I am reviewing a copy of The Trials of Nellie Belle through Light Message Publishing and Netgalley:
Nellie Belle's parents marry off Nellie Belle to the ranch foreman, she realizes Motherhood will follow.

At the start of a progressive era she leaves her husband and son in Kansas and takes her two daughters West with her.
Nellie Belle works towards becoming the first woman court reporter to travel the circuit in the region.


In makeshift courtrooms in small towns, as well as growing cities with new Halls of Justice buildings Nellie touches the lives of hardworking men, enterprising women and immigrants. But when her prodigal daughter comes home with baby in arms Nellie will do everything she can to pull her scattered family together again.



I give The Trial of Nellie Belle four out of five stars!


Happy Reading!
