Trusting Grace by Maggie Brendan

Here is the book summary:

All of her life, Grace Bidwell has longed for a loving husband and children, but now the chances of her dreams coming true are looking slim. Widowed and caring for her elderly father, she struggles to maintain her late husband's ranch, until she places an ad for a hired hand.

Robert Frasier arrives in town with three pitiful, bedraggled children who have nothing but the tattered clothes on their backs and a load of hurt, pride, and anger. Believing this is divine intervention in her life, Grace welcomes them with open arms. As feelings grow between her and Robert, Grace will have to convince him that she is a woman who can be trusted with his heart.

Readers will be swept away into 1860s Montana's lush Gallatin Valley, nestled among towering mountains and proud pines, in this emotional conclusion to the Virtues and Vices of the Old West series.

And now, my review:

The main character, widow Grace, in this book is a delightful person to follow throughout this story.  She has a town friend that is named Ginny and owns a potato farm with her father.  Her father is ill and so her friend, Ginny, advises her to put up a sign looking for help.  The person who responds to the ad is a widower who has inherited 3 children from his wife.  He didn’t know of the children when marrying this lady and thus he has issues with trust.  Can love come out of this situation?  That is the intriguing read of this one. 

I really enjoyed this book.  I felt that it moved quickly and the characters were well developed and believable.  I loved the children coming into Grace’s life after longing for children to love her whole life.  And I loved the road the father traveled and the outcome of that.  What an unexpected turn of events.  You’ll want to check this one out.  Pick up your copy with the links I’ve posted below and happy reading.

I’ve received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
