You can always count on a great story by Rosanne Bittner! This story finds you on the Nebraska Plains in the 1870s. Jude Kingman is part of the wealthy family who owns the railroad. He has been sent there to tell the settlers that they either need to pay what they are asking for their land or they have to get off. Jude is not as ruthless as the rest of his family. He knows he has to do this but he is trying to make it as painless as possible and even gave the settlers until after harvest. While down there, he meets Ingrid Svensson. She is about the only one who is not hostile toward him. She knows it's just his job and they become friends. Gradually feelings on both sides begin to change but they decide that He being so wealthy and she begin poor it would never work. Yet each are lost without each other. They can't put the other out of their mind. Will they ever be able to work out that difference? Ingrid was considering marrying another man to help save at least one of their farms. Will she go through with that? This is a really good story and kept me turning pages. It's a keeper for my shelf.
This was my first book by this author but will NOT be my last. The impossible scenerio develops, complete with suspense, family love and family hate, two worlds meet, collide and then what? When a plain farmer girl raising her younger brother meets one of the most powerful railroad men who is bent on the destruction of all she holds dear, will her Christian faith be enough to get her through?A definite page turner clear to the last sentence....more, more, more..please
This author never lets me down. All of her books are wonderful, page turners and this one is no exception.
Follow Your Heart is one of the best inspirational Christian books I've ever read. Rosanne Bittner is the best historical writer, ever. This book is so touching and moving that I made need to read it again. Forgiveness and Love are both priceless gifts from God. She hit this one out of the park.
I never mind a little religion in a book but this was too much. This book was not the usual Bittner story. I hope she's not changing the style of her previous books. I want the old Bittner back. This was the type of book you can read in a Sunday school class. The love story with good but bland, with maybe two kisses all totaled. This book was a disappointment from one of my favorite authors. Bring the old Bittner back.
Excellent book about tough times long ago. Every woman should read this book. Gives us hope through live's rough times. A book work our time and effort. Hard to put down.
This was also a good read. It was very warm and pleasant. Not too long. The plot was good. I really enjoyed the reading.
Rosanne did it again. I finish a book and think that one was her best then here comes another. Great book.
