Story
Evangeline Keating came West because she had to: after her husband's passing, she needed to build a new life for her young daughter, and marrying a stranger from Montana Territory was her best chance. After a difficult winter journey, she arrives at an isolated outpost called Springwater Station. But the handsome man who's come for her is not her husband-to-be, and Evangeline soon finds herself thrust into a most inconvenient - and highly improper - arrangement.

Bittersweet by Cathy Marie Hake
This was one of the most enjoyable books that I have listened to. Cathy puts so much of Christ into her books which I love.

Christian Historical Romance
Life rarely turn out like you want or expect, but Ivy and Ishmael throw a dozen wrenches at the moving wheels and kick everything out of balance, except God's plan!
This is such a powerful story of grace, mercy, and love!
Perfect narration too!

Wonderful book!
This was another great story by Cathy Hake. So many twists and turns in this story. I just knew everything was not going to come out the way I wanted it to but everything came together wonderfully. Narrator did a great job.

My favorite!
Out of 7 (all 5 of her Gooden series and Letter Perfect and this one) Cathy Marie Hake's books this is my favorite. This book display's God's redemptive love is such an amazing way.
The narrator, Stina Nielson, did a great job. I enjoyed her narrative skills in Forevermore too.
I hope Cathy Marie Hake has more like this one.

Cathy Marie Hake books are the most spiritual novels I’ve read!
This author’s books are very well written and also teach Christian truths and values. I’ve ‘read’ many authors who toss in some ‘Christ talk’ but the Christian theme is woven into her stories in a remarkable way—I believe.

Excellent Christian Love —Better Than I Could Do
When the love of her life is forced to marry another, Laney learns to love others far better than I could do. Galen and his mother go beyond what I would do. But the story shows God’s plan in a beautiful way. Excellent characters and plot. I’m glad I tried one more of Cathy Marie Hale’s books. Narrator is perfect.
