Publisher's summary

One final cry - "God almighty, help us!" - and suddenly Hannah's world shifted violently, and a blinding collision scattered her mind and shook her bones. Then came the pain, the freezing water, and a hand reached for hers before all faded into darkness.

When Hannah awakes in a warm and welcoming room she has never seen before - tended to by kind, unfamiliar faces - most of her memory has been swept away but not all. She recalls fragments of the accident. She remembers a baby. And a ring on her finger reminds her of a lie. But most of all, there is a secret. And in this house of strangers, she can trust no one but herself to keep it.

wonderful!<br />

Julie Klassen has a way of transporting her readers into the times, feelings and emotions of her stories. this book was no different. I looked forward to this release for several months, and it was well woth the wait! I loved it!

we're sexual description needed?

I love the story but did have sexual graphics.some things are hard to believe happen in that time period.

Maybe I like this!

I found this book difficult to get into. About a quarter of the way in, I read the reviews. Seems like people either really liked it or didn't . I decided to stick to it and I'm glad I did. It has interesting twists and kept me guessing all the way to the end and it ended the way I hoped! As for the "steamy" parts that some reviewers didn't like, I didn't think they are were bad at all. I thought the narrator did a pretty good job but she really didn't need to lower her voice so much for the male characters. I will definitely get more books by this author.

Absolutely incredible

I have listened to so many romances over the years that finding a great book becomes harder and harder. Julie Klassen does an incredible job with this storyline. I truly could NOT put this audio down. So much excitement, love and all without introducing gratuitous sex or vulgarity. Not that I mind either in the right type of story. I adored reading this book and will download more books by JK.

Toe tapping with boredom.

I admit I'm just under two hours into it. At least that's what the counter says... did I fall asleep? I'm still waiting for a actual story to begin.... something..... please.....
Nevermind, I'm not going to be able to get through it since I'm already too bored!

NARRATOR: It's not HER fault, she's very good!

Basically a retelling of Lady of milkweed manor

I read the reviews for this book and one of my friends also said it was horrible.

The reviews found it shocking and a disappointing departure from what Klassen usually writes.

Potential spoilers

Honestly I was ready for some biology lesson sex scene that would prompt me to shut the book off. It wasn’t that. It was in the vein of the scene in LOMM. Stormy night, lonely people, passionate kisses, and description of undressing. Meh. Deanne Gist, Francine Rivers, Julie Lessman, and Marylu Tyndall can push the envelope just as far.

Other complaints said the Christian message was watered down. I didn’t see it that way. Themes of forgiveness and redemption were touched on repeatedly.

Not my favorite Klassen book by far, but I’d say it’s actually better LOMM because the redemption idea comes full circle. Yes, there’s adultery, illegitimate children, and lies but that’s a common device Klassen uses and is common to the genre.

If the book is counter to your convictions I’m not going to criticize, but I had to add my two cents.

Different, just as wonderful!

This one may be my favorite so far. I am OBSESSED with all things Julie Klassen.

From the story to the reading, I couldn’t put this one down.

Great story with twists and turns that I didn’t expect!

MUST read.

Good Story

This story is set in a "period" situation in a gentleman's family and was well written as well as beautifully narrated (I would love to hear more stories read by this narrator). I usually can guess a turn of events but a few things took me by surprise, which is a good thing. I always appreciate that Julie Klassen's stories are not predictable "cookie cutter" plots.

Read it

Listening to this started out ponderous but I continued and I glad that I did.

Sir John deserved better.

Sir John deserved better than a wishy washy girl who could not make up her mind to choose him until the end and even then she first lusted after another man... my opinion is Hannah was a week character who didn't deserve the happy ending she deserved. She couldn't afford to let any of her options go... disgusting, even if it's a unpopular opinion.
