After two long years, hardworking dairy farmer Andrew Bjorklund is thrilled to see his fiancée, Ellie Wold, again. But when materials to build their new home are delayed, Andrew grudgingly postpones the wedding. While Ellie works at the post office, Andrew finishes their new barn. Soon a tragedy threatens their future and forces them to fully rely on God.

Lauraine Snelling, an award-winning author of over 50 inspiring books, set this compelling novel in Blessing, North Dakota, circa 1900.

Read many of the Bjorkand family’s stories. This one was about grown up Andrew and Ellie. Andrew as a child made me laugh a lot. Funny but caring little kid.

Enjoyable story real people’s problems

The story is fantastic as all of the Red River stories have been. However, the audio version has some pretty major glitches in that the chapters do not live up at all! I hadn't been having any of these problems with the previous books. For example, the audio will have a pause and then say, "Chapter 35" and it's only halfway through chapter 18, and if you set a timer for the end of a chapter, it will stop mid-sentence or even mid word!

But this did not take away from my enjoyment of the novel. Andrew especially needs to grow up and mature some before he can marry his Ellie, and some very hard life lessons and difficult circumstances serve to help him do so.

Amazing story! But there are glitches in the audio

I just can get enough of this amazing author and narrator .! Beautifully written and expertly read ,this story took me away from the present into a part of history I could only visit thru this book . As an added bonus we go with God as lauraine weaves scripture with life and teaches us how to live and thrive in God's word !!
