The light blue book cover of the Truly Yours edition drew me to this historical ChristFic romance. It was originally a Heartsong Presents release, and I found a few romances from that line in the past that I really liked.

The style of this one turned out not to be for me, though. I found the emotional development to be awkward and sometimes rushed, some of the story's elements are repetitive, and the characters and certain key aspects of the story weren't too convincing while others could have used at least a little more originality.

Even so, the fairly short length and the overall ease of the read were enough for me to stick around and see exactly how the couple would make it to their Happily Ever After. Also, while the prominent faith message in the story didn't hold anything new or deep for me personally, I did find it interesting to see how one aspect of it brought about one of the heroine's important decisions.
