Christian Novel Review

Having always been an avid reader, since becoming a Christian I have found a wealth of reading material in Christian bookshops and in various second hand bookshops. I have found that in Christian novels one often finds truths that help in one’s Christian walk. I enjoy reading about how the various characters deal with life, and I also find I am the richer for reading a really good Christian novel. Certain authors, through their books, give you a real insight into their joys and struggles, which I find very interesting. The books which I am going to review are those which I have really enjoyed, and have read at least twice – some books, for example the “Mark of the Lion “ series by Francine Rivers, I have read at least five times each. The first books that I am going to talk about are the latest two novels by Francine Rivers,

A MOMENT TO LOVE by TRACIE PETERSON

Publication date 30/11/25

 A MOMENT TO LOVE is the third novel in the Hope of Cheyenne series by TRACIE PETERSON. Although the novel can stand alone I suggest that you read the novels in sequence if you possibly can.

The beginning of the book gives us insight into what has gone before, and the unusual situation Carrie is in with the only mother she has ever known being her sister, which has led her to feel that her parents cannot possibly love her as much as their “real” children, although they have always treated her with love.

The story starts in Chicago in 1890 with Dr Carrie Vogel breaking her engagement to her fellow researcher Dr Oswald Nelson, because of his theft of her research on the human brain, publishing it in his own name. She decides to go home to Cheyenne to her family……

Pinkerton agent, Spencer Duval, after witnessing his beloved father being shot by bounty jumper Eugene Astor when he was ten years old, has made it his life’s work to find the man and make him pay for what he did. On hearing that the man he has been searching for for so many years is in Cheyenne, he and Carrie, being very good friends, come up with a plan which will change their lives forever……

This is a beautifully written story about faith in God, relationships, family dynamics and truth versus deception. Both Carrie and Spencer have a desire to walk in truth, which comes from their Christian upbringing and personal faith in God. I love the very appropriate Scriptures used by the author to show how the Lord is working in her characters’ hearts……..
I cannot recommend this wonderful novel highly enough. 
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Bethany House. The opinions in this review are completely my own,
