Encouragement by the best

I have read all of the Cheney Duvall series up until now, following each one with late nights as I can't put the book down. As we start the new series with the Irons-Winslow family, I'm excited about the new marriage and the new family that has been begun. I have read other of Gilbert Morris' books, and have loved each one. For those not interested in history, this is a great way to learn while enjoying the lesson. As a doctor, I find the medicine of the time well researched and the struggles of a female physican that I identify with closely. I recommend this series to many people.

Enchanting Novel!

Once again this dynamic father and daughter duo have captured our hearts in this thrilling historical fiction novel. Cheney and Shiloh are again the main characters in this new series. Readers will be amazed at the wonders of the South Seas as described in this book. The characters express such a love of God and each other in their new marriage. Cheney and Shiloh are familiar to us from other books written by these two authors and it is recommended that you read the first series before embarking upon this one. There are references to other characters and situations that wouldn't be known about otherwise. The story is captivating and hard to put down. I highly recommend it to everyone! I am awaiting the next novel in this enchanting series.--- review submitted by Nicole for Christian Bookshelf

Disappointing? No...

I just finished this book about a day ago, and personally, I don't see what's so "disappointing" about it. I loved it and practically had to force myself to savor it, instead of reading it all in one sitting, as I am prone to doing. In fact, I read most parts twice, just to capture everything. True, a lot of the book is essentially a transition from unmarried to married life. But what's wrong with that? I liked seeing how Shiloh and Cheney adjusted, with a little banter and a little affection thrown in. I would have been disappointed if they had been given to large fits of passion or too many (or not enough) arguments. It was a nice balance, and I found myself hoping for a marriage as sharing as theirs seems to be. The slow change in Bain was surprising, as I was used to pretty much hating (or strongly disliking) him ever since he made his appearance. Without revealing too much, I'll just say I was happy with how he turned out by the conclusion of the book, leaving things open-ended. Overall, I found this book to be a much-needed rest from Cheney and Shiloh's dancing around their feelings for each other, as has happened in the entire 8 books before this. They're together, I'm happy, and I can stop tearing my hair out over the matter. I'm looking forward to enjoying the books to come and seeing how they meet the obstacles together.

Worth Waiting For

The new addition to the story of Dr. Cheney Irons-Winslow was definately worth waiting for. It was all we had ever dreamed it would be. Cheney and Shiloh are on a dream honeymoon. Sailing around in the Carribean on Locke's Day Dream. No seasickness, no rude comments about female doctors, and no hustle and bustle of New York. Then a dreadful storm interupts it all, forcing them to harbor on a small island that Bain in running a spice plantation on. When a mysterious disease forces Cheney to quarentine the island, ship, and themselves, Bain is madder than before, and Cheney and Shiloh aren't sure if they will ever return from their honeymoon! This book is a real thriller, and unlike some parts of Driven With the Wind, really fits the characters and is a true part of the Cheney Duvall M.D. series.

The Inheritance

Cheney and Shiloh's honeymoon is interrupted by a fierce storm. Sheltering on a small island, they encounter a mysterious fever epidemic that forces Cheney to quarantine the ship, the island, and themselves. Bain Winslow's illegal activities on the island and Shiloh's attempt to reconcile with him further complicate the situation. Is their marriage in trouble before it barely has begun?...
