De: Jody Hedlund

Narrado por: Esther Wane

Wealthy Arabella Lawrence flees to British Columbia on a bride ship still wearing the scars of past mistakes. One of the few single women in the boomtown, she immediately has suitors, but she is determined not to find herself trapped again by a poor choice.

Vying for her hand are two very different men. Lieutenant Richard Drummond is a gentleman in the Navy and is held in high esteem. Peter Kelly is the town's baker and has worked hard to build a thriving business. He and Drummond not only compete for Arabella's affections, but clash over their views of how the natives should be treated in the midst of a smallpox outbreak.

As Arabella begins to overcome her fears, she discovers someone in dire need - a starving girl abandoned by her tribe. Intent on helping the girl, Arabella leans on Peter's advice and guidance. Will she have the wisdom to make the right decision or will seeking what's right cost both her and Peter everything?

I loved this book.

This book was so relatable for me. I was able to really feel the the emotions and it was wonderful.
The passion was also very strong I found myself thinking of my own love and the beautiful relationship we have. Loved this book

Loved it

I really enjoyed this book. I loved seeing Arabella go between Pete who she really liked but had to get past her social upbringing and the Lieutenant who she didn't really care for but felt made a good social match. She is torn between continuing the baking she is loving and getting told someone of her station should not do things like that. It was really eye opening as to the social standards of the day even in the new circumstances that Arabella found herself in. I liked seeing how she came on her own as the story progressed.

great story line

The overall story and character development was great! I really enjoy listening to this narrator as well

Courage, Love, Suspense

This was beautifully written, very engaging and suspenseful. I loved the story line of seeking God’s will over society's expectation.

Such a fun clean story!

Great narrator! Great story! I love so much that it’s a true romance but still clean- not overly preachy- just genuinely
enjoyable.

Excellent

I recently discovered this author and I love her books. So glad to find books that don’t have swearing in it or sex. Just loved this series. Thanks so much. Also I really enjoyed the reader. Some readers spoil the book but this is excellent.
