This book is now on my list of favorite Civil war era books!!
I loved how Shannon McNear explained both sides of the war and her descriptions of events were so realistic. I really enjoyed reading about these characters, Shannon McNear brought them to life and made me invested in their outcomes right from the start. I can not more highly recommend reading a book! Its full of adventure, survival, compassion, love... It has so much to offer.
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars for the beautifully crafted characters, the inspiring story-line, and for the great description Shannon McNear gave of both sides in the war.

Oh WOW This book was simply amazing!
I have not read very many books by Amy Clipston but this one was Great. Such a compelling story about listening to what God has for you even though it is hard and you do not always have support. God uses these times to grow us and show us the way we are suppose to go. A truly great read that made my heart happy ! I highly recommend getting this book into your hands!
I volunteered to read this book from Zondervan Fiction in exchange for my honest feedback, the thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

I was easily drawn into this from the first page, it made me laugh throughout and I liked both Stephanie and Morelli.
I don't think I would have figured out who was behind it all, at all, but I always knew there was something a little iffy about the person.
I'd be interested in continuing the series as I have visions of Stephanie and Morelli getting it on at some point in the future.
To save me buying the next God knows how many books in this series I'm really thinking of joining my local library, since it's more or less just down the road.

DNF at 43% after 10 days of reading.
This was a little too much sci-fi for me.
I read books for the romance and after 164 (43%) pages, apart from Elder liking Amy and getting jealous over his friend's interaction with her, there wasn't any. It was mainly about the ship and its running and how Amy was different to everyone else looks-wise and how Eldest didn't like her.
I think if the plot had played out a little quicker I may have continued to the end but with how it was plodding along, I got bored and couldn't find the enthusiasm to continue with it anymore.

DNF @ 65%
I expected this to be a traditional romance--girl who doesn't know her past/has bad upbringing finds love with someone who makes her realise her true potential--and it might have turned out like that in the end...but it was taking so long to get there.
It seemed more about a girl growing up and wanting to find her past than a romance and i got bored. I read for the romance in books and this was very sorely lacking up to the 65% mark.
The pregnancy so early on threw a spanner in the works for me and i struggled from there.
