This book takes place during the great depression and is a testament to how God can help you over come lose and heart ache. I was expecting a love story when I started reading this book, but that's not what this story is about. Its about surrendering everything to God and trusting Him unfailingly. I enjoyed reading this book and hope that I may read the other books in this series. I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a calm well written story with a great message.
I received a complimentary copy of this book for review from BookSneeze.
Sounds like something I would like! Thanks.
