Loved it!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I really enjoyed this whole series! Wish there were more, they were so hard to put down...and I was so disappointed when they were done! Hatcher is a very skilled author, and I always look for anything new from her, first!
Promised to Me

Another winner by Robin Lee Hatcher. We need more exciting Christian novels. Many people might think because it is a Christian novel that it is devoid of action and suspense but this is not so at all.
Promises to Keep You Up All Night
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I read a lot of books. Rarely does a book keep me up all night, but this one did. Karola Breit grows in the Lord and in maturity, as she cares for the children of a man who broke his promise to bring her to America and marry her 10 years earlier. While she refuses to marry him her first day in Shadow Creek, Idaho, she cannot refuse to care for his three motherless children, while he gathers his harvest. I can't wait to read the rest of the series--I love prairie romance and immigration in the late 1800s stories, and this fits that bill beautifully.
Warm & Tender

Ms. Hatcher has a wonderful way of telling slice-of-life stories set in small town America. Promised to Me is another fine example. I felt like I was one of Jakob and Karola's neighbors, I knew them so well. I came to love each of the children and longed for this couple to discover their love for one another anew. I'll bet this is another award winner for Ms. Hatcher. It's that good. And since I was born and raised in Idaho, I loved seeing the state so lovingly and accurately portrayed in this historical setting. If you want a feel-good read, you can't go wrong with Promised to Me.
I loved it!

The entire Coming to America series is wonderful, and Promised to Me is no exception. I always learn something new about the grace of God from Ms. Hatcher's books. She is one of my favorite authors. Definitely in the top five. Promised to Me delivered her usual engaging characters and seamless plotting. I felt as if I knew all of the characters because the period details were so excellently drawn. This is a story to treasure and a fine addition to a terrific series.
