Dreams Rekindled

By Amanda Cabot

MY REVIEW

Such a wonderful historical novel. I really enjoy Amanda Cabot’s historicals. This series has a great set of characters. I really like the main characters and the secondary characters in this story.

It’s a lovely historically complete with a mystery! I really like that added element to the story. The characters themselves kept me vested in the story, but the storyline itself is a strong one. I love the character growth that takes place in this novel. Several of the characters have growing to do, and I love how the author uses the circumstances to bring about the growth. 

I connected very well with Dorothy. I never intended to marry. I thought that was God’s will for my life for several reasons, but God brought someone into my life that made it evident I had been wrong. Sometimes we have ideas of what our life should be, but choosing the path God wants is always the best choice.

I really enjoyed the storyline and the characters, but this novel got a full four stars because of the lovely faith theme that permeated this book. It was a beautiful faith theme and a strong one. Don’t miss out on this series. I’m loving it! 

I received this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

Out of the Embers

MY THOUGHTS

This was an enjoyable prairie type story with suspense on the side. I really fell in love with the characters, especially Polly. Evelyn is a wonderful heroine with flaws, but with a heart full of love. The story has a wonderful plot with a surprise near the end. The suspense really adds to the appeal of the sweet story.

It’s a wonderful plot line, though pretty predictable, the story is hard to put down. I enjoyed getting to know the main male character,Wyatt as well as a host of terrific secondary characters in the town.

This was another one with a nice faith theme woven through the story…a story of hope and forgiveness. The main characters had rough childhoods, but the circumstances were used to create strong and stubborn personalities. Ones that knew how to survive. People that knew their life stories were written by God.

I look forward to getting to know Mesquite Springs and it’s citizens better as the series progresses.
