In from the Storms, Book 1

By: Janice Cole Hopkins

Narrated by: Douglas Birk

When her family situation worsens, Aileas Douglas runs away, but she’s unprepared for the Wyoming mountains. A friendly dog leads her to safety, but his master just might pose the most dangerous of all, especially to her heart.

Wounded in the Civil War and deserted by his betrothed, Ian MacGregor becomes a recluse in a remote cabin in Wyoming Territory. He thinks Aileas might be an angel when she appears beside his sickbed, but even later, he’s drawn to her in ways he doesn’t understand.

However, no woman would ever be interested in him now, and he needs to protect himself from another heartbreak, but is this even possible where Aileas is concerned?

I Recommend! A Wonderful Book!

I listened to the audiobook and I loved it. The narrator brought the characters to life for me and the story was wonderful right from the start. There’s a thread of faith here too. I love these stories that takes us back to the old way of living. From a covered wagon to a home and some of the traveling in between. All of it made me want to keep listening. Several times I couldn’t see how the characters were going to get out of the mess they were in. That of course makes an interesting tale. I highly recommend this book.
I received a free audiobook but I was not required to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.

Great story!

I really enjoyed the story! It was interesting, easy to follow, and really kept my attention. I loved the characters. At first, I wasn’t too sure about the narrator. I am more used to female narrators. After a while, it was fine. It struck me as a bit humorous when he was reading her in peril. But he really does do a good job. I listened to it in one day as I worked around the house.
I am going to read more from this author for sure! Very enjoyable!

Christian Historical Romance

I enjoyed this sappy story, and the fight he had finding his worthiness! For such a believer, it was a bit ridiculous his scar affected his self worth so bad, but that was the main thread throughout the whole story!
The narration I did not enjoy. His character voices were silly and a bit like a couple of kids playing dolls. I think he would be better if the voices sounded more realistic. The narrator has promise though. His speech cadence was very good and I was never unsure of who was speaking. I loved his voice when just narrating the story, but not his character voices.

historical romance

Enjoyed the narration to this story. The story was great and love the character growth that happens by the end of the story. The characters have challenges to face and situations to deal with adding some suspense to the story which really kept me listening.
