What a lovely Christian historical story written with such
emotions you can feel the sorrow, pain as one woman runs for her life leaving
behind a dead husband only taking with her an unborn child and her brother. The
author does a great job with detail of showing us how the wilderness is wild
and dangerous as the characters have one set back after another. Emma has been
through so much losing everything she owns because her husband was not a good
man, the towns people feels
she must have been in on it when in truth she knew nothing. Her brother takes
her on the run trying to outrun the law and the reward on her head. Her brother
has a bad fall leaving him unable to take care of her or his self when a
strange steps in helping them. They want him to be their guide, there is no way
he will take another woman into the wilds, but he is given little choice with
one expecting woman and a man who can’t help his self must less his sister.
This was a very emotional roller-coaster ride that is well worth your time. A
great read with true emotions and faith.
Ms. Woodworth’s really brought this story to live for me as she pulled me in using emotion filled with sorrow, anger, hurt and pain along with excitement, danger and thrills. I had no trouble picturing the events as they unfold. Her character voices are wonderful as she held me spellbound from each character that is hiding something. Her tones are right on the mark keeping the listener on the edge waiting for the next shoe to drop. There are no volume changes, no background noise or any repeating of words. If any breaks were taken I could not tell. Her male voices were just as good as her female voices, you have no trouble knowing who is talking and just what they are feeling. Her character voices are just great as well as her normal voice is very pleasant and easy to listen to. The narrator really pulls you into the mystery as the romance unfolds under danger and deceit. You can feel the uneasiness of the characters as they work through the emotions of loss, facing the outcome and the heart break of the past. Ms. Woodworth’s has no trouble pulling of this very emotional listen that captivates you and holds your attention.
I really enjoyed this story from the start, the author gives you a wonderful story that is vivid you can picture the details she gives in each scene. My heart went out to Emma taking on a journey of this kind can never be easy but to be carrying an unborn child dealing with all the issues that brings has got to be trying to say the least. The fear of not knowing when someone will catch up with you, taking you back for the reward, wondering if your child will make it to take it first breath and if it does will it have a mother. Joseph story is just as heartbreaking he has lost so much and fears to lose even more as the love grows between him and Emma. I liked the plot, the characters, the mystery and how it all unfolds. The author knows how to pull on your heartstrings pulling you in keeping you hooked from the first page. The ending is wonderful I just about cried. The author gives a wonderful clean read with faith as the base and a growing romance coming in a close second.
