Under the Starry Skies story takes place in New Mexico, around 1916, with the Mexican Revolution and
World War One happening, and making an impact on a lot of decisions made by the main characters.
This story was interesting because there was a good amount of historical fact
interwoven with the fictional account of Cassie Barton and Brandon Dubarko, and Tracie told the story with her amazing talent from God, with a very well
structured plot, personable characters, and engaging content. Cassie's dad worked for the Santa Fe Railroad,
as did Brandon Dubarko. Brandon worked under Cassie's dad, and promised to take care of her, if anything should happen to
Mr. Barton. Tracie Peterson's style of writing always keeps my attention, it's well structured, and most importantly, she blends seamlessly
the true message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ into the plot. It's natural, and is a good witness for both Christians and non-Christians.
The villian in Under the Starry Skies was truly nefarious, and I was wondering how the author would work out that part of the plot, which she
did really well. This is a clean, Christian historical fiction book that tells a sweet story about a relationship that develops properly, and with the Lord Jesus
as a focal point in their decision making. One criticism, is that I hope she tells more stories without including Christmas in them. I always enjoy reading her
books and rarely do they include holidays as part of the plot. I received this book free of charge from Bethany House publishers in exchange for an honest review.
