My grandma gave me this book to read after I finished my other novel at her house. I found all of the stories enjoyable to read, though the romances were all very slow-burn. The characters found simple happinesses in life and it was pretty peaceful. Great for anyone looking for western Christian romance stories.

That said, it was wild how quickly the couples got married after they admitted their feelings. Made for great conclusions to the stories lol.

Frieda was a doll! She saw a lot more then Derrick and Eliza realised and decided it was her job to help God bring them together. Derrick pushing his feelings aside for so long was a brave thing to do but bull crap too. It seemed like his brother Carl didn't even have a interest in Eliza until Derricks interest was revealed but Eliza seemed to settle for Carl because he was interested in her. In the end it worked out.
