5.0 out of 5 stars A fine continuation of the series, February 13, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Birthright (Song of Acadia #3) (Hardcover)

Having enjoyed the first two books in the Song of Acadia series, I was anxiously awaiting the third book and I wasn't disappointed. The authors seamlessly transfer the focus of the story from Catherine and Louisa to Nicole and Anne. Even though I had grown attached to the first two characters, I enjoyed reading about their daughters' lives. The book again reminds people that God works in ways we might not foresee, but if we trust in Him we will always be rewarded. I also enjoyed the geographical change in much of the storyline. It was a very good book!

This review is from: The Birthright (Song of Acadia #3) (Paperback)

Oke and Bunn continue their story of the babies who were raised in the "wrong" families, now grown young ladies with lives of their own. Anne feels happy and contented as a doctor's wife and is looking forward to the birth of their first child when tragedy strikes. Nicole, traveling to England to claim her birthright, is torn between her sense of duty and following her heart. Oke and Bunn weave another fine tale of God's love and plan for these two lives as the Song of Acadia series continues.

This review is from: The Birthright (Song of Acadia #3) (Paperback)

This book is great! It's been a while since I read the first two books in this series, and I was surprised that it was so easy for me to pick up right where they left off.

This is the story of Nicole's journey to England to take her place as the heir to her Uncle Charles. Her ideas of duty and responsibility, but also her need for change and to find her own place in the world are at the heart of the novel.

I don't want to give away too much of the plot--especially the surprise ending, but needless to say, this book will keep you charmed through the end--through all the heartache, sorrow and joy that comes through in colonial America.
