This is book four in the Leah’s Garden series and although I’ve only read book three previously I have enjoyed getting to know these sisters. Take a step back in time to Salton, Nebraska in 1868 and experience the hardships these women face and how they never gave up on fulfilling their mother’s dream of starting a seed catalog. The cover is so beautiful and tugs you to open up the book and become immersed. Lark strives to do and be everything to everyone and forgets to seek a life for herself until her heartstrings start to pull her toward Isaac but can he be trusted to not disappear. I loved these characters and their stubbornness. A wonderful story of family devotion, faith that binds them together, fulfilling desires of the heart, difficulties that can be hard to bear, and finding love. I wanted more please. I throughly enjoyed getting to know this family as it feels like old friends.
I received a complimentary copy from CelebrateLit. The honest review and opinions are my own and were not required.

A Season of Harvest by Lauraine Snelling is Historical Fiction. This fourth book in the Leah’s Garden series continues the stories of Larkspur, Lilac, Forsythia, and Delphinium, along with their family and friends. Focusing primarily on Larkspur and Lilac, this book provides interesting insight into someone who has reconciled herself to being single. Larkspur accepts the fact she may never marry. So, she focuses on the family farm and building the family’s mail-order seed business.

Meanwhile, Lilac remains open to love even though she walked away from a chance at marriage in the last book. But, in this book, she reconnects with a family friend, and the possibility of marriage looms before her. With men who have to overcome their pasts, this story kept me reading.

While you could read this book alone, I recommend reading the books in order to get to know the characters and their struggles and see how the girls develop and grow into the women God intended them to be. This series is a beautifully written testimony to the power of God’s love and provisions for our lives.

So, if you enjoy historical fiction, check out A Season of Harvest by Lauraine Snelling for yourself.

I received a complimentary copy of this book, but this in no way influenced my review. All opinions are my own.
