Julie Lessman has a new series for fans of hers (and for new readers, like me!) with the first book being "A Hope Undaunted." This is the first book in Lessman's Winds of Change series.
Katie Rose is the youngest child in her family and is determined to not live as her mother or her sisters, living under the rule of their husbands. Katie loves the advances that are being made by women and is going to be one of "those women." Katie has just graduated from high school and plans to attend law school in the fall. Also, her plans include Jack, a man who seems to fit in perfectly with Katie's plans, he has the money, looks, sense of humor and drive that seem to mesh with Katie's plan for her life. Suddenly, Katie finds herself in contact with Luke, or known previously by Katie in earlier years as Cluny, the one kid whom she could not stand. Being forced to do volunteer work this summer by her parents, Katie is working under the supervision of Luke. Given their history and then a new incident, Katie is the opposite of thrilled.
Lessman ties together family relationships, elements of the time period - 1929, and an easy reading style to bring us a wonderful book. This is a great start to a new historical fiction series!
“Available September 2010 at your favorite bookseller from Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group.”

YEAH, Kristie, soooo glad you enjoyed it!!! One holds one's breath when a blog tour as big as this one happens, so I wasn't sure who would like it and who wouldn't, but I am thrilled that as a first-time reader, you did. Thank you for the great review, and if you are prone to posting it elsewhere (Amazon.com, CBD.com etc.), you won't get any argument from me, only my undying gratitude. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day -- you helped to bless mine!
Hugs,
