By the age of 11, Lilly had suffered more horrific circumstances, than any adult should have to bear. She lost both of her parents and the only home she ever knew, then was forced to move away from her brothers and sisters.
Why had God allowed all of this tragedy?
Pa had found the perfect home for her before his death. Through her new family’s loving care and instruction, Lilly grew into a beautiful young lady, filled with compassion, intelligence, and having a strong faith in God.
When she met Tommy, her heart flipped! How could she make all of the life lessons she had learned, her faith in God, and Tommy fit into God’s plan for her life? Was Tommy truly part of God’s plan for her?
Tommy and his mother’s past brought possible danger to anyone close to them. Could Lilly put her family through that? Should she abandon Tommy and the feelings she had for him? Could prayer be the answer?
With more circumstances beyond their control fighting against them, it seemed their troubles would never end. Would God allow her the Desires of her Heart?
A Christian Historical Romance with a Western flair is a MUST Read book for me! I really enjoy Historical Romance and add in Western and Horses, and I am intrigued. Where He Leads by Lynne Lanning is Book 1 in the Desires of the Heart Series and I was very excited to read it.
The time is the 1800's. Lilly has had a difficult life. Both of her parents has passed away by the time she was 11. Her Dad had made living arrangements for Lilly and her 6 siblings before he passed. Lilly was sent to live with cousins Daisy and Sam, but she was separated from her siblings. Lilly feels blessed to have been in the care of Daisy and Sam, she is now a young woman who has a strong faith in God. She meets a young man named Tommy and she instantly falls in love. She knows she needs to follow God's plan for her life and is wanting to do so. Her Heart is really falling for Tommy, but Tommy and his mother have a dangerous past. Lilly is questioning if she should let herself fall deeper in love with Tommy or is it too dangerous for her family, who she dearly loves. Do Tommy and Lilly have a future together? Will Lilly follow God or follow her heart?
WOW, this is such a heart tugging book, but also a Page turner. I was hooked into the story from the very beginning. The LOVE of Family, Faith in God, and all that Lilly endured in her life, even by age 11, really made this book a GREAT read. I LOVE how the author pulls the story together and the book has a strong Christian theme. The book wasn't predictable and really had me on the edge of my seat at some points. FANTASTIC BOOK!
