Guilt followed her across an ocean. Grace called her home.
Desperate to leave Hooke Manor, Keely Boyle does what she feels she must in order to flee England for America, hoping to make a new life with the help of a man who befriended her years before. But when she arrives at Eden's Gate, a large cattle ranch in the shadows of the Tetons, it is William Overstreet who offers her a fresh start.
William-a steady, God-fearing man-doesn't need the complications falling for the pretty Irish immigrant would bring. He has enough problems already: water on the range has been poisoned and cattle are dying. But even as danger stalks the ranch, William can't stop himself from being drawn to Keely's fiery spirit and winsome ways.
When Keely's secret sin is exposed, her world-and the love she's come to cherish-teeters on the edge of ruin. But through danger and redemption, both she and William will find that belonging isn't a matter of where they stand, but Whose grace holds them fast.
Set against the rugged beauty of 1890s Idaho, To Find Where She Belongs is a tender story of redemption, love, and the God who can turn even our deepest shame into belonging.
As we reach the end of The British are Coming series and the actual book for April in the Christian Fiction Reading Challenge, I have so many mixed feelings. But . . . Thank you, thank you, thank you, Robin Lee Hatcher, for giving me some hope for dear sweet William. I adored William throughout this entire series as he played a role in all but the first coupling in this series, and he has really grown on me. He deserves his own happily ever after, and I’m ever so grateful that it’s happened. And, while this is the first book in the series, they can all literally be read independently as a standalone. I’ll forever say you should read the whole series you don’t ‘have’ to.
Not going to lie, I never bonded to Keely. I just didn’t, and part of me feels terrible for that, like I just didn’t connect to a fictional character. Is that a me flaw, or do other people feel bad for that too? Anyway! Her story is compelling; you really do feel for her. But her, she feels flat. I never really, truly down deep, understood her motivation and character. I understood the ‘why’, but I didn’t get the ‘her’. Truth, if it wasn’t for the fact that William fell in love with her, and I can’t deny him a happy ending, I don’t feel like she deserves him. I feel like I should be gasped at and scolded for feeling that way, but . . . I do feel that way.
There’s a solid story overall that draws you in and carries itself forward to the eventual happy ending that it deserves. I felt the end was a bit too tight and could have easily keyed in for another 100 or so pages to really understand William’s forgiveness, among other things that I won’t spoiler here. Let’s just say a LOT comes to light in the last 30 minutes (on audio book) that I wanted more depth and flesh to. But I’m happy for William, and I think that was the perfect ending to an amazingly great series. Now, go forth and read them. All or one but preferably all 😀
