This is the third book I have read by Lauraine and while she is a very good writer, I don't feel as though she completes the stories in her novels. Perhaps I am just spoiled to most Christian romance writers in that at the end of the book, the guy always gets the girl and they "live happily ever after". Not so with Snelling's books. She leaves you hanging - wondering which guy is going get the girl. And while she usually finishes the story in the next book, it's always from another character's point of view. I find it just a bit disappointing. However, her writing is tremendously good! You feel as though you are really there. She puts words together in amazing ways, making your mind picture everything. She seems to be able to make even the most mundane task seem interesting to read about. I suppose this is why I continue to pick up her books again and again.
This book follows the story of Opal, a young woman who would rather be on a horse than anywhere else in the world. The story opens with her making a mistake, just one tiny mistake and it will cost her far more than she could ever imagine. She will never forgive herself for what her mistake has cost her best friend, Atticus and others to follow. Opal grows in this books from a young girl bent on womanhood to a young lady. She learns to forgive herself and others and to really trust God for His direction and leading.
Jacob Chandler. Another man who made a mistake, just one, and is also paying for it. However his cost is far different than Opal's. Jacob also is on the road searching for forgiveness and the grace of God.
Each on the road for their own life's battles. Follow them and learn.
