Publisher Description

Cathy Marie Hake, best-selling author of Fancy Pants, delivers a poignant romance set in 1891 Texas. Miss Hope Ladley believes God wants her to cook and clean for grieving widower Jacob Stauffer. But when Jacob hires the cheerful dynamo, he can't imagine the profound effect she'll have on his frightened sister, his motherless daughter, and on his own tender heart-or how much they'll all miss her if she leaves. ". another spritely early American romance."-Romantic Times, Top Pick review

"I liked how she moved around to work with different families, going where the Lord led her and where she was needed. She liked to help families and she was needed here since the Annie needed someone to believe in her and that she could think on her own. What Annie felt mattered. Hope seemed to have a way of knowing what to say to make someone feel better about themselves. Good book. I would like to read another like this. Neighbors helping each other at harvest time. Ladies all coming together to cook meals for them."

    " Loved this book. I found myself laughing out loud at some of the funny sayings Hope would come up with. These endeared me to her character. I love her positive attitude and her determination. Read it. "

    " I found this to be a good story diminished by gimmicky writing. Two things bothered me. The story was set in Texas, but the main character seemed modeled after Ruby in Cold Mountain, including the Appalachian dialect. It might have worked if the other characters in the area spoke the same dialect, but no one else did, so to me it stuck out as annoyingly weird. She also kept speaking in muddled cliches that really grated on my nerves, and even if you found them cutesy at first, the gimmick was vastly overdone to the point of being nauseating. It was overall an entertaining story, not without its charms, and a fast read to fill a stormy night, but I would have enjoyed it so much more and given it four stars if the protagonist seemed like an authentic plainswoman instead of Ellie Mae Clampett channeling Archie Bunker--that totally ruined the romance for me. She was a most NOT charming heroine indeed. However, the price (free) was right. "

    " This novel has potential. Like the novels of Nicolas Sparks, this would be a better movie than book. My biggest complaint was the author's difficulty in allowing her story to "unfold." Indeed, she was often redundant, almost seeming to want to assure the reader did not miss a single point she intended. Also, her use of dialogue to build her characters detracted rather than added to the story and at times, created inconsistent cartoons, rather than the charming people intended. I liked the positive attempt to create a main character with Learning Disabilities and an Attention Deficit as dimensions of her character, without overcoming disability as the focus of the story. "Forevermore" is as it's title implies, a simple love story. Despite my governs with the author's style, I enjoyed the story. "

    " This book is such a sweet story! From the beginning I was pulled into Hope's crazy antics and sayings and Emmy-Lou's sweet love. The whole family has their unique characteristics that help them band together when trouble hits. This story is a great story and I definitely recommend it! "

    " A free book I picked up, kindle-for-pc. First I think I've read by this author, easy read and probably predictable like a lot of Christian fiction but that's usually ok with me! "

    " Loved this book, I read it in two days. If you like Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers, then this series is one you will like too. The silly and loving ways of Hope will keep you wanting to read more and more. By the end of the book I felt like I new each one of the characters and hoping for the story line to continue. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. "

    " Part of the "only in Gooding" series. I loved the heroine Hope. She's illiterate and doesn't speak well but she's the kind of woman who you instantly take to and wish she was your friend. I loved this book! "

    " The character Hope is funny, quirky, and charming, and so makes for a good read. The conflict faced by the family and the resolution of the conflict are annoyingly disappointing and predictable. It almost could ruin the whole thing for a person, but overall the story was a good read. "
