Reseñas de la Crítica

"Frantz begins her new Ballantyne Legacy series with a detailed story full of memorable characters." ( RT Book Reviews)

Good story, super annoying narration

I sped up the rate of narration to 1.20 which might have helped with the annoyance of the narrator. I will say this was my second time trying to make it through (love Laura Franz). Last time I gave up. This time I tweaked the speed and think it helped me get past some of my irritation from the narrator. It was worth powering through as it was a great story!

wow wow wow 👌

Love to the story, If I had to use only one word it would be longing. If I was allowed to use more words it would be god restores. At sometimes this book is very painful, But God restores.. Beauty from ashes. Can't wait for the next book, I will start at right now

Clean Romance with Substance 💓

This well written and narrated hstorical romance takes place in Pennsylvania, USA. This book has memorable characters, a touch of mystery and a story that is both heart wrenching and triumphant. It is a clean Christian read that includes true to life events, which I'm sure, some Christians may find unappealing. I applaud the author for allowing these characters to sin and not be perfect. These imperfections enhanced the believability and made for a better story. Yes, bad things happen to good people....and this book shows that although God may allow a bad situation to happen He still holds our hand and guides us through it. I will definitely be getting the next book in this series.

If you enjoy clean romances with substance.......give this one a try. 😉

an epic love story!

An epic story of love strong enough to survive pressure, trials, and evil intentions yet still triumph. Eden is a gentle and kind heroine, and Silas is the best sort of hero with his determination and steadfast character. I will have Silas's strong Scots speech in my head now thanks to the narrator, Angela Brazil.

I can't believe it's taken me so long to read this Frantz novel! Now I can say I've read all of hers.

Great job with this story

I liked the flow of the book, I never wanted to put it down. Laura did a great job!
