  Because I liked the middle book in this series so much, this one was a little bit of a let-down. While Rachel and Tristan's romance makes sense, the fact that Rachel is so disturbed by her family's secret (when she falls immediately in love with Tristan's three little girls) seemed like a bit of a stretch. Also, I would have liked to have seen more of the siblings we got to know so well in the last two books. Part of what I always appreciated about Lori Wick's novels is that when she shifts focus from one romance to the next, she gives us some moments with the couples we already know. I wanted a bit more of this to make the novel feel complete.

  He was supposed to marry her sister in a marriage of convenience, but when that didn't work out, he offered her the same proposal. She wanted more, so said no. Good clean romance.

  Good Read
  
  Sometimes following a path you didn’t plan, but God made allows you to reach the life and love you always wanted. Learning to have faith is one of the hardest things we must all do.

  This was a sweet book, but I didn't like it as well as the other two in the series. There were also quite a few errors that should have been edited better.

  A wonderful ending to a wonderful Wagon Train/Oregon Trail trilogy. We finally get the finale of a few story threads through the trilogy such as Clarence Pressman, the Tucker brothers, the stolen bank money, and Grayson Hewitt. Its also lovely to witness the double wedding of Ben and Abby as well as Emma and Nathan. Rachel and Tristan each have their own set of challenges. Tristan lost his wife in childbirth a few years earlier and is so devastated in his grief that he believes he can never love again and never marry a woman who expects them to have a complete marriage. He's seeking a wife only as a mother to his three young daughters. Rachel doesn't know what to do with herself. Her siblings are all married, leaving her feel unneeded. Tristan needs a Nanny and she volunteers. Then a twist! What was supposed to be a gift from her siblings ends up causing her incredible shock and emotional pain leading her to feel betrayed by her family. Both Tristan and Rachel need healing. The result is a very lovely and endearing romance.

  Book three of the Journey West series. Renee Ryan did a great job rounding out the story told by Linda Ford and Lacy Williams in book one and two.
  
  Rachel learns things about her life that make her question if anyone can love her. Since her brother and sister are engaged and they find a surprise when they meet up with Grayson in Oregon City, Rachel finds herself at lose ends. She agrees to care for Sheriff Tristan's daughters but she refuses to marry him with only a marriage of convenience. Having lost his first wife to childbirth, Tristan has vowed to never put another woman through that. A marriage of convenience is all he's willing to offer Rachel, or any other woman willing to become a mother to his daughters. Great story and I enjoyed the whole series.

  I really enjoyed this book. I received it as a freebie when I went to Book Expo America. I've never read an inspirational category book before, and decided to try this one. It was a nice change from some of the other types of romances I've read before. It wasn't too heavy on the Christian theme, but it was certainly a departure for me.
  
  I enjoyed the characters thought the story was well paced, and a nice change of pace from my typical reading. It was also a quick read, which was exactly what I needed.

  What a great read! Rachel Hewitt is a force to be reckoned with as Sheriff Tristan McCullough finds out as he assists the wagon train that's headed for Oregon City. His whole reason for being here was to find a mother for his daughters not to be discouraged by Rachel the sister of the women he was hopping to marry. By the end of the trail the Sheriff is much more open to Rachel being that women but with conditions. Will Tristan let love prevail or keep holding onto the past?

  Wagon Train Proposal is the third book in the Journey West Series. Although I have never read the first two I had no problem jumping into this book. This was a good clean romance and I enjoyed it.

  Sheriff Tristan McCullogh was on the wagon train, hopping to find a wife for his three small girsl (2. 4 & 6). But his long time friends sister that was on her way to Oregon, and he was hoping to have a marriage of convenience, had found a guy on the way to Oregon and planning to marry him.
  
  He didn't want any emotional risk, wife had died, and didn't want to put another woman thru anything like this. Had watched Rachel with children on the wagon train, but she turned him down. Rachel young and didn't want a marriage like this, loved kids, but wanted to also be loved for herself and children of her own. She loved the little girls, and they even wanted to know if she was going to be their "new mommy".
  
  Is that enough pull to change Tristan's mind, and try for a reg marriage. Do he have room in his heart for Rachel also? He likes her, but will this turn into love??
  
  Enjoyable read. Would recommend to others. Would recommend to others.

  I loved reading this final installment of this continuity series. This is actually my favorite. The girls are just so precious and Rachel and Tristan are wonderful together. The fact that they were in so deep before they acknowledged it to themselves was priceless lol. I highly recommend this book!
