Book
Description:
Beth Whitaker isn’t supposed to be a small-town girl. She’s always dreamed of
leaving Willow Grove, Illinois, for the big city, but she feels trapped,
struggling to make up for a mistake that’s haunted her for years. Just when
Beth is finally ready to break free, her sister impulsively buys a beloved but
run-down farm on the outskirts of town, and she begs Beth to help with the
restoration. Reluctantly, Beth agrees to help—and puts her own dreams on hold
once again.
Drew Barlow hasn’t been back to Fairwind Farm
since he was a boy, and he’s spent all these years trying to outrun the pain of
a past he thought he buried long ago. When he learns that the owner has passed
away, his heart knows it’s finally time to do the right thing. Returning to
Willow Grove, Drew revisits the old farm, where he attempts to piece together
his memories and the puzzle of the crime he witnessed so long ago.
Both on a journey to find peace, Beth and Drew are
surprised when they begin to experience a restoration of their own. But when
long-buried secrets break through the soil and the truth unfurls, will it
threaten their budding relationship—and the very future of the farm?
My Review:
I've read several of Courtney Walsh's books. This one is my favorite, so far. The journey Beth travels is one I think many readers would relate to. Expectation can be such a road block to what God intends for us. And Drew's story. Wow. Beth may have been the Hometown Girl, but Drew was the broken boy. With a mystery waiting to be solved and delightful secondary characters, this book kept me up past my bedtime. If you enjoy mystery, romance, and small town stories, this is the perfect book to read. I purchased the Kindle edition from Amazon.
