Can her dreams for the future–and a budding romance–survive the trouble that comes calling?
Larkspur Nielsen is determined to keep her family homestead running and to fulfill their dream of starting a seed catalog, with or without her siblings’ help. With Isaac McTavish back in town, Lark finds herself at odds with her own heart and her determination to shoulder the burden of carrying her responsibilities alone. But Isaac is set on convincing her that he’s here to stay and she doesn’t have to carry everything by herself.
As a new romance blossoms between Lilac and an old schoolmate and the other Nielsen sisters are busy caring for their families, Lark bears more and more responsibility on the farm. When a long-feared threat returns and Lark approaches the breaking point, the life she has always dreamed of is in danger of disappearing forever.
ARC book review
The book reads as a slice of life for the frontier farmer. There is a bit of excitement here and there in the plot of the book, but it reads more as a narrative of daily life–almost like a journal. This doesn’t mean that the plot is too slow, it means that there is more time to delve into the thoughts of the characters and get to know them even better. It’s a fitting wrap up to the series. Lauraine Snelling and Kiersti Giron have done a masterful job with the series and I look forward to see what they come up with next. I highly recommend reading this whole series if you enjoy Christian historical romances.
