"She did say her prayers every night when she wasn't too tired, but had she ever considered the Lord's will in her life? Was it his will that she be here in the mountains beside this woman who knew what to weed out and what to let grow? Would it be too wrong to ask her how she knew what was the Lord's will and what wasn't?" I love this passage that perfectly sums up the theme of this book. With an old flame, a love triangle, and a wandering spirit, this book presents so many life experiences of fluctuation. The reader follows along as Piper, Truda, and Jamie learn to trust their hearts and believe that the Lord will lead them down the right path.

Hope, faith, and love abound as lives converge in the Appalachian Mountains. Reminiscent of Call The Midwife, Mrs. Breckinridge’s nurses and courier service in Appalachia are inspiring.
I connected with these young ladies as they stepped out of their comfort zones to do something bigger than themselves. I loved the rawness and authenticity of the mountain people. The characters were well written and stepped right out of the pages of the book.
Truda and Piper have pushed against the constraints of society. In the mountains they must both face what they learn about themselves. Will they decide to follow expectations or follow their hearts?
I was given a copy of this book courtesy of Baker Publishing House by Interviews and Reviews through NetGalley.
I recommend this book.
