Anne by Rena Groot: Prairie Roses Collection Book 27

Set in 1881, a treasure of a story. Simply, deeply, faithfully told. Anne is a new mail order bride on a wagon train when her husband is killed. Her travels and trials from there are full of deep pain and great joys, supported by scripture. Beautiful descriptions of the scenery as they travel. Several historical lessons of the areas they went through. Rena is a great storyteller!

I received this book free from the author, publisher and CelebrateLit book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
