A very entertaining story!

I normally don't like stories that go back and forth with different characters however this one made a lot of sense when it came to the end. I really enjoyed getting caught up in the different families and was totally shocked in parts of the story. This was a wonderfully entertaining book!

Good

this book is one that shows how people back in the days of the early 1800s had to start families and ranches.

Enjoyable reading!

I definitely recommend this book. I will gladly read more by Elaine Littau. The story is well-written and the characters behaved realistically.

Elaine's second book in this series was as interesting as the first and as all the books in her first series. I was intrigued with her characters and how she intertwines them all throughout the series. Elaine writes from her heart, developing characters with feeling and emotions that will make you feel you know each one intimately. Her love for the Lord comes through the troubles the characters endure. I was very impressed with Elaine's desire in a written plea at the end of the book for others to know the Lord as she does. It was also a pleasant surprise for me to see in the book her use of knowledge gained from my own book which she had told me she used as research for some scenes in her book. I thoroughly enjoyed Capture The Wandering Heart and look forward to the next book in this series.
