Genre: Historical
In the second book
in the Smoky Mountain Dreams series, acclaimed author Sandra Robbins spins a
tender tale of God's faithfulness throughout the generations.
Rani Martin, Simon
and Anna's only daughter, is a beautiful and spirited young woman living deep
in the heart of the Smoky
Mountains
Matthew left Cades
Cove as a child after his father's death. Now he's come back to build a new
life for himself, and it's his dearest wish that Rani be a part of that life.
But the people of the Cove won't let him forget the sins of his father, and Matthew
can't forget the darkness of his own past.
Is there a place
for Matthew in the Cove? And can the light of Rani's love overcome his pain?
MOUNTAIN
HOMECOMING is the second book in the Smokey
Mountain Dreams series, but it
easily stands alone. Fans will want to read the first book, Angel of the Cove, so they know Rani’s
parents romance story.
I found MOUNTAIN
HOMECOMING a bit slow and predictable. Rani is a feisty, argumentive heroine,
quick to judge and jump to opinions. Matthew is hesitant, kind of fearful
acting. I’m not sure why he didn’t state it was his land she was trespassing on
in the beginning of the book, and why he let her believe he scouted for trees
to log, but he did. It made him seem kind of wimpy to me at first, not a good place for
a hero to be.
However, there are
a lot of four and five star reviews on this book, so this is my opinion only.
If you like historical romances that are peaceful reads, then this is a book to
consider. It has a sweet ending. $13.99.
304 pages.
