Unexpected Surprise!
- By Avid Amazon Customer on 11-10-20
By: Kim Vogel Sawyer
Publisher's summary
If any place on God's earth was designed to help one heal, it is Meadowland. Surely here, at her brother-in-law's Kentucky farm, Rose and her daughters can recover from the events of the recent past—the loss of her husband during the 1918 influenza epidemic, her struggle with tuberculosis that required a stay at a sanatorium, and her girls' experience in an orphanage during her illness. At Meadowland, hope blooms as their past troubles become rich soil in which their faith can grow.
Dirk Meadows may have opened his home to his late brother's widow and her girls, but he keeps his heart tightly closed. The roots of his pain run deep, and the evidence of it is written across his face. Badly scarred by a fire and abandoned by the woman he loved, Dirk fiercely guards his heart from being hurt again. But it may be that his visitors will bring light back into his world and unlock the secret to true healing.
Bestselling author Ann H. Gabhart explores the tender places within the human heart in this character-driven story of trusting God to turn our burdens into something beautiful.

Emotional wounds aren't always apparent, and those that haunt Marika and Rhiannon are deep and lasting. On the surface, Marika appears to be a wealthy, successful lawyer, while Rhiannon is a reclusive, maladjusted loner. But Marika, in her own way, is as damaged as the younger Rhiannon. When circumstances throw them together one summer, they begin to reach out, each finding unexpected strengths in the other.

Good from beginning to end?
This beautiful story kept my attention all the way through. Such complex and beautiful characters with trusting God at the center. One of my absolute favorites. Have heard Kate Forbes on many narrations, and she is amazing. One of the best. I plan on following this author, from now on, and listening to all her books.

Great read
This is my first book by AH Gabhart. I didn't know really what to expect. This was not it. I really liked this audiobook, but I'll tell you that the first part of this book is heart wrenching. Rose is separated from her girls and I can't imagine how that would feel. She's in a sanitorium for TB. Her girls are in an orphanage and are severely mistreated....through this all, both mom and girls have faith. I did love that. Enter uncle Dirk who swoops in and saves everyone. After they move to Meadowland things are revealed and hearts are healed. Highly recommend this book. I'll look for more by this author.
