"Excellent! But ended a little too quickly."
— Pat (4 out of 5 stars)
“Sawyer’s strong young women are willing to take risks and become mentors to those less fortunate. Set in a breathtaking Alaskan territory, this story of friendship, trust and a true desire to minister gives the reader an eyewitness look at how demonstrating the love of God can work miracles.”
— Romantic Times“Sawyer's evangelical Christian frontier romance, set in 1898, provides a wealth of historical detail, showcasing the best of the missionaries' intentions and behavior while contrasting their expectations and native peoples' beliefs, all sympathetically presented.”
— Booklist" The ending wrapped up a bit too quickly and neatly for me...didn't really even need the last chapter. But on the whole, a good read! "
— Rachel, 11/23/2013" I enjoyed it but when they wrapped up the book by fast forwarding 2 years, that kind of blew it for me. I took a star off for that. "
— Joanne, 8/30/2013" Another excellent book by Kim Vogel Sawyer "
— Lisa, 5/13/2013" I enjoy reading Kim Vogel Sawyer; however, this title didn't hold my attention as much as others. I'm not sure why, but it is still a good book. "
— Rachel, 5/11/2013" Good, but in spite of subject matter that would normally hold my interest, it wasn't as fascinating as I thought it might be. I didn't quite manage to finish it. Beautiful cover, though. "
— Jess, 2/2/2013" A wonderful read that takes place on the Alaskan frontier. The weak verb construction pulled me out of the story regularly, but if you don't take that into account, I can recommend this book. "
— Carol, 1/23/2013" Not bad. It was a good quick read. I loved the setting. I've never been to Alaska but it sounds beautiful. It did feel like the story needed something. Sawyer's books always seem like they need a little more kick. But it was clean and romantic. "
— Elizabeth, 11/21/2012" Vivid detail, unexpected twists and turns, and good characters add up to a heartwarming story. "
— June, 6/3/2012" started out really good and then kinda fell flat in the middle was real bored then just ended leaving you wondering how things fell into place. "
