Although...the woman loses her whole family & is wracked with guilt & pain. She moves in with a widower & his son. This is in a very religious Mennonite community. There is no immorality, of course, and there are mean people, of course. The characters didn't feel real to me. The guy was sweet and you wanted good stuff for him, but he was often a stock character; and the conversion didn't feel true. It isn't just that she came back to God but that she came to choose to belong to the community, without much consideration of what it would mean. It's one of those pioneer love stories that has a lot of humorous moments as well as some tearful ones. Summer Steadmann's journey to Oklahoma in the early 1900's with her family was interrupted by their deaths from cholera. She ended up stuck in a small town in Kansas, wanting to die herself. Enter Peter Ollenberger, a widower, who needs a teacher for his injured son. You can probably guess where all of this leads. It's not quite a predictable as one might think, however, as the author throws in several unexpected turns. It's an enjoyable read. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML: All alone on the Kansas prairie, Summer Steadman has few options. With her husband and children lost to illness, she has no desire to continue on farther west to where she and her husband planned to build their future. Instead, she seeks employment in a small Mennonite community in order to be near the graves of her family. Widower Peter Ollenburger, the local gristmill owner, needs someone to teach his young son. When he hears of a "learned woman" in town, he believes she is the answer to his prayers. He soon discovers, however, that helping this outsider may have troublesome consequences. There is little this father will not do for his son, but as the boy begins to look at Summer as more than a teacher, Peter must make a choice. Does he marry this woman to give his son a new mother, or does he marry only for love? Will Summer's broken heart ever be able to love again? .Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
