Dawn's Prelude – Tracie Peterson
Summary from GoodReads.com
When widowed Lydia Sellers inherits her husband’s entire estate, her adult stepchildren battle to regain the fortune for themselves. Putting memories behind, Lydia travels to Alaska to visit her aunt, where she meets sawmill owner Kjell Bjorklund–and discovers she’s pregnant with her dead husband’s child. What will happen when his family learns about the baby?My Review
I fell in love with the characters in this book. It started out a little slower than I like but that is my only complaint. Lydia’s story was heartbreaking and the adventure to find God’s love and have faith again, not only in God but people in general was truly amazing.
Tracie Peterson has a way of making you feel like you’re standing in the room with the characters and experiencing the bumpy wagon rides as well as the rage at the Gray family! It makes me want to travel back to Alaska and set up my home in a remote cabin.
This is also my first full on Christian Fiction book since I was a kid. It was a delight! I’ll admit I wouldn’t have picked it for myself but through the new book club in Athens, AL it was the one decided upon. I’m glad it was because that was exactly the reason I wanted to join/start a new book club, to get outside of my normal comfort zone to discover new authors.
