Good story line

I would like to see more development of the story line very good basic short story.

Sweet Love Story

This book about Lance and Fiona is not only a sweet love story, but laced with adventure. Lance has answered the ad Fiona put in the papers for a foreman for her farm. Everything was working out not only on the farm but with the growing relationship between the two. Lance's little boy was settling in and Fiona fell in love with him quickly. But Lance did not realize they had hired a man who was trying to take the farm from Fiona. God works in wonderful ways as the story progresses. This is a very enjoyable book. Sweet and clean.

The narrator is good and brings the characters to life.

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

Great book

I listened to this one on audio. The narrator did a great job in bringing this book to life. Barbara Goss brings you a great book with suspense, romance, and the unexpected. The characters are well-written and well-thought-out. Listen or read, you won't regret it.

Learning Trust

Listening to the audiobook of this story was a pleasure. Narrator was good and loved the characters and storyline. Fiona just lost her Father and she is all alone. How will she survive and run the farm. After speaking to her Pastor, she decided to run an ad for a foreman. This will allow her to keep the farm going and not have to leave the only home she has known. After several replies, she selects Lance. Things are strange in the beginning, as a woman alone, but she takes a quick interest in Lance’s son. Just when things are looking up, the boy disappears and so does one of the workers. What will happen now? If I say anything else, it would spoil the story, so go ahead and get a copy of the book to read. You won’t regret it.
I was given a copy of the book by the author for an honest review.

I liked the story overall

The story of Fiona and Lance is one of two people learning to trust each other. Her half-brother Al returns to town but doesn't make his name known until the end of the story. I didn't understand the part where he was not held accountable for his crimes, but it was nice to know that he decided to dedicate his life to Christ. The narrator did a nice job with the older male voices, but I thought the voices for Fiona and Lance's son were not as well done.
