Here is the book summary:
Will trust be the winning ticket to mending two
wounded hearts?
The 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition is taking place in Seattle with
participants from all over the world when Lizzie Clark accepts a position at an
orphanage in the city. After suffering heartbreak and loss, she is determined
to make a life for herself independently.
Jack Butler’s mother abandoned their family when he was a young
boy. Loyalty to his father cost him fulfilling his own aspirations, so Jack
strives to take their family farm in a new direction.
A newborn is left at the orphanage with a note asking Lizzie to
take care of him. Why did the woman abandon her child? And why is Jack, a
handsome local farmer so interested in helping Lizzie search for the infant’s
mother?
When shocking revelations disrupt their plans, Lizzie and Jack
are faced with life-changing decisions. Will they open their hearts to trusting
again?
This story was inspired by events that took place at the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Expo—Seattle’s first world’s fair.
And now, my review:
I found With a Trusting Heart by Dawn Kinzer to be a swift
and pleasurable read. It was based on a long-ago time and she really put feet
to the atmosphere of this historical event.
There are things that happened back in the day that truly saddens me to
read about. Raffling away of precious
life is a heartbreaking scenario. The love between the two main characters quickly
developed. The romance was fun to watch unfold. All of the characters in this story were very
believable.
I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange
for my honest review.
