Resumen del Editor

When Dana Field’s father died, leaving her all alone, she talked the new farmer in the area and his mother into letting her work on their farm. He needed the help, she needed to stay busy, and her cake baking didn’t fill enough of her time. However, many of the townspeople didn’t think it was a proper task for an unmarried woman. Then the vandalism started and escalated.

Was it directed against the Polish family she worked for or her, and could it be one of the men who suddenly wanted to court her?

Highly recommend. Janice Cole Hopkins weaves a beautiful story of hope, kindness, forgiveness, and love. She has become one of my favorites, as the stories are uplifting.

Sweet, Inspirational Romance

I really enjoyed this story. It has great characters and covers some of the prejudice immigrants faced when coming to this country.
The narrator did a good job bringing the story to life.

Another great book

Another well written book by JCH. So many twists, just when you think you have it figured out. Never saw the ending coming. A very sweet, clean romance yet also very intriguing. Definitely worth the read.

Sweet and Clean Romance

Dana couldn't make ends meet with just baking cakes after her father died. She decided to ask a new farmer in town if she could work on his farm that had belonged to her family. Even though his mother was there, there were people in town that didn't think it proper. But even more than propriety they were appalled that she would work for a Polish man. That's when the mystery began. Ms. Hopkins skillfully handled the topic of race and the bias against someone because of his race. And as always she has written another sweet romance. I loved this book!

The narration was good and made the listening easy.

I requested this audiobook from the author and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

A Great Story!

What a great story! The narrator did a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life.
This book touched on grief, forgiveness and being prejudice against people from different parts of the world. There was something going on all the time and I didn’t get bored I can tell you. I loved Dana’s story and how she dealt with her suitors. Wondering which man she would choose and who was doing the mean things kept me in suspense. I was surprised toward the end to find out who the culprit was. Try this good clean historical romance.
I received an audio copy of this book by the author but was not required to leave a positive review. All opinions are my own.

Simple story with important topics

I found the narrator very pleasant to listen to as she changed her voice for the different characters. The story between Dana and Leon was nicely written. I liked the way Janice Cole Hopkins covered prejudice against "foreigners" by people whose families were probably foreigners themselves not that many years before. It's important to remember to practice kindness in all situations, and I think the author did a fine job of getting the message across.

Great book
