My Heart Belongs in Glenwood Springs, Colorado: Millie's Resolve by Rebecca Jepson

5.0

My Heart Belongs in Glenwood Springs, Colorado is a historical fiction novel by author Rebecca Jepson. The setting is Glenwood Springs, Colorado: late 1800’s.
Millie Cooper, the heroine, is the nurse of her ex-boyfriend’s wife and mother. She remembered her training as a nurse when quizzed but could she remember when her skills were needed?
John Drexel, the hero, was the one who kept Millie and his brother, Stephen, from getting married so many years ago. Now Stephen is married to a high society girl and Millie is her nurse.
I believe the author wrote this novel so the reader could see how God can bring good out of our trials. I wanted to read this book because I like the My Heart Belongs... series. It was a sad thing to lose Florence, the wife, to Typhoid Fever. However, It was remarkable how the high society family pulled together with the staff.
I liked this quote spoken by the preacher, ‘Marriage is a sacred institution, a covenant ordained by our gracious Lord. In it we find that mystery, that unfathomable union between Christ and His Church.’
This book had me eagerly reading from the beginning to the end. Lots of twists and turns. I recommend this book to fans of the ‘My Heart Belongs’ series.

I received this ebook complimentary Net Galley and was under no obligation to post a positive review. The opinions expressed are my own.
