    " This is the first of a three book series. Each books concentrates on one of three sisters living in Montana, running a boarding house. Each struggles with a person issue that developed from their past but in the end finds love. It takes place in the mid 1800's. I love historical romance and this deals with frontier living during the development of the railroad out west. "

    " This is the first book I have read from Tracie Peterson. I was looking for a romantic book that was clean. I found that plus more, a book that has Christina values and mentions Jesus as our Savior. Something I know that if my child picked up I wouldn't be afraid that she would read it. "

    " What a fun new author to explore! My friend, Chrissy Young, passed this book on to me and I loved it. It was fun to get all "giddy" about the book with Chrissy, which we haven't done for a while. I enjoyed the setting (Montana), history (pre-railroad), characters (yes, there is development!) and romance. It was fun! "

    " Yawn. I found myself skimming most of this book. This author is a little more heavy-handed on Christianity than some other authors, so some readers might not like that. I don't think I will be reading any more from the author. "

    " This is book 1 of 3. I loved how each book is narrated by a different sister. While you have a good idea of how each book will end, you are very uncertain of what will happen in the middle. I went from one book to the next and would read them again. "
