The Love Inspired books, published by Steeple Hill, are among some of the sweetest Inspirational Romance books I love to read. Each book is based on Faith, Love, and God’s word. These books remind me of the innocent days gone by. The Authors each have a different story to tell and each bring about a sense of peace by journey’s end.
This week, I’ve read Finally a Family by Carolyne Aarsen and His Small-Town Girl by Arlene James.
In Finally a Family, Carolyne Aarsen touches on a subject that has caused many fights among family; the reading of the will. Hannah Kristoferson once thought that the man she considered to be a father, had left and never given her a second thought. Ethan Wetserveld has sworn off women and is rather upset, an understatement, at what is Uncle Sam has done.
Hannah is called to the hometown of Sam; the only man she ever knew as a father. She’s been called in for the reading of his will. With no clue as to why she would need to be there, she is astonished once she finds out.
Ethan has worked his Uncle’s farm for years. When this Hannah woman is called in to hear the will, he is beyond mad about what his Uncle has written. However, with determination and prayers about, Ethan not only has his work cut out for him, but must learn that every “city woman” is not the same.
Can these two work together and fulfill Uncle Sam’s will?
For Tyler Aldrich, he just wanted to get away and have some peace. However, when he reaches Eden, the type of peace he was looking for, is not the type he finds. Charlotte Jefford knows what type Tyler needs. Showing him the meaning of family, love, and what it means to have God in your life, Charlotte shows him that money is not everything.
In Arlene James’s His Small-Town Girl, Tyler learns what family truly is. Never being around people of little money, he realizes that he is the odd ball in the town of Eden. Soon, he also comes to see what is more important than anything that money can buy; God. God is the only One that can give us peace – The peace that passes all understanding.
Both of these Love Inspired books were great. They always leave me wanting for more at the end, but the journey through the characters and their trials is always amazing. I only with that life was a simple as these books.
