"Another great historical fiction book by Tracie Peterson. The novel Hearts Aglow continues the saga of Deborah Vandermark and her family. In this novel, Peterson delves further into the racial injustices the African-American people suffered in the late 1800's in Texas. Once again, she weaves Christian values and beliefs into the plot in a very meaningful way. I thought this novel was even better than the 1st novel in the Strike a Match series."
— Joyce (4 out of 5 stars)
“Peterson takes on more than romance in the second book of the Striking a Match series. The story twists and turns as it follows the lives of men and women who pray for love and justice.”
— RT Book Reviews (4 stars)" I like the way she writes. She is a christian writer and has her characters reference the scriptures many times in their day to day activities. There are always problems that come but they look and listen to God to help them out. There is nothing bad in her books. "
— Leslie, 1/15/2014" What I like about Tracie Peterson is that her books are well written, greatly inspired by history, nice and clean romances, and they have strong Christian messages. I don't ever find it a waste of time to spend an afternoon or evening reading her books. "
— Amy, 12/12/2013" OK, I read the entire series "Heirs of Montana" and it was pretty good. "
— Kelly, 12/8/2013" I love the first book of this series but I loved this one even more, I couldn't put it down. The story line kept be reeled in, I started and finished it in less than 12 hours. I haven't done that in a long time. Getting ready to read the 3rd and final book, I can't wait to see what comes next. "

— Sheila, 11/27/2012" This is a book two in the Striking A Match series and was full of character development, continuing story lines, and drama. It is very much a page turner that I couldn't put down! Can't wait for Book #3! "
— Lynne, 2/10/2012" This is a good book, but it's predictable in parts. It's also seems to lose intensity part way through. I'll read the final part of the trilogy, even though I already know how the main plot will probably end. "
— Sally, 8/6/2011" Fantastic!! I loved this book. Can't wait to see what happens in the next book. The series is easy to follow and the story line is intriguing. Tracie has become one of my favorite authors. "
