From the back of book: Is marriage their answer? On the historic plains, four women find someone to marry. Will these brides blossom like sunflowers in the prairie heat or wither under the pressures of marriage? Is it really love when...

Sara's trying to escape an abusive stepfather, and her groom marries to please his father?

Jane wonders if the marriage proposal she's received is Luke's reaction to the love he just lost - Jane's own sister?

Mara collects suitors like some women collect teacups - though not the one man she really wants?

Emily says "I do" with the dream of having children but finds her husband has no such desire?

Will these marriages ripen to a full harvest of love or will they produce chaff scattered on the wind? Can these women trust God to orchestrate their lives and loves?

The thing that I really enjoyed about this collection of stories is that it really read like one BIG story. The storyline from the previous story carries over to the next. It makes it a very satisfying read. You really feel like you are in Cedar Springs, Kansas and walk away feeling these people are your friends.

This book was a hard to put down book. I would buy books by this author again. Good for a church bookstore. Clean romance.

I enjoyed the book over all, but I wasn't too keen on the third story. She was not the character I would have wanted to be the heroine, but Denise Hunter handled that well and I found myself, if not liking her at least accepting her. Aside from that I loved it. Would like to read more books by Hunter.

I thought each of the 4 stories were great.. I def. recommend this book!!

The stories were so well written that it was hard to put the book down. I enjoyed the book, and look forward to more of this author.

I love this book, it is the best I have read from heartsong romance. I read this book from front to back. It focuses on the relationship of the two falling in love, instead of drifting off to other relationships and the stories behind them. I fully enjoyed the 4th novel, His Brothers Bride. I teared up in every one of the four novels. So, give or take, its one of the best writing creations I have ever read! I truly love it and wait for a sequel!

I loved this book. I read it in less than one week. It was just too hard to put down. I would recommend this book to anyone!!

I accidently read this book backwards, and it was still very good! I'm not in the habit of reading the last book in a 3 part series, but each of these novellas within the book can be stand-alone books, and don't really have to be read in order--but it probably helps if you do. No matter how you read it, I'm sure you will enjoy each one the 3 stories contained in the book. I recommend it to anyone looking for good clean Christian romance.
