Critic reviews

"This is an entertaining and engaging faith-based tale sure to hit best-seller lists and the awards circuit.” ( Publishers Weekly)

I enjoyed the story and how it was easy to follow.

Great book that really hit home as I feel I am searching for God's purpose in my life this book glides easily through 4 generations of women finding their purpose in what God would have them do. Loved the book!

Not her best yet worth it!

Lynn Austin seems to be one of my favorite authors. The story line is fair bordering good with one surprising turn. I could easily predict most of it. I do enjoy her character developments. The reader projected a harshness to some characters that made them too dramatic & pretentious. Other than that a read that I followed to the end. I usually give a book 100 pages before I give up & I followed this one to the conclusion.

Excellent!

I enjoyed this story so much that I want to get a paper copy for my small library. There are many lessons a person can take away from this entertaining and enlightening story.

My favorite book of Lynn Austin

I loved the way that this book teaches us about God’s word in a story about a fictional family. How we too can apply God’s will for our lives. Very inspiring!

Fabulous book!

I loved this historical fiction novel telling the story of women through history learning life lessons that still apply today. It was thought provoking and hard to turn off until the very end. Lynn Austin never disappoints
