I have read a lot of good books lately. Now that we are out of school for winter break you will find more reviews of books now that I have time to read. One of the book that I have made time to read was The Quarryman’s Bride by Tracie Peterson. Here is a brief description of the book.
Emmalyne Knox and Tavin MacLachlan were destined to be together. . .until the tragic deaths of Emmalyne’s youngest sisters. Family tradition mandates that the youngest daughter should remain single to care for her parents in their old age, and now that daughter is Emmalyne. Her father unyielding, Emmalyne surrenders to her duty, heartbroken. Tavin leaves town, equally devastated.
Years later, Emmalyne’s family moves, and she and Tavin meet again. Their feelings for each other are as strong as ever, but their painful past and Emmalyne’s father still stand between them. Soon both families are in the midst of the growing conflict rising between the workers at the granite quarry that Tavin’s father owns and operates. When a series of near-fatal accidents occur, Tavin must figure out who is behind the attacks before someone gets killed.
Bound by obligation, yet yearning for a future together, can Emmalyne and Tavin dare to dream that God could heal a decade-long wound and change the hearts of those who would stand in the way of true love?
I will have to say that I love the story of enduring love. I also love how Emmalyne has so much respect and love for her parents that instead of running away from the tyrant her father has become after dealing with so many tragedies in his life she instead prays for her father daily that his heart would be softened when it comes to his family. I will have to say that this book is really well written and a very easy book to read. I also loved the main theme as well. And that theme is that no matter what is going on in your life keep your eyes on God and He will see you through. What a great lesson for all of us to learn and to live by.
