I enjoyed these heartwarming stories. Each one was either a thought provoked or a sweet romance.

My one complaint is that whenever the Bible was referenced, it was all in lower case, yet when karaoke or church were mention they were capitalized. The Holy Bible is the written Word of God and should be set apart from any other bible.

These were short stories which could have been put together into one or two books.  They were clean, simple reads, which I enjoy when I just want to relax and enjoy a short story.  I always love an Amish story, and this was particularly interesting to me because it was the reverse of the usual Amish story.  It was about an Englisher wanting to become Amish and what he had to go through to be accepted.  The romance part was sweet. Even though they were simple reads I did enjoy them very much.

These Christian Historical romances are beautifully written by talented authors.  They have a  theme of slavery, a great depth, a Christian lesson, and a beautiful romance.  The men and women were sold, drugged, beaten, and kidnapped into slavery or indentured service.  Sometimes their contract was served but then additional years were added for repayment of their food, clothing, shelter and medical services.  Some times they were never free as they were treated badly and worked to death.  These stories are uplifting and show endurance, hope, and faith.

These are two wonderful books combined into one.  The stories are written in a way that anyone - whether they are Christian or non-Christian - will be blessed and inspired.

Every story is heartwarming and leaves you with a wonderful sense of "divine timing" and how faith pulls one through any circumstance... very encouraging that these stories are all real, leaving you with with a sense of wonder and possibilities!  Very enjoyable and engaging!

I just finished 'The Captive Maiden' It was wonderful. I am crazy about fairy tales, so it is very refreshing to find an author that writes stories so that you can see the fairy tale in a whole new way. I love the way she incorporates christian messages in her stories. From the fight scenes to the romantic parts. If you are wanting a great, clean story with wholesome values. Read this one. All her books are super.

A great clean Christian fantasy! No downsides to this book (except a couple small errors in the text that could easily be fixed with a proof read)!

I receive all kinds of Christian romantic fiction to review here on Joy In Our Journey.  Some of it is well written and clean; some of it is well-written, and some of it is clean...

  Do you know what I mean?

  It's difficult to find Christian historical fiction that is written in a worthy manner, crafted by a literary artist, and still presentable so we're comfortable with our junior high or high school-aged daughters reading the books.

  In When the Heart Calls, Ann Shorey has combined many hours of research about the antebellum time period - following the Civil War - with a gentle love story.  Not just about the love between a man and a woman, but about the love between God and those who are hurting - emotionally and spiritually, and in need of a lot of tender, loving care.

  Here's a quick summary of When the Heart Calls:

  Courageous and unconventional, Rosemary Saxon served as a nurse during the Civil War, a service that has caused most women in town to regard her as unfeminine and even downright vulgar.  Although she would like to put that part of her life behind her, she needs to support herself.  She takes a nursing position with Dr. Elijah Stewart, but whenever they are together, they always seem to do or say the wrong things.  When someone threatens Rosemary, will she find the courage to stand, or will she leave town - and Elijah - forever?

  Since it had been some time since Ann's first book was released in the Sisters At Heart series, I decided to go ahead and read book 1 first.  I just love this series!

These two books very clean, appropriate, and written so well that I could hardly put them down!  They covered several topics about post-Civil War times of which I wasn't aware, so I found that to be very interesting.

These books are wonderful.  The stories are touching and have really good spiritual lessons.  You want to know the ending but they are such a good read you don't want them to end.

The novellas in this collection were fresh, engaging and well-written.  I don't usually read such collections but I wonder why not.  Each can be read one sitting.  Though many of the stories left me wanting to know more, the length of each was perfect for this format.  I heartily recommend it to readers who enjoy Christian romances set in the 19th century North American prairie.

The first of 3 I've read and they are great stories depicting this era in America.  They are clean and interesting stories.

Loved this series. Can't wait to read the next. It's wonderful to read good, clean novels that mention God and shows that we are not in charge of our lives. That God loves and helps us through our mishaps.

Good family book. Humorous parts. Good for christian reading, due to clean content. Would be interested in reading other books from this author.
