For Febraury 2013, we are reading Deeply Devoted by Maggie Brendan



Summary: When Catharine Olsen leaves Holland for America as a mail-order bride, she brings along some extra baggage: two sisters, her mother's set of Blue Willow china, and a tragic past. When she arrives in Cheyenne, Wyoming, she promptly marries Peter Andersen and dreams of starting life over in this rugged land. Peter is kind and patient with Catharine and accommodating to her sisters. His mother, however, is not. When she begins a campaign to sabotage Peter's marriage, Catharine is distraught, worried that her secret past will be discovered. Will her life end up as nothing but broken pieces? Or will these trials make her stronger?

Readers will love negotiating the clash of cultures and class as a highborn European and a Western wheat farmer learn to love one another and trust God with both the past and the future.

The library had this one too--it's sitting across the room ready to go. :)

I started it yesterday morning and finished it this morning.
This was a really sweet Christian romance, and it's written well for the genre. The characters are drawn well and are likable. It was a quick but very good read.

I just started this book this morning and really like it so far!
