This book was almost a DNF for me. The medical terminology is really not historically accurate ("shell shock" wasn't coined until WWI, and this book takes place in the years following the Civil War) and I could not sympathize with Dottie's reluctance to take her children out of an extremely abusive situation. The ending has a frightening climax and struck me as an awfully convenient way to get Dottie out of her marriage and move her on to a new relationship. I just didn't like this book much at all. There was one portion of the story in which Dottie and Jerrod's doctor discuss the reasons why God does not always heal faithful Christians who ask Him for healing that I thought was really explained well. I did enjoy parts of the book, but the weak points were hard to power through.

This was a good story. There were times that it was predictable but I think that every story has those points. I liked Breanna very much. She was very independent and strong willed. The things that Jerrod was dealing with were very interesting. I liked how Lacy put us into his head to show us the two sides of Jerrod.

The story was pretty fast paced. I got caught up in the story a few times and didn't realize how long I had been sitting reading. I didn't finish it in one setting, but it didn't take me very long at all.

The story was unique. It dealt with a few tough subjects but that didn't make it hard to read. Everything was tastefully written and the outcomes were plausible.

Overall I liked this one. It was enjoyable and I wanted to find out what was going to happen next.

I just finished reading the Journeys of the Stranger series, which precedes this Angel of Mercy Series.....can hardly put the books down......thoroughly enjoyed all of them thus far.

I am on my third book of this series now and they are just wonderful. I love the character and how the books take her through the real historical happenings. I am learning so much from them.
