Marty’s Ride by Mary Davis
Marty the tomboy. If there was one girl that could take care of herself it was Marty and this put a wedge into her relationship with God. Reece had never met a woman like Marty. She was unconventional and that was what attracted him to her.
She was firece and when his path and Recce crossed and she had to protect and stand up for her nieces, she did it without reservations. Through the journey they made she learnt to let go of her childhood hurt and trust God to take care of her.
Reece was an honorable man and sort to fix his wrongs. When he was sent to Montana by a client he didn’t know he was fighting on the wrong side until he met Marty and together they helped each other.
I loved reading about the lenghts he went through to help Marty realize she could love him and they could have have a shot at being together. I loved reading about how he didn’t try to change her but loved her uniqueness.
I loved reading about Marty because she was bold and courageous and went after what she wanted.

Ewan and Rosalind.
Rosey-mine as her father called her was sweet and committed to her family. Her maturity was very remarkable and something I wish young girls of now would have. The ability to discern good and right with the help of God. That’s one of the beautiful things I loved about Rose, she loved to pray and ask for wisdom before she did anything especially when it was difficult. She could be serious minded some times and her friend who is full of life Marlene was always there to remind her to loosen up and enjoy her youth. They were delightful girls to read about especially when the men they loved came to court them. I loved reading about how together they started a business and were able to maintain it and maintain their reputation also.
The serious Ewan! I love reading about how keen he was to protect Rose and respectful of family. Family meant a lot to him especially not been separated from your kin.
Even though loss weighed heavily in thier hearts they found joy in God
Beyond Today by Tracie Peterson.
Two sisters in fact twins in love with the same man. Well, at least Amy was. She’s the calm one of the twins but her sister Angie had dreams to live in the city and be a city girl while Amy was the hardworking home girl.
Then came the Pastor Tyler.
It was beautiful to see how the story turned out and who got the Pastor.
One profound lesson I learnt from this book is to take one day at a time.
Favorite quote from Amy
” I want whatever God wants for me. I’m not always patient but I know his promises are rich. I do not want to miss out on a single one of his gifts.
Myles From Anywhere by Jill Strengl
Myles was running away from a lot of things and people until he met Beulah.
The hot headed, quickest tempered Beulah.
I enjoyed reading about how each of them got to accept God’s love and change.
This was a beautiful story of love, forgiveness and second chances.
A beautiful book filled with allowing God take over the reins of our life.
Letters From The Enemy. By Susan May Warren.
Lilly and Heinrick!! The hurdles they had to cross.
I loved reading about their meetings of bumping into each other.
Lilly was stocked up in her world of self-righteousness until she learnt better.
Heinrick, treated like the enemy.
This story is an eye opener into the pains of our world and we should live and treat others as children of God.
I received a copy of the is book for my honest opinion. All opinions expressed here are mine.

This was probably the most exciting and wonderful book I’ve read in a very long time. Besides being centered around God, the story proves how your heart matters more than people’s opinions of you, or how you dress, or how you act. It was very beautifully written and extremely exciting.and emotional!

A touching story of love and loss just like Ecclesiastes 3 portrays. The new railroad line comes to the small town of Saddleback, Montana and with it, a couple of blacksmiths! Will they help build up the snall town, or will their presence bring unexpected dangers?

A bit more tension and suspense than I’m used to but, a delightful book outside of that section! These twins couldn’t be more opposite! I was a bit surprised at the timing of the first kiss, and how fast the romance went with him being gone so much with the circuit preaching work. I think they got engaged after only a few visits. Talk about a whirlwind romance! But when God tells you who your future will be with, why wait?
