    A mother who cannot face her future.... A daughter who cannot escape her past. Lady Elisabeth Kerr is a keeper of secrets. A Highlander by birth and a Lowlander by marriage, she honors the auld ways, even as doubts and fears stir deep within her.

    Her husband, Lord Donald, has secrets of his own, well hidden from the household, yet whispered among the town gossips.

    Ms Higgs has one of the best narrators voices I have heard yet and I listen to many audio books. She has done a fine job in both the writing and the narration. Thank you Liz

    Stepping from a battered coach on a rainy April eve, newly widowed Elisabeth Kerr must begin again, without husband or title, property or fortune. She is unafraid of work and gifted with a needle, but how will she stitch together the tattered remnants of her life? And who will mend her heart, torn asunder by betrayal and deception? Elisabeth has not come to Selkirk alone. Her mother-in-law, Marjory Kerr, is a woman undone, having buried her husband, her sons, and any promise of grandchildren....

    I loved this story. It was everything I hope for in an audiobook. This is only my 2nd Terri Blackstock book and I look forward to listening to more of them. The readers voice was very pleasant but the only complaint is that her reading was not the best. It was a bit choppy--not smooth.

    When Joy Came to Stay illustrates the miraculous power of faith to overcome even the most debilitating suffering. Maggie Stovall has a successful career and a happy marriage, but she also bears the crippling weight of a secret from her past. As she slips farther and farther into depression, her only hope lies in God's loving forgiveness.

    I wish I would have listened to it with my husband because he would have really liked it too. Kept my interest all the way through---was a bit predictable but I really liked it.

    Not the best book I have ever read but worth the read--or listening time. It was a good listen on a road trip and made the time go fast. I would recommend it to others

    An FBI undercover operation gone bad convinces Rae Gabriella to move near her hometown and work as a private investigator with another former agent. But the small town of Justice, Illinois, is not as safe as she thinks. Attractive and stylish young women, just like Rae, are quietly dropping dead in their hotel rooms, with money and valuables still untouched. When the next victim turns up just a few rooms away from Rae's hotel room, the grieving parents hire her to investigate.

    Story

    The story line was good and interesting and we enjoyed listening to it but the end was weird --like the author just got tired of writing and ended it before anything was resolved. So it left us very unsatisfied. For me if the end is bad the book is not worth my time so I would not recommend it.

    Story

    Francine Rivers is an amazing writer and the story had me captivated until the end. I realize she was trying to depict reality back then but it was to harsh for us who live in the 21st century. It was gruesome is several spots. Yes I admit that I live a very sheltered life in a safe place so it is good for me to see what these Jews and Christians endured in the early years of the church but I did not need it to be a graphic as it was here.
    I spent more then 20 hours listening to this book and hearing the little slave girl go through countless trials. I got so caught up in the characters and they became real to me--always the sign of a good writer---BUT
    ((DON"T READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU WANT TO BE SURPRISED BY THE ENDING) As a Christian I have found in life that God uses all things for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. Even in times when evil seems to reign God uses it for good. However I felt that the author did not balance the good with the evil. Then the evil won in the end--on almost all fronts. There was some good that resulted but precious little compared to the sacrifice that was made. It would have been much easier to take the sacrifice of a beautiful young woman had it resulted in the salvation of those she had prayed so vehemently for.
    I also thought that she did not really give a clear understanding of what Christ did. It was not explained well. So I would definitely NOT recommend this book.
