I enjoyed reading this very down to earth, romance and
family novel taking place during the Spring of 1866 in Gallatin
Valley, Montana Territory. What an enjoyable read! I
could not put TRUSTING GRACE by Maggie Brendan down. Each
time I laid it down I could not wait to start reading it again.
Grace Bidwell's husband passed away leaving her their
potato farm. Her very loving father, who is not well, lives
with Grace. One day during her visit to town, she meets up with
three beautiful children in a mercantile store. She takes
note that they are unclean and their clothes are worn and
dirty. Her heart goes out to them and she treats them to
some sweets. While at the store, she hands the owner a help
wanted
ad to post on the wall. She is very much in need of help
at the farm. Grace is so very tired from doing so much
work at the farm, she is hoping that someone will come
through town and fill the help wanted ad. Her father, who
recently had a stroke, can no longer help her. Fortunately, as
the story goes along there are some wonderful break throughs
for her father, Owen.
Robert Frasier who's wife passed away not long ago, left
three surprises for him, her three children she never told
him about. After his wife, Ada, passed, her sister just
dropped off the children to Robert and told him they were
his to take care of now. Being a good man, Robert took the
children in, but soon lost his farm. He drifted with the
children, living off the land, cooking up whatever they could
to survive. When Robert befriends the mercantile owner
where Grace posted the help wanted ad, Robert goes to visit
Grace to fill the position. Robert is a very good looking man
and Grace a very pretty woman, this story just keeps getting
better and better with every turn of the page.
Can Robert ever trust another woman again after what his
wife did? Can Grace let Robert into her heart?
Will Grace's father truly find out what made his health
decline? Who is the mysterious woman now in Owen's life
who will help him? Will Grace ever have the childen she's
always wanted? Will both Richard and Grace learn to keep the
faith and work together for themselves and family?
TRUSTING GRACE is a must read!
I have never had the pleasure of reading Maggie Brendan's
books, but my life will soon be filled with her great
novels! I cannot give too much away, but I would not pass
up on this great read!
With a farm to run, can a widow possibly hope for new
love?
All of her life, Grace Bidwell has longed for children,

slim. Widowed and caring for her elderly father, she
struggles to maintain her late husband’s farm until she

bedraggled children who have nothing but the tattered
clothes on their backs and a load of hurt, pride, and
anger. Believing this is divine intervention in her life,
Grace welcomes them with open arms. As feelings grow
between her and Robert, Grace will have to convince him
that she is a woman who can be trusted with his heart.
