Oklahoma, 1932: Trouble seems to be rolling up like the dust on the dry yellow horizon beyond Henry Ann's farm. Her father is dead and her two rebellious half-siblings are now her responsibility. Then... This description may be from another edition of this product.
"With Hope" is the best book I have read in a long time. The newest best sellers have been somewhat of a disappointment to me lately with several of my favorite writers. I decided to try reading a book written a few years back and was glad I did.
First, but certainly not last!

This was my first Garlick book, but believe me, it will not be my last. I would have to put her up there with Nora Roberts! A beautiful story in a time when it would be very difficult to find anything beautiful. Yes, the story of the wife is very sad, but I really could not find fault with the husband, Tom. Very good summer reading!
Wonderful! The Best One Yet!

I loved With Hope. Dorthy Garlock is the most gifted romance writer I have yet to have the pleasure to come across. With Hope is the first one of her books I read. After Henry Ann Henry's father dies and she's left with her two rebelious step siblings Henry Ann is left with the world on her shoulders. I became so attached to her and all of the other characters in this wonderfully written book. I've read it and reread it.
Highly Entertaining

This was my very first Garlock book. This book was on the list as one of the century's top 50 Romance books. If all the books on the list is this good, then I'm in store for many enjoyable hours of reading! 'With Hope' touched all my emotions: happy, sad. angry, etc. Could not put it down and will continue with the sequel 'With Song'. The characters were so true to life including Aunt Dozie......my favorite!
Absolutley breathtaking!

I LOVED IT! Dorothy has a way of writing that absolutely brings the story to life. I could actually see what all the characters looked like and could picture the farm and the town in my mind. I love the relationship between Henry Ann and Tom, but I have to give it up to Aunt Dozie. She made me laugh everytime. I can't wait to read the next book "With Song". I also love the change of pace in this book from the usual western books she writes. Those are GREAT too! But this one really takes the cake! Thanks for the great reading Ms. Garlock...more...more...more
