Adventurers, families, outlaws were all driven west in the 1860s by a longing for endless blue sky along with wild and wide-open spaces. Tracie Peterson, from her own Montana home, paints an unforgettable portrait of this rich, rugged landscape, populated by strong and spirited characters. When Dianne Chadwick urges her family to move west to her uncle's ranch in the Montana Territory, she has no idea that her new life in the rugged frontier - and even within her uncle's home - will not be the idyllic adventure she expects. But first she has to survive the arduous wagon journey with the help of guide Cole Selby, whose heart seems to be as hard as the mountains he loves.©2005 Kathleen Krull (P)2008 Recorded Books,LLC Christian Fiction Fiction Genre Fiction Historical Fiction Romance Westerns Adventure Montana

This is one of the best books I have listened to in months. However, the narration is not good. Her voice is not really pleasant,but I could live with that except: the last few chapters are difficult to listen to. She has times that it sounds like her lips must be dry and she stops to lick them and there are silent spots where all you hear is narrator's breathing.

awesome book, poor narration

I almost closed this book after the first few hours because my heart couldn’t take any more tragedy- but then I was reminded by stories of my own pioneer ancestors that such tragedies were very real and I could honour their sacrifices more completely by better understanding them- this story is compelling and gripping- my emotions were completely engaged. I can’t wait to hear what happens next and how Travis is going to get out of his most
current ill advised jam-

Captivating

I enjoyed learning the difficulties of the days of the formation of the western USA. The families in the wagon trains, the Indians, and family relationships. It made me feel I was a part of the story at times.

A Good Book on the Historical West

The reader licking/smacking her lips drove me crazy. Maybe needed to move the mic away from her mouth. Otherwise she did a great job!

Good Story line.

I bought the audio version of this book and I must say, it was one of my best picks of choosing from a first time author that I have never read anything from...this book is amazing! I have listened to this narrator before and just love her narration, I am not sure what the other reviews are so negative about...she does a wonderful job!!! Highly recommend!!!

Love the book and the narration!!

If you could sum up Land of My Heart in three words, what would they be?

Discovery, acceptance, practice

What did you like best about this story?

From the first to last words in this book, Christ Jesus and His redemption is displayed in novel which sets out perfectly a real life scenario. I want to listen to books that are Bible studies in themselves always for sure sticking to good theology, which this one does.

Which scene was your favorite?

At the end of the book, last chapter....Diane hitting home what Cole's heartache really was all about.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Diane's uncle sharing his former life story.

Any additional comments?

This book and I'm sure the series (I am going to start book 2) are a must listen.

Great Blessing, this book

I could stop listening to this book. Not just a love story but the struggle of a family and how they learn to trust God.

A great novel of a wagon train journey to Montana.

I loved the story line. I found it difficult to listen to the narrator taking breaths and licking her lips.
