save artifacts in the museum from the fire, he knows he has met the woman for him.  However, the more he gets to know her, he wonders if it really is God’s will. Will it be possibly for him to convince her to stay? Is there really such a thing as love at first sight?

I highly recommend this book.  There are so many messages intertwined within the pages of a story that will definitely touch your heart.  This is a book that is hard to put down.
