I enjoyed the Canadian West series. I think Janet Oak is a fine author and I would recommend her books to anyone who enjoys a good Christian love story.

I love Janette Oke and I've loved this series, but this last book was very lacking. I didn't feel sympathy for Christine this time around at all. She was very whiny and at many times simply unlikeable. I was a bit disappointed in this volume in comparison to the rest of the series. It was worth reading to close the book (pun intended) on Elizabeth and Wynn and their children, but beyond that I didn't get much enjoyment out of it.
This was a nice conclusion to the Canadian West series. It kept you guessing. Just when you were sure you knew that Chrissy was going to end up with one young man, another comes to town, and then you think that maybe it will be him. A sweet love story, set in a time and place where holding hands was considered too intimate for a first date.

This was great. As is all of Janette Oke books. I love the way that she writes and continues the story, to where you feel that you really know the charactiers in the books. I feel as if they are close personal friends of mine. When I read another one that continues some of the previous stories, its that much greater for me.
Another great book!
Enjoyed the whole series!
Not as good as the other books in the series but still a very good read.
