In 1933 Louisville, Kentucky, even the ongoing economic depression cannot keep Piper Danson's parents from insisting on a debut party. After all, their fortune came through the market crash intact, and they've picked out the perfect suitor for their daughter. Braxton Crandall can give her the kind of life to which she's accustomed. The only problem? This is not the man - or the life - she really wants.
When Piper gets the opportunity to volunteer as a horseback Frontier Nursing courier in the Appalachian Mountains for the summer, she jumps at the chance to be something other than a dutiful daughter or a kept wife in a loveless marriage. The work is taxing, the scenery jaw-droppingly gorgeous, and the people she meets along the way open up a whole new world to her. The longer she stays, the more an advantageous marriage slips from her grasp. But something much more precious - true love - is drawing ever closer.
Best-selling author Ann H. Gabhart invites you into the storied hills of Eastern Kentucky to discover what happens when one intrepid young woman steps away from the restrictive past into a beautiful, wide-open future.

Great

•Faith was natural in conversation
•Clear narrator with ability for different accents
•Truda's character was so fun and realistic, it made me feel like she was my aunt
Neutral:
•Sad things involving animals
•The story felt really slow at times
•I would've loved to have heard more of the backstory of Jaimie and Piper but we only got a few of their memories so I didn't get the hype about their past connection
Cons:
•The friendship the girls formed in the beginning of the book was so vibrant and center stage as I thought it would be throughout the whole book but it fizzles out after a couple of chapters to focus on other aspects of the story
•Didn't connect with either male lead enough
•More of Truda's backstory with Jackson or even of herself would've been interesting
Lovely Quick Read

I felt Piper's struggle to find what she wanted not simply comply with her father's wishes.
Aunt Truda was a delight! No spoilers but her story alone is worth the read.
Oh, and Jaime...❤ After losing everything in the crash, he only has his heart to offer.
Read/Listen to this wonderful Depression-era dramatic story.

The only reason I didn't give this a 5 star was because the ending was so predictable, and the thoughts of our main characters, "Danny and Jammie" took too much of the book. I would have enjoyed more of the Appalachian stories.
It has intrigued me to want to read more.
Very enjoyable
