The next christian romance novel you should read! After coming to the British Columbia settlement in North America, Arabella is faced with choosing a husband from among the numerous single men. Since she fled from an abusive relationship, she is worried about trusting again. Peter Kelly has left behind a life of rebellious living and is ready to do what is right. Can they fall in love across different social classes and change their new world into something beautiful?The way Hedlund handles love in this book is nothing short of amazing. The passion and tension she writes about between the characters is realistic for two people falling in love. She does not shy away from developing healthy sexual feelings alongside the emotional connection between the two characters who may be husband and wife in the future. As some christian fiction shies away from such topics, Hedlund faces it head on and brings glory to God in the process as God is the one who created all things including sex. Along with this, I also enjoyed how the plot gives flashbacks at just the right times to develop the story. This is a perfect addition to the first in book in the bride ship series, and it was nice seeing characters again that we met in the first book. This book also further developed what life was like in the settlement in British Columbia. I look forward to reading the other two books in the series and will continue to read any books from Jody Hedlund.
(I received this as a free ebook from netgalley.com in exchange for an honest review.)
