Love Can Come Home Again., September 6, 2005
This review is from: Love Finds a Home
This is book 8 in the 'Love Comes Softly' series which took ten years to complete. This is the wind-up for the Davis family which has grown too large and scattered that getting them back together for a reunion just wouldn't work; such events were unlikely in those days as the distance was too great and travel too difficult and expensive.
In this conclusion, Bea had moved to Boston where the excitement of being in a city full of activities and historic sights was worse even than her little prairie town. In the bigger towns, as I've found to my despair, you find yourself restless, lonely with an emptiness inside which seems impossible to fill. Her choices, as were mine in coming 'home' again, brought harm and discomfort instead of the peace she wanted. Decisions are sometimes made on the spur of the moment and not well thought out, thus not so rewarding as she'd wish it could be.
She takes on an unexpected responsibility which strikes a responsive chord in my heart. She is a courageous young woman about to enter another phase in her life because the one person she never expected to see again, the love of her life, surfaces and causes some havoc and much joy to which she is entitled.
Ms. Oke from Canada has written several series of books and devotionals. She has had a very prolific career in her area of Christian writing. There is a biography of her written by Laurel Oke Logan and a cookbook by Barbara and Deborah Oke.
