Sister Circle #3
Undivided Heart
Things are ever changing at Peerbaugh Place, and Evelyn Peerbaugh is once again opening her home to new boarders. This time she's got more than she bargained for. With one new tenant whose vanity exceeds all bounds and another who is a doormat to her dominating fiance, it seems these women will never find common ground even as they share one house. But Mae, Piper, Audra, and Tessa are all close by to keep the Sister Circle going. Evelyn even finds the courage to open her heart to new love . . . and she's not the only one! The women of Peerbaugh Place are about to enter a whole new season of the heart."

Sticking with the series just to see how it all turns out. Evelyn's new boarders include a woman who lets her fiance call all the shots and another who's very vain.

This is book 3 in "The Sister Circle" series. As I mention in my reviews of the other 2 books in this series I love these books. However, this book is my favorite of them all so far. I highlight many areas. Evelyn again finds herself with empty rooms at the Peerbaugh Place boarding house. But they're soon filled with new ladies, with totally different personalities, talents and trials. The sisters that were there before them are more than willing to open their hearts and arms to embrace the new ladies if they will accept the offering of their loving care. It is a blessing to read how the ladies support, encourage and share a word of discipline when needed with each other. These ladies will having you laughing and possibly shedding a tear occasionally as well as reminding you God sees and hears all.
Each chapter has a scripture at the beginning of it as well as scattered throughout the book. But there is nothing preachy about it. I'd recommend this book to others as a family friendly, faith based book with real life scenarios in it. I've already started the 4th book.

While I do still really enjoy this series, the books are becoming rather formulaic: new tenants move in, some are Christians, others aren't, those that aren't quickly discover that they should be. Conversion comes so easily to the sisters and their loved ones that it seems unrealistic. Still - since I know this to be the case, it doesn't bother me too much, and there is so much else to like. I've really grown to love all the sisters, and appreciate that the ones from the earlier books still show up from time to time.
I find it difficult to review these books, because they're really very naive... but they seem to be just what I need these days, so I'm inclined to love them all the same.

Merry mayhem
In An Undivided Heart, third in the Sister Circle series, we find separations between people who love each other, healed through the love of Christ. We continue to keep up with the former Peerbaugh Place sisters who have all moved on to new lives blessed by God through their faith. And as in each previous installment, we meet new boarders who bring special problems to be worked through. This is Christian fiction at its best--plain and simple, God working in the lives of his children.

Excellent reading and so enlightening. I can't say enough wonderful words about this series. I can't wait to read the next and final book, and yet I will hate to finish this series. All the people in these books seem so real to me and I feel as though I know them personally.

Love This Series!!!
I am on to the next book in the series. Love these women. The type of women I would love to have as friends. I am enjoying see new Sisters come in and how they turn their lives to Jesus. I am hoping that a thought I had after reading the first book would happen in the 4th book.
On to the next one...

Another good book in this Sister Circle series. Funny how the new characters come to Peerbaugh Place and some you just don't like but by the end of the book, you are totally "in love" with them. Love that these books show how God works in our lives to bring us closer to him and to bring blessings to our lives.

The books keep getting better and better.
This a continuation of Evelyn and the Sister Circle exceeds all my expectations.
For the Lord is good and his love endures forever.
This book is recommended for those who love strong Christian fiction.

Fantastic
I think this was the best book so far in this series. I had a love /hate type feeling with the characters, appreciated bringing in some world & common matters that can affect us. I could hardly wait to turn the next page.

Charming with a touch of spice
All the sisters grow in friendship and love for each other. The new sisters grow together in different ways showing God’s love and commitment to each of us.

Another wonderful book.
I really like the Sister Circle series. Women seem to need other women to balance their lives. I know I do, it brings such joy. In these books the ladies bond and just love the new arrivals into the kingdom. Each book is a must read.

Hard to put down
Another good story as the series continues. I hate that I have to stop reading to sleep or go to work, lol. I am really enjoying this series and am ready to start book 4.

The sister circle is alive and well and growing! This time dealing with forgiving others who have hurt you in some way, even if they are no longer in your life, and forgiving yourself. Delightful story that requires some Kleenex and an open heart.

One of my favorite series about women sharing their faith, trials and friendships
This edition did not disappoint
It built upon the other characters and their friendship and introduced new women to join in the Sister Circle !!!
