The first book in the English Garden Series...Wonderful book! This is my favorite all time series. Wonderfully romantic. I could not put any book in this series down. I felt the emotion that the characters did. Lori Wick draws you into the story. Must read!!! Highly recommend anything that Lori Wick has written.

This is a wonderful book. The storyline grabs you from the first pages and I actually read it in one day due to my interest. (rare for me) The female characters are not ditsy, flimsy women which was nice. I will be reading book two in the series as soon as I can. I recommend this book as a good, faith inspiring, easy to read and relaxing book.

A confirmed bachelor, William Jennings, is left to care and raise his relative's three young children. He's thrilled to have a son to carry on the family name, but doesn't know what to do with precocious Penny, a 6 year old girl who desperately needs a mother.

Into this setting enters Marianne Walker, a neighbor with intelligence and faith. As with most of her books, Marianne is preachy at times but is a decent, likable character. This book isn't as bad as some of the others in the series, but there are still better ones to read.

I love this series. It reminds me of Pride and Prejudice, but with religious undertones. It was fabulous, and you should read all four in the series.
