I loved the laid back feeling of this book. Anna had lost her parents and was living with Sam and Mary. She loved them dearly, and took great care of them, especially when Mary got sick. Anna had been praying that the Lord was preparing a husband for her, as she was preparing to be a wife. There were a couple of men who had their eyes on Anna, but of course, only one will win her heart and hand. I enjoyed reading this calming writing of a time in the past and it made me wistful for it, myself. When Anna chooses Christian and he chooses her, it is so sweet, calm, and kind. I hope everyone will get this book and relax and enjoy it. You’re really going to enjoy the recipe in the back! 📕♥️

What a beautiful story, Anna Yosemite Bride was to read. Anna moves from Ohio to the Yosemite area, after the death of her parents. Her Aunt and Uncle take her in and she becomes part of their family now. Seeing the majesty of the park is breathtaking to Anna. She is inspired by the beauty of it all. When her cousin takes her on a picnic, they meet up with Christian, who helps them with their wagon. There is an instant spark between Anna and Christian and they both secretly hope it's more. They both feel that God has a plan, but they will let him lead them through their challenges.

Anna Yosemite Bride by Paulette Marshall ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Another great addition to the National Park Brides series. Remember series by different authors so you can pick which ones and when to read.

Anna with to live with Sam and Mary after her parents died. She thinks it's God's plan to prepare her for marriage and a family of her own especially how she has taken care of Mary when she was ill.

Now Anna does a lot of praying for a husband. God works in mysterious ways and when you lest expect it. I hope you pick up your copy today September 18th release day. You'll be glad you did. I was.

Anna Yosemite Bride is a wonderful look into the past.  And a bit of look into when the parks first started in the United States.  Love how Anna met Christian and their courtship.  This book has life, love, and faith in God as the center of a family.  Something that is still in need today of each couple starting their life together.

The premise of this story is two quiet and very faithful people who meet by happenstance. Their attraction seems to grow nearly immediately, but with all due caution they take each step carefully, allowing their true feelings to grow cautiously. You will find it very rewarding as it progresses.
