Publisher Description

In this third book in the Prairie Legacy Series, Virginia dreams that having a home of her own will surely satisfy the longings of her heart. But when the storms in her life test the depths of her heart and faith, where will she turn?

Through the years, Virginia Simpson had learned that Grandma Marty's wisdom was right. When God allows something to be taken from you, He replaces it with something better. The long-awaited return of Jonathan and their renewed courtship, with a wedding soon to follow, are proof of God's loving ways. But the inner strength that God has been forming in Virginia's life through trials and disappointments is far from complete.

Married life isn't quite what Virginia expected, and when an old friend presents a surprising choice for the couple, Virginia must decide from whom to draw her strength.

"The author wrote this book to show how hard it was to start a family. Also to start a farm. Also to show that their faith in God helped them get though their problems and to show that God will help us get though our problems today."

— Caroline (5 out of 5 stars)
