Deborah Raney has woven an intriguing tale… Her characters breathe life as they struggle with deep, heartfelt needs. What I loved most was the message that hidden sins and a painful past cannot be stuffed away and forgotten without the cleansing power of God’s forgiveness. —an amazon.com reviewer

Loved this story
Great author read any book she writes
Must be one of her earlier books, because it didn’t measure up.
I loved the book! It kept moving and kept your interest. Inspiring, hard to put down.
While there were a few predictable things, the story had some surprises as well. It was well written, and I loved the characters of Kitty and her grandmother.
Forgot that I had read it so it couldn’t have been outstanding. But I did finish it so it must have had something to offer.
The characters continue to grow and you read through the book. The story line may cause you to cry and a little mystery is also involved. Very entertaining and the story line keeps you interested in finding out what happens next and the decisions the characters will make.
This is a sweet book with some tragic events. There were surprises and some good clean romance. Not a big, dramatic book and sometimes a little slow, but if you’re not in a hurry settle back and enjoy the sleepy little town of Hanover and its good down to earth folk. Yellowrose
