About the Book
Addie Bryant is haunted by her past of
heartbreak and betrayal. After her beau, Isaac Hanson, left the Yukon,
she made a vow to wait for him. When she's sold to a brothel owner after
the death of her father, Addie manages to escape with the hope that she
can forever hide her past and the belief that she will never have the
future she's always dreamed of.
Years later, Addie has found
peace in her new life as a photographer, training Camera Girls to
operate and sell the Brownie camera. But during the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific
Expo in Seattle, Addie is reunited with Isaac. And when her past
catches up with her, Addie must decide whether to run or to stay and
face her wounds in order to embrace her life, her future, and her hope
in God.
Bestselling author Tracie Peterson pens a tender tale where forgiveness, faith, and love conquers all. (Goodreads)
My Thoughts
It has been years since I read Tracie Peterson's Alaskan Yukon Quest series and I was so excited to read another story that starts in Alaska. This book was very interesting to read with the many historical tidbits woven throughout the pages. I loved the Alaskan history but also the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Expo, of which I knew nothing about whatsoever. Addie's character was so well written and I appreciated her strength and how she grew and overcame obstacles. I struggled with Isaac's character and I never really grew to love him to be honest. He assumed too many things and was far too pushy for my liking. I still found this to be an enjoyable read tinged with mystery and romance and how Christ can heal past trauma to give us hope for a future.
Four Stars.
