Title: MOVING THE MOUNTAIN
Author: Yvonne Lehman
Publisher: Heartsong Presents
ISBN: 1-59789-009-X
Genre: Inspirational/historical romance
Molly Pierpont has returned home. Her husband has died, and her sister passed away in childbirth. Now her brother-in-law, Jonas McLean needs her help with his two young children. His daughter, Beth, has broken her arm, and Jonas can’t handle watching his three-year-old son, all the farm work and household chores alone.
Jonas hates asking Molly for help. After all, she’s just lost her husband and she shouldn’t have to leave her up-scale city lifestyle for a cabin in the mountains of Kentucky. And Molly doesn’t know how to do anything, from milking a cow to cooking on a woodstove! How could he even begin to imagine that she can help?
Molly and Jonas hate needing each other, and Beth loathes her aunt. Is there anyway these hurting souls and find hope and healing and possibly even love?
MOVING THE MOUNTAIN is the first book I’ve read by acclaimed Heartsong author Yvonne Lehman in a long time. It was good to revisit her writing style and to read a book set in the mountains of Kentucky. Living in the mountains of Arkansas, it helped make the setting very real.
I enjoyed the story, and Molly and Jonas were realistic, sympathetic characters that I cared deeply for. I wanted them both to get past their heartbreak and find love again. In many ways, MOVING THE MOUNTAIN reminded me strongly of the story Sarah, Plain and Tall. I recommend MOVING THE MOUNTAIN as a very sweet romance. A recipe is included at the end. $4.95. 171 pages.
