This is book #1 in the Love Comes Softly series. This is an awesome series for which Janette Oke has won numerous awards. Stays strong throught, to the very last book!
Love Comes Softly introduced the characters of Marty and Clark Davis, whose tragic circumstances brought them to a "marriage of convenience" on the frontier prairies during the mid 1800s. The story of how Clarks patient, caring love mirrored that of the heavenly Father, drawing Marty to faith and to love, has captured the hearts and imaginations of over one million readers on Book One alone!

If you enjoy a romance novel for the romance itself, love slowly being discovered, then this is the book to read. There are no love scenes, but rather a simple, basic love story that touches your heart. I really enjoyed this book and hope to read the other volumes.

The strange circiumstances of this romantic novel will keep you on the edge of your chair until the conflict is resolved and the courage and beauty of true love and deep faith are realized.

Good book. A little different than movie but still good.
My cover looks different from this one, but it's the same book. This is a wonderful story, full of love, Christian growth, and dealing with hard circumstances by meeting them with faith. Not to mention the whole prairie-western thing! :) This book was made into the first of three Hallmark movies and is the first in a series of three books. It's wonderful!
A tragic accident, a grief-stricken young widow, a lonely father and child --- a tender story of two hearts broken by despair finding wholeness through patience, loyalty and faith in God.
