Another winner from Cathy Marie Hake. She is now, along with DeeAnne Gist, among my absolute favorite Christian fiction authors. The character Ruth was the perfect example of sweetness and imperfection--someone that you'd want for your best friend if she could walk out of the pages of the book.

This won't be considered helpful, but it is. This book is horrible. I bought it because I like the cover, it costed only $4 and the reviews on the back. At first it was engaging, but then the book lacked plot and the character and the story were really dry. Overall, it was a waste of my time and money. I DON"T recommend this book it was horribly written.

This is the first book I have read by Cathy Marie Hake - was I ever surprised! This was an absolute excellent read. I have definitely found another "favorite" author and will look for more of her books as they come out.
In this book, Ruth has such a hard time - nothing she does seems to be right. She gets herself into so many precarious situations, and the outcomes are hilarious. This book kept me riveted to the pages from cover-to-cover. I think my husband thought I had lost my mind when I would all of a sudden start laughing out loud while reading. It just couldn't be helped! This book is just full of fun; excellently written.
The book begins in Jefferson City, Missouri in the year 1859, includes St. Louis, Missouri, and moves on by stagecoach to Folsum, California to the Broken P Ranch (where Ruth meets Josh McCain). And the fun is just beginning...!

This was a wonderful book about a girl that didn't fit in, in her world then her mom died and she went to her father only to find that he had died before she meant him. It's a great story I had a hard time putting it down, I can't wait for this author to write more books I will be sure to read them. Theresa

This book was very engaging. The main character is encouraged to be who God made her to be, rather than who she thinks she SHOULD be. Interesting plot and wonderful characters! Great historical inspirational romance!
