Blog Tour and Giveaway: The Trouble with Nancy by Chautona Havig

About the Book


Book: The Trouble with Nancy
Author: Chautona Havig
Genre: Christian Historical Romance, Western
Release Date: July 18, 2019

Her reputation precedes her, whether the bad guys realize it or not.
Nancy Harrison has finally stepped out of her prissy box and tried to do something helpful–but did she go overboard in her first self-less act?

She can’t ride, she hates horses, and she’s terrified of being alone. What’s a girl to do?

Join the Pony Express, of course.

When Nancy Harrison’s family receives a tax bill they can’t pay, there’s only one option open to them. Her brother, Lewis, will have to join the Pony Express and earn the money that way.

It would have worked, too, if ruffians hadn’t attacked him and broken his leg.

She doesn’t want to do it, of course, but what choice is there? Lose everything or ride a stupid, smelly horse for a few weeks? Nancy decides that she’ll chop off her hair, take to the dusty overland trail, and prove that she isn’t a “flighty little thing.”

But things go from bad to worse as she discovers that riding astride is worse than sidesaddle—especially when you’re not used to it.

Can’t she just go back home to balls, teas, and the hope of a suitor before her twentieth birthday? Sans her hair, of course, because that’ll entice the fellows. Sigh.

My Review

The Trouble with Nancy is my first introduction to Chautona Havig’s writing. My goodness! It will not be the last. This is the second installment from her Gold Diggers series. Even though it is part of a series and I have not read the first book, I felt it could be read as a stand alone. I thought this was a fun read. I could not help but to laughing out loud at Nancy. I admired her courage and determination to being part of the Pony Express. I enjoyed learning some tidbits about this moment in history, too.

I am giving The Trouble with Nancy a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend this book for all readers who enjoy a well written and fun historical read. I look forward to catching up on the first book of the series, as well as, reading more by Chautona Havig.

I received this book from the publisher. This review is 100% my own honest opinion.

  1. I'm so glad you enjoyed Nancy. I wrote her but man, I didn't want to. So glad that I did it. She turned out to be a friend.

    The series is a multi-author series of unrelated books, so you're good. However, if you want another one, I highly recommend Jennifer Beckstrand's "Jessie & James."
