Forevermore - Only in Gooding!, Bk 2
Author: Cathy Marie Hake
Like a dandelion in the wind, Hope Ladley blows from one farm to the next, helping cook for the field hands during the harvest. Illiterate and often twisting cliches and Bible verses into mind-boggling observations, Hope leaves widower Jakob Stauffer baffled by her unconventional ways.

Cathy Marie Hake has a gift for bringing out the goofiness in us through her characters. This time she does it again in spades. Hope finds herself led by God to a farmer and his sister. She convinces them that they need her, especially Annie. Jakob doesn't see that he needs help on the farm, but because of his love for his sister and daughter, he agrees.

Now, as is classic Cathy, Hope can't just be some ordinary do gooder. No, she has the uncanny ability to mess up sayings. For example, Hope will say something like "a cut above the best" instead of "above the rest". And the funny part is, her explanation as to why she says it her way makes complete sense! As a side note, Hope is completely sincere in her mistakes! She has these "sayings" throughout the book!

Jakob and Annie are struggling in their own lives. Jakob has lost his wife and Annie is hiding from an abusive husband. Neither of them realize what a balm and strenght Hope will be in their lives.

If you've never read any of Cathy's books before, this one is a fantastic one to start off with! She has numerous books that I would refer to as Hysterical Historicals.

What a wonderful book! You can just picture in your mind Hope as she's riding along in her cart with her mule wearing a straw hat. Hope is a hard-working young lady, who really doesn't realize the balm she brings to those she's helping. Lots of laughter in this book, yet deals with some serious situations. Highly recommend.

I LOVED this book! The characters are very endearing and believable. She included some interesting little details about the German immigrants and their farming traditions that I found fascinating. Great and speedy read! Always want to know more about her characters!
