A Moment to Love is an excellent read. Tracie Peterson has been an author I’ve enjoyed reading and a talent I’ve been inspired by for two decades. Some of her books, I reread every couple of years, they’re just that good. I hadn’t read any new work in several years and then A Moment to Love caught my eye.

Really, the title is wrong. It should be ‘A Few Hours to Love’ because I thoroughly enjoyed all this story. The premiss involves Carrie, a pioneering neurologist whose work is stolen by her fiancé. After finally ending things, Carrie decides to return to her hometown of Cheyenne to regroup and try to rebuild her career.

Her plans are thrown for a loop when friend Spencer, a Pinkerton operative, asks her to marry him. Although drawn to Carrie, Spencer wants help tracking down a ruthless criminal who is thought to be residing in the Wyoming town, and being linked to Carrie will smooth Spencer’s path.

And so we are off on a rollercoaster of a journey. The book is everything you’d hope for in a historical romance. Details about the town’s growth and medical developments of the time, a real sense of place, and, of course, a sweet romance.

All in all, a lovely read that I’d highly recommend.
