An easy book to listen to!

This story comes to life with the narration. It captures realistic struggles of life and provides a satisfying end.

Inspiring Story!

This audiobook tells a very inspirational story of a resilient young lady named Eli. She is a mother and a wife who has gone through tremendous agony and pain but has overcome them with love and grace and has found her way while creating a new life for her and her son. The narrator really brought the characters to life with the different tones in their voices,

Hopefully, there is a continuation of this story unfolding Eli's new life,

Moving Story

This was a very emotional story. What war can do to men, how it affects their wives and loved ones, the pains caused by class distinction, etc. It's not an easy book to read in places, but God answers prayer and can work things out for his glory. He is faithful to those who trust Him even when all seems lost. The historical setting during the Civil War brought to mind the horrible cost it required. There is romance in the story as well that illustrates how beautiful a patient love can be. Truly a wonderful book!

The narration was good; done with feeling that well depicted the emotions of the characters.

Pure Read provided this book to me and I am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

A fantastic story!

The author really brings the characters to life in this emotional and exciting story. It shows the true heartbreak of what war can do to a man and a relationship.
There are unexpected curves in the story that will keep you on the edge of your seat. You will not be able to stop listening!
This book is a must have, I recommend it to everyone!

Enthralling!

This gripping story had me listening from cover to cover without stopping. It is a wonderful romance set way back at the end of the war and featured a young wife whose life had handed her lemons. The plot was an interesting one with riveting twists and turns. I couldn't help wondering what I would have done if I had found myself in the same situation as this woman. Wonderful story ! I will look out for the other books in the series as the writer has me hooked. The narrator was great too!

Enjoyed the narration

The only reason I finished the book was for the great narration. I especially liked her interpretation of the villain of the story. Her voice brought more life to the characters than the writer. Story was predictable and honestly awful at one point. The characters were weak and unrelatable. The main character was especially weak in development and relatability. Bottom line, I have a very hard time believing the fallacy of a Christian wife as a doormat and whipping post.
