Unexpected

Oliver Hartsell had no idea that when he went to repair Mr. Austin's windows he'd end up proposing to the man's daughter, but that's exactly what happened. He didn't regret it because he’d been secretly in love with Marie for a long time.

However, he doubts she feels the same way about him, but he's determined that she will. Yet, life has a way of throwing unexpected surprises. Set in 1961 in small-town America, this is historical fiction at its best.

Inspirational and Encouraging

This was a delightful book. The characters are wonderful and realistic. It is full of examples of love and forgiveness that inspire and encourage. It shows the healing and joy that love can bring. But it also illustrates how difficult circumstances can still test love. Oliver and Maria journey over a rough road to learn to truly forgive and love. And as always with this author the story is sweet and clean.

The narrator was pretty good. I didn't think the voices fit the characters in some cases, especially Oliver. But overall it wasn't bad to listen to.

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

Love!

He loved her before she did him, but God brought them together! I think that he may have never asked her if it weren't too save her as he was so shy/reserved. He did though! She still had to work through her stuff, but she did! Great story!!

Wonderful

Loved this journey from a marriage of convenience to the beginning of a lifetime of love!!

Another great book

I really enjoyed this book!! I wasn’t too keen on the narrator, but the story itself was very good and intriguing

Unexpected
