It's always fun to read a book by an author that I haven't discovered yet. I was hooked from the first pages. Julane Hiebert did an excellent job creating memorable characters that her readers would instantly connect with. I had a hard time placing this book in a genre because it's a good mix of so many different genres.
At first, I thought this book would develop at a slower pace, but it didn't. Even though it took a little bit to develop (not in a bad way), I still felt connected to the book early on. As a début novel, I fully expect this series to get better and better. I'm very excited to watch Julane Hiebert develop more and more as an author.
Robin was trying her hardest to help provide for her family and had a sense of responsibility to help her family. That's precisely why she moved to Kansas to do nothing other than help on the cattle ranch. Ty's heart is broken, but once he meets Robin in a very much unexpected way, his heart begins to heal. Part of that is thanks to a little boy who has been left orphaned after a terrible storm. When his ex-fiancée decides to show up in Ty's life again, many questions arise.
I definitely look forward to reading book two in this series, the Brides of a Feather.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Julane is first of all a child of God. She is also a wife to Bob, mother to two living sons,Kip and Rob, two daughters in heaven, two wonderful daughters-in-law, Becky and Tami, and grandmother to six perfectly wonderful grands, as well as an additional three ‘other grands’. She lives with her husband in a wee cottage by a small lake nestled in the beautiful Flint Hills of Kansas.
Though encouraged by many to pen the story of raising two daughters with an incurable disease, she has chosen to incorporate the lessons learned into the lives of her not-too-perfect characters. Her passion is to present the promises and hope found in God’s Word in down-to-earth, everyday experiences through her stories.
Julane loves reading, decorating, junking, antiques, and chocolate! No particular order, but one would be safe to insert chocolate between all other interests.

ABOUT THE BOOK
In 1877 the Wenghold sisters inherited an overwhelming debt with their father’s passing. An uncle they’ve never met offers a solution—come help on his Kansas cattle ranch. The oldest sister, Robin, agrees to go.
Ty Morgan has suffered through a year of misery after being jilted by the town beauty a few months before their wedding. But a tornado whirls an unexpected breath of hope into his heart when he rescues Robin, his neighbor’s newly arrived niece, and a small boy who was orphaned by the storm.
Robin’s crippled leg prevents her from being a real help to Uncle John, but she seems to be exactly who Ty needs to heal his broken heart. Until his former fiancée returns and a mysterious, elusive stranger casts worry over the entire community.
A woman determined to honor her obligations, a man entangled in a long ago-made commitment, an orphaned child in need of security . . . Can God guide these three souls to peace and fulfillment together?
