Lucie's Review:
A Valentine for Prudence is s sweet tale about Prudence who is often looked over, and passed over for her pretty sisters. When on young man sees this he decides to send her a Valentine from a secret admirer. A wonderful heartwarming read that though I've read it before in another publication, was still one of my very favorites in the collection.
The next four stories are all connected and are about Harvey Girls who work at a hotel by the Grand Canyon. Each one follows a different girl in her journey to love.
Armed and Dangerous finds our heroine on a train reading a dime novel. But when the train is robbed, she teams up with the Texas Ranger in order to bring the criminal to justice.
The Richest Knight is a story about meeting in the middle for love. Lillian wants to marry for money, but when she falls for a man who spurned his fortune to make his own way, she must decide what true wealth is.
Shelter from the Storm is a touching and poignant read, about a woman who flees her abusive husband--and just when she thinks she's safe a face from the past shows up to change everything.
Olympic Hopes is an interesting story about the struggles faced when trying to hold the Olympic during the Depression--well researched, I learned quite a bit as I had not really thought about this before.
Beyond the Memories Maime has turned her home into a refuge for Veterans, the day after her cook quits, Hank shows up and agrees to take on the job. But will his secret past keep them apart?
Finding Yesterday is a drama filled adventure, about a man who has taken great strides towards turning his life around with the CCC. Set in Yellowstone, Wyoming.
Goodie Goodie is a humorous read, about new opportunities. When the heroine sees the new guy in town she can't help but laugh at his mode of transportation--until she finds out that she has to ride in it!!
A wonderful collection full of varied and unique stories, some of which I had read before published in another collection. An enjoyable read with themes of faith and forgiveness.
