Bending Toward the Sun by Mona Dodson, a review

Emilie Heinrich works at her fathers general store. She's attending classes at the Lindenwood College at her fathers urging. She still finds time to join the Thursday quilting group, at the Brandenburg farm. She's happy for her friend Maren who has found love and will be getting married soon. But that leaves Emilie to wonder if there is love in her future, until Quaid McFarland reurns after the Civil War. When the two meet again there is a romantic attraction. This give Emilie hope for her future until her father voices his opinion. How will her fathers opinion affect her future? You'll have to read it to find out.

This is the second novella in the Quilted Hearts series.  What I loved about this book was the strong family values, christian values, and support of friends. As in the first novella in the series, I love the setting of this book and that it lets feel like you are living in simpler times.

I would recommend putting this novella on your summer reading list. No smut, no dirt, just a nice relaxing read.

I received the Kindle version of the book for free from Waterbrook Multnomah's Blogging for Books program for the purpose of reviewing. My thoughts and opinions are my own.
