review 1: I really enjoyed this novella by Janet and Jillian! I enjoy mail order bride stories but this one was a little different in that the two women met on the train going to Montana to meet their two future husbands and ended up not marrying the men they were intended to marry! Both men would not have been right for them, one being a cold-hearted, mean man and the other a widower who wasn't ready to marry again. The ladies instead met men who weren't looking for marriage but found the right person anyway! Christina and Annabelle were both lonely women who just wanted to belong to a family and God led them to where they would be the happiest and most loved. Thanks, Janet and Jillian for a great book!
review 2: I liked both stories very, very much. They both aff
... moreirm how God can change circumstances WITHOUT our manipulation!So often we judge people on their looks, body language, accent...but only God knows what is on the inside and sometimes lets us see some of that when it is important for us to do so. In "Home For Christmas", Christina's intended husband has a stone heart more interested in a slave than a mate. He has little compassion and attempted to pass himself as a Christian with no heart knowledge of Christ.In "Snowflakes for Dry Creek", Adam Stone is trying to fill his lonely life with drink and gambling, with no real purpose to be healed or help his children be healed from the loss of his wife. His brother, Gabe desires to know Christ better and learn about a new way of life. He appreciates the little things about people that are special, and shows it by display of giving and affection. Annabelle finds out that the kind of man she wants cares very little about scars on the outside, but what a woman is like on the inside!Janet did a superb job on this latest book! She continues to grow with her intuitive descriptions of home, hearth, and family. Dry Creek could be a place I would like to visit! Jillian gives real feeling and breath to her main characters. She is a romantic at heart. less
