Book Description:
This romantic new book from bestselling author Lori Copeland portrays God's miraculous provision even when none seems possible.
1893--A man who goes only by the name of "Jones" isn't looking for trouble when he happens across Miss Trinity Franklin at the riverside. He is simply on his way to North Dakota to seek the advice of Tom Curtis, a former CN&W Railroad land purchaser. But when Jones spots a lady who is about to become the victim of a marauding band of thugs, he quickly follows his instincts. A handy barrel and a nearby river seem the perfect getaway solution...how was he to know she couldn't swim?
Thus begins an adventure beyond what either could have anticipated. After Jones again rescues Trinity--this time from the river--they find their destination is the same: a small town in North Dakota. A seemingly coincidental beginning comes to a delightful and charming ending when orchestrated by the One who can put the pieces of any lost and broken life together.
My Opinion:
This book is crazy, shocking, hilarious, and really good! It is one of those books that I love the most, because it grabs your attention with the first few sentences and drags you into the story. So many things happen right when you aren't expecting them, and the back cover only skims the top. Under the Summer Sky is a great book when your in the mood to laugh. Filled with hilarious circumstances, it kept me on my toes wondering what could possibly happen to these two next! I love the characters and the way Lori writes. While some of it is just SO crazy; everything was really enjoyable! The only problem I have with the book is actually the cover. (Some of you that may have read my other reviews will already now that I can be picky on this subject, but...) I don't understand why they didn't make the female actress a red head like the character in the book, but I digress. This is a wonderful, lighthearted, adventure! A really cute book!

Hello Amada, I have seen you a lot on blogs that I go to. Been going to check your blog, but long time doing. I like it. Do you ever do give-aways? I would love to read this book of Lori's. Sounds really good. I have a lot of her older books in my Library, but old enough that I've not seen any online. I am going to subscribe to your blog. See you later. Maxie mac262(at)me(dot)com
ReplyDeleteHello Maxie! Thanks for stopping by, and I'm glad you like my blog. I do hope to have some giveaways coming up in February. This was the first book I read from Lori, and it was very entertaining! LOL! I actually won this copy from Goodreads.com. I don't know if you have an account with them, but they have some REALLY good giveaways. :)
DeleteThe cover is cute but I'm with you, it should look like the characters inside. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you Diane! LOL! I never realized how much that bothered me until I started seeing it on a lot of books! HA! You have a great week to! :)
