Synopsis

In this third book in the Prairie Legacy Series, Virginia dreams that having a home of her own will surely satisfy the longings of her heart.Through the years Virginia Simpson had learned that Grandma Martys wisdom was right. When God allows something to be taken from you, He replaces it with something better. The longawaited return of Jonathan and their renewed courtship, with a wedding soon to follow, are proof of Gods loving ways. But the inner strength that God has been forming in Virginias life through trials and disappointments is far from complete.

3.5 stars, rounded up. This had a sweet premise, but everything just felt so rushed. The copy I had was 250 pages, but should have been more like 400 with all the content. Overall, great book, but a let down after the first two.......more

Goodreads review by Audrey Kate on May 30, 2021

I am reading these so rapidly, I love them so far! I would have to say number two in the series is my favorite at the moment, but onto the next (and final) book in the set. Definitely recommend!
