End of the Saga

This is the end of the saga that started with Where Leads the Heart. Jessica Dubois only has a bit part in this last book, but the story is about her long-lost brother Jasper and his proxy bride Bessie. All four of these stories, wonderful all, Where Leads the Heart, Plains of Promise, The Heart Answers and this one, are included in Colleen Coble's Wyoming anthology. There wasn't as much about faith in this book; I think the theme was God's love for us, and what God has to say about love for one another. The scripture was 1 Corinthians 13, always a favorite of mine, and it was a blessing to revisit the facets of love found there. A great book about learning to love, and finding the strength God places within you.
