I liked this sweet love story. Sydney is a loveable, spunky heroine, characterized by human traits. Good, but only if you don't mind romance. :) (

a few problems on the historic accuracy - mainly around what it means to work hard, and how long it takes to acquire new skills. On the whole those were minor complaints. (

First half was fun but the second half seemed choppy and not well edited. I found myself rereading sentences and paragraphs not understanding the jokes(?) being made- like why did the widow start singing Beautiful Dreamer to one of the cowboys? Also had sone theological ideas I disagree with. (

I enjoyed this quite a bit. I think I found a new favorite Christian historical fiction author.

I have since read several others of hers. It seemed unfortunate that the spiritual content felt lumped more toward the end. The author's other books have a better balance throughout. (

I was disappointed in this book. It acts like a romance but is really all about religion and accepting God into you life. (

Epigraph

Dedication

To Deb Boone,
a cherished friend whose love, encouragement,
and insights make all the difference.
The Bible tells us to seek wise counsel--
and more times than I can count,
your words have been filled with God's truth.
Of the innumerable blessings our Heavenly Father
has bestowed upon me, I count you among the dearest.

First words

Rexall Hume put his hands on the desk and leaned forward, his scowl rivaling a gargoyle's. "You've tested my patience far too long, Lady Hathwell. A year and a day--that's how long I've waited."
