Katie is working for the telephone company, but her family wants better for her. They are pushing her to accept the advances of Bart, who is in her social circle, but Katie isn't sure that she can fall in love with him even though her parents want her to. When Katie overhears a conversation over the phone, what she hears gets her involved in a mystery that will turn her world upside down and put her life in danger.

Will is taking care of the lighthouse, but his passion lies with weather forecasting. His brother is in town investigating piracy in the waters near the lighthouse. When his brother asks for help, Will is so accustomed to bailing his brother out that it isn't hard for his brother to talk Will into questioning a woman his brother knew in the past. Finding an abandoned baby isn't quite what he expected, but neither is Katie.

Katie is suspicious of Will at first, but his motives become clear through his actions. I really liked Katie's character and the way she worked through her issues. Her parentage is her main secret, but even she isn't fully aware of the extent of the secret. The parentage of the baby is also in question, and even though both Katie and Will love the child, they aren't sure they will be able to figure out who her real father is. Working to discover who's behind the acts of piracy throws them together and they come to care for each other.

As usual, Coble delivers a solid story full of romance and mystery. It's a great book and a nice addition to the series. The first book is The Lightkeeper's Daughter and the third is called The Lightkeeper's Ball. The characters from the first book are there in a minimal sense and you can read these out of order with no issues. I recommend this book.

The Lightkeeper Bride Mercy Falls Series #2 Colleen Coble 9781595542663 Books Reviews

This was an excellent book. It was uplifting as spiritual qualities came through. It has pirates and treasure, murder, kidnapping, an orphan who is kept by the lighthouse keeper who thinks it may be his niece. The heroine thinks it may be her father's. There is a smallpox epidemic. True love comes through when they put their trust in God. There are panicky moments with threats and knives, etc. At the end the family is healed and the main characters are going to be okay except for those who stole and murdered. This is an excellent book to read and is very adventurous.
Katie Russell enjoys her job as a telephone operator in Mercy Falls, California. She hears many things as she works the lines, but one night, a familiar voice catches her attention. Her friend Eliza disappears shortly thereafter, and Katie soon suspects that the crime may be linked to the new lighthouse keeper, Will Jesperson.

They form an alliance, trying to solve the mysteries that surround Eliza's disappearance, and it slowly begins to blossom into something more. But she is expected to marry well, not a lighthouse keeper with neither name nor fortune. Will she be able to look past society's expectations, as well as those of her parents? Will peace from God be enough for her future, no matter what or who is in it?

Collen Coble has done it again with The Lightkeeper's Bride. The second installment in the Mercy Falls Series, she weaves a tale of suspense, intrigue, mystery, romance, and historical drama. I couldn't put the book down, much like the first one. There was such a character contrast between the inquisitive Katie and Will's irresponsible brother Philip.

All in all, it had a very suspenseful plot and believable characters. There were times I wasn't sure if Coble was going to ever get to the happy ending as everyone was in one fix or another in this wild ride set in 1908, California. I learned a lot about the actual process of a telephone operator in this time period, and the book was a peek into the Progressive Era, of which I know little about. A wonderful book, and one I will recommend!
Katie Russell has a good job as the telephone operator for Mercy Falls, but that is just something to do. She has grown up as the daughter of the local Haberdashery owner and thus lived the life of a wealthy child. The home is teeming with servants, local society thinks highly of her, her church family thinks highly of her and life is good.

But one day she overhears an argument on the phone and the woman whose home the phone is in has now disappeared and it appears that foul play has taken place. Her infant daughter, Jennie, was abandoned and has no one to care for her. Through a strange series of events Katie thinks that maybe the baby is the responsibility of her father, but the new Lightkeeper thinks that the responsibility is that of his brother.

The mother of the child was a popular woman with the local men, so who knows who the father really is. But Will decides that he will take the baby to the lighthouse and take care of her until he can convince his brother to step up and do his duty. But he soon realizes that he is in over his head. He has to be up all night tending the lighthouse and then be up all day tending Jennie. It won't work.

So he asks Katie if she knows of a good nanny that he could hire. Katie adores the little baby and wants to help but what should she do. Right about this time a small pox epidemic breaks out in the town and Katie is not allowed to go home where her mother and the servants are all sick. So, she gets an elderly lady friend to join her in moving into the Lighthouse to help with the care of Jennie during the epidemic.

Now the fun starts. The romantic tensions rise. Katie has been committed to another relationship by her father, but one she is unsure of. Now she is with Will and the sparks start to fly. What does that mean.

Now, let's add in the intrigue of Pirates and ships being stolen. gold disappearing and strange things happening around town.

All in all it becomes a fun romantic, mystery and crime solving novel. The ending will be different than you think, which also adds to the fun.

It was a great summer read, sit on your porch, drink some lemonade and let Colleen take you out to the West Coast of the U.S. for a wonderful adventure in a lighthouse.

Enjoy!
