Book Description

January 1, 2000
"Though Dixie Sullivan knew it was God’s plan that she come to the beautiful South Dakota woodlands to open a retreat lodge, she’d never felt more alone or underqualified. Until God provided help in the form of a stray Border collie and a handsome cowboy. But Erik Wheeler was anything but an angel as he stormed into Dixie’s orderly life with the force of a tornado. Dixie could see skepticism in her new foreman’s eyes, yet she soon proved that with faith and determination, miracles could happen. And as Erik turned her dreams into a reality, she wished for an even bigger miracle—one that would make her Erik’s Black Hills Bride! "

More About the Author

Deb Kastner lives and writes in beautiful Colorado. Though two of her three daughters are grown, her nest is apparently never going to be empty; but it's been a real blessing to have her two grandchildren living at the house. Getting writing time in is challenging, but playing pat-a-cake with a baby can't be beat!

Deb writes for Harlequin's Love Inspired line, and is currently working on her eighteenth novel for them. She's thrilled that most of her backlist is now available for the Kindle. She feels especially blessed to be able to include faith as a natural and genuine part of her characters lives.

3.0 out of 5 stars Very Slow, January 20, 2012
Though I managed to read this book in a few hours, I found this book to be extremely slow. There wasn't much dialogue, and I found myself skimming several pages that basically held the same information over and over. It was hard for me to believe that someone like Dixie changed so much. I mean she showed up wearing name brand clothes, fake fingernails, and high heeled boots? My favorite part was the wagon ride and picnic. I found it funny and romantic...I also had trouble believing that John could change over so quickly...

5.0 out of 5 stars A dream come true, March 29, 2009
This review is from: Black Hills Bride (Paperback)
Dixie Sullivan believes it's God's plan for her to open a retreat/dude ranch in the Black Hills of South Dakota after her fiance, Abel, leaves her for missionary work in South Asia. She's not that knowledgeable about running a ranch, but she has help in the form of her foreman, Erik Wheeler, a skeptic but an honest, hardworking man. Asking if true love will bloom between Dixie and Erik is beside the point.

The only thing that rings false in this story is Erik's sudden conversion. If you doubt God because of family or personal tragedies, you're not immediately going to toss your skepticism in the trash because you've met someone. Dixie, to her credit, lives her faith and provides a good example to Erik.

The book provides a few insights into how God answers prayers. Sometimes God doesn't give us the desires of our heart. Why? "The heart is treacherous," we're told at Jeremiah 17:9. What we want might not be what's best for us (Dixie marrying Abel, for example). In that respect, a Christian has to allow himself or herself to follow God's will on the matter and not try to work it out on their own. The Bible also states that "whatever we ask of him, according to his will, he gives us."

Notice the condition: according to his will. God doesn't give us exactly what we want all the time. To suggest that he should is to behave like a spoiled, whiny child. God gives us enough so that we can make the right decisions and live a good life, as well as look forward to the future.
