Prairie Song by Mona Hodgson ~ Review

Prairie Song (Hearts Seeking Home #1)Lucie's Review:

Anna and her family are ready to start over in a new land full of promises after the death of her brother in the Civil War, so they join a wagon train and head west. Along the way friendships are tested and Anna must makes tough decisions in this new prairie drama.

A full cast of characters and compelling characters, many of them from Ms. Hodgson's novella  prequel series Quilted Hearts. In my opinion, it might be a little harder to get into this book if you haven't read the prequels, because some details seemed dependent on the reader already knowing what transpired in the previous series.

The characters were compelling, both Anna and Caleb had pasts and secrets that they kept. But they both grew so much over the course of the book. Caroline and Garrett also had to overcome their own struggles.

The faith track in this book was well done, with little moments here and there, that laid the foundation. There was a lot going on in this book, with moments that really made me smile. This book was more of a story of the many people who went west and how they learned to work together and the hearts that were changed forever.
