Love Finds You in Lonesome Prairie Montana by Tricia Goyer & Ocieanna Fleiss
LOVE FINDS YOU IN LONESOME PRAIRIE MONTANA, part of the Love
finds you series, was a sweet story with a sweet heroine.Julia Cavanaugh finds herself accompanying
the orphan girls she has raised as they find new homes and new families in the
West.Once arriving in Lonesome Prairie,
Julia finds not only has Mrs. Hamlin, the mistress she works for, arranged for
the placement of these orphans, but she has also taken it upon herself to arrange
for Julia to marry a local miner.Julia
is aghast at the idea and does all she can to stop the Horace's pursuing ways while
struggling with leaving her little ones in the care of others.But soon, Julia finds that Lonesome Prairie
isn't that bad . . . either is Parson Ike.She struggles with her infatuation for a man that shows no interested in
her at all.But somehow, it is him who
fills her daydreams.
Parson Ike, or Isaac has more than noticed Julia, but has
vowed to stay single so he can continue to put all his efforts in his position
as a circuit riding pastor.He's made
his mind up to remain single, but is having a hard time convincing his heart.
LOVE FINDS YOU IN LONESOME PRAIRIE MONTANA, is a simple
story of love, family, sacrifice, and devotion.It's a quiet story in that there are no rustlers, shootouts, or high drama
at every turn.Though the outcome of Mabelina's
trial brings some suspense, the rest of the story seems to unfold at a carefree
pace.I am not a fan of love story's
that keep the hero and heroine apart for the majority of the story.True, absences makes the heart grow fonder,
but I would prefer to see these characters discover and develop a relationship
with each other in something other than their thoughts and dreams.♥
